Re: I need some information about a Djembe
Kona--the finish was slightly different, but that's the LP Aspire I played and described in my review...truth is, all djembes have a "bowl" shape to them, whether it's angular like a wooden African djembe or a modern fiberglass one.
Your daughter should like it, bro'....
Gretschhead, no argument on your points, man...I have not and do not intend to tune my rope-tuned djembe myself unless I absolutely positively have to!
Definitely a warmer and more "tribal" sound to the handmade drums, but for people just getting into hand drums, the key-tuned djembes are easier to work with (especially if they've worked with key-tuned kits or bongos before)...
keep the beat goin' ... Don't keep it to yourself!
