Ultra-Lightweight Design
Take your rhythm anywhere. These djembes are up to 20% lighter than Meinl’s fiberglass alternatives, making them exceptionally easy to transport. Whether you’re heading to rehearsal, a festival, or a jam session, their featherlight construction means less load and more play.

Synthetic Head
Ready for any climate. The all-synthetic head delivers sharp slaps and deep bass tones, and remains stable in all weather conditions—no retuning required. These heads are ideal for outdoor use, from sunny beaches to forest gatherings.

Weather-Resistant Synthetic Shell
The durable synthetic shell complements the head with consistent tone and strength in every environment. Unlike wood, it won’t crack, warp, or swell with temperature and humidity changes.

Pre-Stretched HTP Nylon Ropes
The djembes are tuned using high-tensile pre-stretched nylon ropes, ensuring stable pitch and long-lasting tension. This traditional rope tuning system is easy to adjust and holds up to rigorous playing—delivering the authentic sound and feel of West African drumming.
