Special Features

  • LEARN TO PLAY IN MINUTES: strike the center with your whole hand for deep, resonant bass and near the rim with your fingers for high-pitched slap tones; this djembe is a perfect instrument for getting the confidence to play percussion with no experience
  • WHY IT MATTERS: a lot of fun musical adventures don't require time-consuming practice on a drum set; with the Meinl African Style Djembe, you can play in drum circles, acoustic shows with bands, jam with friends and family, or teach students about rhythm
  • ZOOM IN: 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
  • DRIVING THE SOUND: you can get a lot of different sounds from its traditional, pre-tuned goat skin rawhide head; this head produces a classic warm, yet clear tone while being remarkably durable, and comes ready to play right out of the box
  • 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 is your chance to grab a handmade, all-purpose, sturdy djembe that easily produces a wide range of sound indoors or outside; it's not intimidating to play—even if you're a beginner—and looks beautiful on display
  • 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

Description

The Meinl fire rhythm series original African rope tuned Djembe has a black finish with hand carved designs. This high quality instrument is crafted with great attention to detail and provides an outstanding, full-volume sound. The Meinl original African style rope tuned Djembe is made from a solid log of plantation grown mahogany. This wood species has the proper density and stability to assure a high quality Djembe from sustainable sources. Our Djembes are headed with hand selected shaved goatskin (shaded black on fire rhythm series). the traditional Mali-Weave tuning system with pre-stretched htp rope is an easy and reliable way to keep the Djembe in tune. The Djembe is first formed on a lathe. The body is then carefully shaped by hand for a perfect bearing edge and proper interior contours. These factors are critical for optimum sound characteristics: deep bass notes, full clear tones, and crisp cutting slaps, all without unwanted overtones
