This is a Lenke wood djembe from Mali that is exceptional in every way! We headed this djembe with a thinner cow skin and cranked the heck out of it. The result is a soloist's dream. Because it is a cow skin, the tones are still very strong and the slaps are very high in pitch and super clean. This djembe has volume! It comes with the custom outer rope wrap and a set of 3 large Sege Sege from Guinea (over $100 value). We highly recommend this djembe for someone looking to increase their speed and volume while soloing.
