Top quality djembe drums
imported from the finest
carvers in Senegal, West
Africa. These drums are some
of the best you can find in
the US. We receive the
shells, cut the bearing edge,
head and tune them. The
craftsmanship of these
shells speaks in the photos.
We have more djembes in stock
than what is on the site, so
please write us if you are
looking for a specific size,
style, or carving. We'll do
our best to find what you are
looking for. These Senegal
djembes come in mostly Dimba
wood.
The Senegal djembe is
characterized by its
distinct hourglass shape and
large base.
It's sound is similar to the
sound of the Mali djembes with
the powerful tones and deep
bass. The slaps are bright
and the Dimba wood mostly used
on these is a dense wood that
helps carry the sound strong.
