What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
3.5-inch shell depth
Shallow frame keeps it light for the diameter and gives a more open, less focused voice than a deep drum.
Detail 03
Frame drum design
Held by an internal handle or rested against the body. Played with a mallet or bare hand, not with sticks on a stand.
Detail 04
White finish
Plain drumhead surface, commonly used as a canvas for artwork in circle and ceremonial settings.

Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Do I need a mallet?
For the fullest low tone, yes — a soft mallet brings out the bass. You can also play it by hand for a drier, more articulate sound.
02Can this be tuned?
Frame drums of this type are not tuned with lugs. Pitch shifts with temperature and humidity rather than by adjustment.
03Is 22 inches too big to start with?
It is on the large side. A big frame gives more depth and volume but is heavier to hold for a long session.
04Can I mount it on a stand?
It is designed to be held, not mounted. Any stand would need to be sourced separately and would restrict how you play it.
