Nice drum

I play different percussion and drums such as conga drums, nyabinghi, kumina and I know djembe technique. I wanted this drum for years because it sounds more rounded and different from everything I play right now. I am pleasantly surprised.

The sound is located between the djembe and conga drums. . Sound of the drum is rounded and there is no high frequencies like on djembe drum. Bass is really good for 12" drum. There is no

high resonant slaps if you expected them. It's more middle frequency sound. It's well done and it looks antique. This is a good value for the money.
