Meinl 12" Artifact Series Rope Tuned Djembe
SKU: HDJ17-LThe Meinl Headliner Series Artifact Djembe delivers authentic West African tone from a shell carved out of a single piece of plantation-grown mahogany. The 12" playing surface is fitted with a hand-selected goat skin head, providing a wide tonal range with rich bass notes, crisp open tones, and cutting slaps. Pre-stretched nylon ropes in a traditional Mali-weave tuning system allow for reliable, even tension across the head. The aged natural finish and hand-carved black-painted motifs give each drum a distinctive, road-worn character that sets it apart visually. Whether you're drumming in a circle, accompanying a world music ensemble, or practicing at home, this djembe offers the playability and projection needed to hold its own in any setting.
