| This djembe is in excellent playing condition. The only cosmetic flaw is light red stains on the drum head. The stains have no affect on the playability or tones the drum produces. But because this is from our elite line of Pro Africa Djembe Drums, we will only sell flawless drums at the full price of $129. So, this is an amazing deal for any percussionist that wants a top tier djembe at a huge discount. The West African symbol carved into the djembe is called The Leg of a Hen. It is a symbol of the ideal nature of parents, being both protective and corrective. A close translation is "The hen treads on her chicks, but she does not injure them."
