Very happy with purchase

I bought this for my home studio to have some real instruments to record and mix in with sample libraries. First impression, it's a great looking drum, well built and sturdy. Good height for playing. Even when not playing it looks fantastic and adds a good ambiance to the studio. The sound is perfect for what I was looking for - strong bass and crisp highs. As my first time playing a djembe it took a few minutes to realise the drum has to be played at an angle to allow the sound to resonate. I'm not sure how good it would be to an experienced djembe player, but for my needs and experience it's perfect and I would highly recommend it.
