Independent shopping perspective
Made for easy transport, this 8-inch MEINL Travel Series rope-tuned djembe pairs a synthetic shell with a synthetic head. That combination produces sharp slaps alongside deep bass tones, and the drum is unaffected by weather changes for outdoor use. At 20% lighter than MEINL fiberglass djembes, it is positioned for moving between home playing, drum circles, and other portable hand-drum settings.
