Nice easy-to-maintain djembe

Product Review
This is my first djembe. I'm primarily a guitarist and singer, and I wanted a decent djembe that sounds good and is easier to maintain than a wooden and rope-tuned one. It sounds good to me, though it does have that ringing sound. There are fixes for that, such as applying the muffling tape to the bottom of the head that I haven't bothered to do yet, as I'm too lazy to remove the head, and I'm enjoying it as it is.

Sounds great. Tunes easy. Beats playing jumped over for a cajon. Bright tone with a very rich low end.

New to the djembe

Product Review
I love music, and try to learn as many instruments as I can. I'm building an environment in my home where my children can explore music for themselves and find out what they love, and also where people can come over, jam out, and not have to lug equipment back and forth. American Musical has provided a way for me to do this! Shipping is fast, payments are easy, and customer service is unmatched! I'm a happy customer and will always use A.M.S.
I'm new to percussion instruments,so I don't really understand what real quality looks like in a djembe. I do however have a friend who has been playing for 20+years and uses Remo's on stage. With that said, I think this thing sounds awesome, and it's very sturdy!

This drum is big! Big enough to possibly need a strap or a stand to keep it in the proper playing position for any extended bit of time. Great variety of tones and wonderful graphics. I've just whet my appetite with it, but enjoy it a lot so far.

The fullness of this drum sounds really good! The bass that comes from the sound hole is amazing. This drum is articulate and is perfect for drum circles, world music, or any type of fusion. A must have!

Really nice Drum

Product Review
Very expressive drum... The barring edge is cut very shallow... This make for a wide range of tones and timbres... The bass in not super deep, but very musical... for a deeper tone the 16 or 18 may be the one... This drum makes sense.
