Meinl 12" Nile Series Rope Tuned Djembe
The Meinl Headliner Series Wood Djembe delivers authentic West African tone from a single piece of plantation-grown mahogany, hand-carved into the traditional goblet shape. Its hand-selected goatskin head produces a wide tonal range, from deep, warm bass tones in the center to crisp, cutting slaps at the edge. The 5mm pre-stretched nylon rope with traditional Mali-weave tuning allows for precise tension adjustments and reliable pitch stability. A gouged surface texture along the shell provides a secure, comfortable grip during extended playing sessions, whether seated or with a strap. This 12" djembe suits drummers looking for a full-voiced, road-ready instrument for drum circles, acoustic jams, and world percussion ensembles.
