14" Bamboo fatbelly djembe

 Price $549

Lathe turned laminated bamboo, this is a huge drum but very light!  Unusually low frequency base tone with a warmer slap than usual.

Sun-dried natural African goatskins are hand picked and mounted on beautiful lathe turned wooden shells. The shells for this series are crafted using our unique "Fatbelly" design, which is much more complicated to build but gives a more traditional shape with a noticeable improvement in the definition between high and low range sounds. The bearing edge is turned perfectly on each drum, for comfort and purity of tone. The finest low stretch cord is used and the 1/4" steel rings are hand rolled in-shop to match each drum. Woods used are listed beside the pictures, as they will always change. These drums are a pleasure to feel and a joy to play.
