Tunable Djembe with Siam Oak Shell and Natural Goat Skin Head - Natural
$279.99
The Latin Percussion Aspire Djembe is an ideal instrument for recording, drum circles, or simply having fun. The djembe occupies a special place in music - no other African drum has been more recorded; the Beatles and Paul Simon certainly come to mind here. You'll appreciate that the LP Aspire Djembe employs modern mechanical tuning (in lieu of the rope-tuning of its ancestors). It does, however, sport a genuine goat skin head and a Siam oak shell for authentic djembe sound. Whether you're looking to have fun with friends or juice your compositions with a world music vibe, you can't go wrong with the Latin Percussion Aspire Djembe.
Built from kiln-dried, environmentally friendly oak. 25"H with a 12-1/2" natural goatskin head. The rubber nonskid bottom prevents marring floors and keeps the drum in place. Tuning lugs allow you to precisely adjust your tone and even up the head's response. Includes tuning wrench. Ideal for drum circles, gatherings, or just having fun.
Latin Percussion was founded in 1964 as the passion project of Martin Cohen, a young engineer living in New York City. Captivated by the Latin music he heard at New York’s jazz clubs, Martin set out to hand-craft his own percussive instruments like bongos and cowbells, delivering them to musicians all around the city. Since then, LP has been dedicated to producing only the highest quality percussion instruments by putting the needs of the performing musician above all others. From congas to cajons, timbales to tambourines, LP continues to meet the demands of modern percussionists across all styles of music.
