These high quality Premium Djembes have been specially selected for our medium-range Djembe. Made from Djala hardwood, these djembe shells are a popular drum to graduate to when you feel you’ve mastered your first drum and eager to make a greater investment in your playing! A generally preferred Djembe timber, Djala offers some of the best sound qualities. Great projection and a full range of tones make them easy to play. Our high end Djembes also receive more TLC – attention to crafting more comfortable playing edges, non-slip rubber bases, and a woven handle making it easy to attach your playing strap.
