Meinl Percussion PROADJ2-L Professional 12-Inch African Style Rope Tuned Mahogany Djembe with Goat Skin Head, -InchVillage-Inch Carving

Meinl Percussion PROADJ2-L Professional 12-Inch African Style Rope Tuned Mahogany Djembe with Goat Skin Head, -InchVillage-Inch Carving

• SINGLE LOG MAHOGANY: the shell is hand made out of a single piece of solid mahogany from certified managed forests (NOT glued together wood pieces); the exterior is beautifully hand carved and looks great for decoration in your home or studio
• WHY IT MATTERS: single log means there are no seams in the wood, so the shell produces extra-rich tone with resonant bass; this also eliminates stress points, making the shell extraordinarily durable
• ZOOM IN: the exterior "Village" motif is carved entirely by hand and wraps around the shell; there will be slight variations in the handmade artwork, making each djembe one-of-a-kind
• DRIVING THE SOUND: you can get plenty of range from its traditional goat skin rawhide head—from boomy bass to cutting slaps; it fills space indoors and outside if you're playing in drum circles
• OF NOTE: the djembe comes tuned and ready to play right out of the box; the West African Mali Weave rope tuning system holds a long-lasting pitch, and we pre-stretch the ropes so it sounds great right away (comes with tuning instructions)
• BY THE NUMBERS: mahogany shell measures 12" wide x 24" tall and weighs about 15.4 lbs; goat skin head measures 12" with a 10" playing area (head is slightly larger than the playing area because it wraps around and down the rim)
• THE BOTTOM LINE: this handmade, professional level djembe gives you rich, clean, and resonant tone in any musical setting—live or studio; plus, you might get compliments on its good looks
• THE BIG PICTURE: Meinl is a family-owned musical instrument manufacturer and brand established 1951 in Germany; our expert German designers have deep relationships with our builders to ensure you're delivered the absolute finest quality
