    Question What wood is your Djembe made of.

    I would like to know what kind of wood is used in making your Djembe and also what country was it made in. Any pro's and con's that I should know before selecting one.

    Well the one I bought, first time owning one, was an online purchase of Mahogany wood, it sounds grrrreat...but I am not as experienced as others here...I have a 12" x 24" djembe and love it..practiced with it today in fact..if the ad was authentic it was made in Africa.

    How much did you pay for it if you don't mind me asking. Do you have any pics.

    I have one made of Iroko wood... typical Ivory Coast djembe...
    Heavy, but solid and a good sound IMO.
