This djembe has a hairline crack near the base of the drum. A crack in the base of a djembe does not affect the sound quality and this is a great performing instrument. Sometimes with wooden djembes, cracks will form in the base, but the only time you should really be concerned is when there is a crack in the bowl... that's where the sweet spot of the drum is and a crack in the bowl may produce undesired results.
The Red and Black Djembe features a two tone contrast of red and black stripes offering a bit of attitude. Master carvers have paid special attention to the detailing of this drum to provide a unique rough texture. Authentic goatskin heads are secured with low-stretch Alpine Nylon HTB 5mm rope runners. We recommend this drum for beginner to intermediate players.
We take great pride that our djembe drums are environmentally friendly. Each drum is made from legally harvested/Government inspected and certified Mahogany. The fact that we import these drums directly from our overseas partners means that you get 'factory direct' prices and the finest selection of handcrafted djembe drums.
