The drum pictured is the exact drum you will receive. It has been inspected for any flaws, cracks and for exceptional playability.
Calfskin djembes are of rising popularity in the djembe world. Not only does calfskin provide a uniquely deeper voice for the djembe, it is more durable as well and offers a wider range for tuning. The notes come out very warm and inviting to the ensemble, especially as a lead drum. Tuned low it makes a great backbone for a bass djembe accompaniment drum, but of course it loves to be pulled tight and played hard.
The traditional carving from Guinea along with premium skin and a rubber sole give this drum a life of its own. Definitely a great addition to the djembe enthusiast as well as lovers of the congas.
