Professional Djembe 13X25 DK108

Here's an oversize Mali djembe, carved of solid Lenke wood. Thanks to patient tuning this djembe has a nice, even semi-dry response with solid deep tones and a clear slap. The linear Guinea shape and thick skin make it project well without being shrill. Along with a money back guarantee, here is what this professional djembe features:

  • 12.75" OSD wood, 24.75" full height, 10.25 " OSD base, 19 lbs
  • Contrasting Lenke (Lenge, Lengue) wood, solid one piece construction, uniform thickness, imported direct
  • Wood seasoned and handcarved in Guinea, West Africa, sealed on the outside, karite butter on the inside
  • Thick goat skin from West Africa, wet shaved and hydrated with a bit of shea butter
  • 5mm mix blue low-stretch drum rope for the 33 pairs of vertical ropes, first row of tuning started
  • 4mm orange mix drum rope for top loops and bottom loops, single hitch loop pattern on bottom ring
  • Cotton cloth used to wrap bottom and top rings, including flesh hoop to prevent rust damage to skin
  • Rope handle installed underneath the verticals gives you a place to attach your strap
  • Extra tuning rope included, wrapped around neck for storage
  • All 1/4" rings custom fitted very tight, locking in the tension
  • Ledge for bottom ring adds stability and helps keep tension even when tuning
  • High durometer black rubber pad permanently fixed to the bottom edge, for wood protection and playing comfort
  • Professionally shaped bearing edge, curved and angled for maximum comfort and ease of sound
  • Skin molded to cover top rings, protecting the loops and adding an aesthetic element
  • Tasteful deep carved design patterns cover the bottom 1/3 of base
  • This djembe will fit our Professional Djembe Case well, offering great protection for your investment
  • The pictures above are of the EXACT DRUM described above, not just an example; once purchased, we remove it from the website

This djembe shell was imported by Djembe Direct and custom built by Kaz Speirs for our drum workshop in Salt Lake City, UT. Kaz has built hundreds of djembes over many years, which are being played today by professional musicians all over the world.
