Set of 3 Genuine Ghanaian Dundun Drums
 
These are sold as a set of three. They have a powerful deep resounding base. They provide focus and rhythm for a group of djembe drummers. They are played with sticks ( provided ). Each set is unique, and will not necessarily be the same coloured material or design.
 
Each set comes with a bell which can be tied to the drums to give another level of sounds. 
 
Dundumba ( large ) = 14" or 36 cm head, and 24" or 61 cm body 
Sangban ( medium ) = 12" or 31 cm head, and 22" or 61 cm body
Kenkeni ( small ) = 10" or 26 cm head, and 19" or 49 cm body
 
They are fair trade and hand made in Ghana by professional African musicians.
 
They have been made to be played, for beautiful sound.
 
The drum body is made from African Cedar ( called Tweneboa ). This is a fast growing tree. All our wood is obtained under license from the forestry commission in Ghana. Using this wood is less damaging for the environment than hardwood or fiberglass drums. The head is made from cow skins, and we use rope to tune the drum.
 
These drums can be tuned to accommodate our changeable weather.
 
The drums are reasonably light, much lighter than hardwood drums. They are easily carried and very manageable, so are particularly suited to schools and workshop leaders.
