The
Djembe drums that we have for sale are the same type and quality as the
ones that we use in our workshops and circles; those of you who have
used them will have already experienced their excellent sound and
quality.
These beautiful drums are from Ghana. They are made from local
cedar, which is plentiful and fast growing, being so much gentler on
the environment than the hardwood drums produced elsewhere in West
Africa. They are light enough to carry fairly easily, have a
beautiful deep bass and produce an amazing sound. Our supplier
works a fair-trade policy in partnership with two Ghanaian brothers who
are professional drummers and carvers. All their drums are of the
highest quality, with no cracks, filled holes, or patched skins.
The Double Weave Djembe (same as the ones in our workshops) These are the best quality
Djembes. They have been strung with twice as much rope so are
very stable and strong, and the carving on the bases is much more
detailed and of very high quality.
These are still good quality
Djembes, with a great sound and basic carvings on the base of the
drum. They are excellent value for money being that they are the
same size as the Double Weave Djembes.
The Drum Bags that the 13” & 11” Djembes come with are also hand
made using very strong stitching especially across the straps.
They come in allsorts of random funky designs with the inner lining
being made from recycled corn sacks.
