About this item

• GRAB AND GO: the Junior Djembe’s compact size is easy to play and hold at any skill level or age; plus, it puts up with outdoor elements like dirt, sand, moisture, and sun
• WHY IT MATTERS: you can play outdoors or use with young students without hassle since the djembe requires little to no maintenance; the Junior Djembe is always ready to go from parks to the classroom
• HOW IT WORKS: the shell and head are 100% all-weather synthetic material, so they won’t expand or contract with changes in weather which can affect tuning and longevity; this material also resists dents/scratches and cuts down weight
• ONE BIG THING: it’s easy to get bass and slap tones, even if you don’t have experience; strike the center of the head with your palm for bass and near the rim with the length of your fingers for high-pitched slaps
• OF NOTE: the djembe comes tuned and ready to play right out of the box; the West African Mali Weave rope tuning system holds a long-lasting pitch, and we pre-stretch the ropes so it sounds great right away (comes with tuning instructions)
• BY THE NUMBERS: shell measures 7″ wide x 12.5″ tall and weighs about 3.8 lbs; head measures 7″ with a 5″ playing area (head is slightly larger than the playing area because it wraps around and down the rim)
• THE BOTTOM LINE: have fun playing the Junior Djembe anywhere, and don’t worry wondering if it’ll hold up; it’s made for all skill levels and comes ready to play right out of the box
• THE BIG PICTURE: Meinl is a family-owned musical instrument manufacturer and brand established 1951 in Germany; our expert German designers have deep relationships with our builders to ensure you’re delivered the absolute finest quality
