Traditional Tuning

These rope tuned djembes offer the most adaptable and traditional approach to djembe playing. The rope tuning system allows for precise pitch adjustment and complete customisation, letting you find the perfect sound for any musical situation. Ideal for SEND learning, Whole Class Ensemble Teaching (WCET), CPD programmes and music therapy sessions.

Innovative Teaching Features

Screen-printed instructional drumheads show students exactly where to strike for different sounds, accelerating learning and allowing more focus on rhythm and musical dynamics. The bright, engaging colours stimulate interest and make learning enjoyable.

Superior Sound and Durability

The precision-tensioned Mylar drumhead delivers exceptional durability and optimal resonance. Mylar's aerospace-grade robustness provides all-weather protection, resisting stretching, humidity and temperature fluctuations for consistent performance over hundreds of lessons.

The rubber-coated base prevents slipping, whilst the powerful bass combines with crisp slaps and resonant tones to create the dynamic range essential for engaging group lessons.
