You may have noticed the AMAZING new products on our site from Freedom Drums. As Freedom Drums’ new website won’t be online until next week, we are posting some specs here for you to read about their Professional Series Djembes. More information will be available in a few days at www.freedomdrums.com. The following is an excerpt from their catalog:

“All Freedom Drums Professional Series Djembes are designed using a combination of modern and traditional building techniques for superior sound. Each Professional Series Djembe is hand-carved to the following standards:

Shell

  • Handmade from one-piece sustainably-harvested eco-friendly mahogany heartwood.
  • Precision-lathe turned by Master Woodworkers for even shell wall thickness and symmetrical shape, then followed up with a grooved spiral pattern hand-carved into the interior wall of the shell for crisp airflow and reduced overtones.
  • Kiln dried with multiple coats of teak oil to prevent cracks.
  • Sanded, rounded, and waxed bearing edge provides optimal tones and playing comfort, as well as prolonged skin life.
  • Hand-carved shell exterior by multi-generation Master Carvers.

Head Mount

  • Headed with premium shaved and untreated goatskins taken from the goat’s spine for optimal thickness.
  • Three-ring head construction locks the skin in place and eliminates slippage, helping to maintain tune and prolong the life of the skin.
  • Roped with premium internally braided HTB non-stretch nylon rope strong enough to last a lifetime.”

We hope this information will be useful for you in your buying decisions. We highly recommend them! Check out these sound clips:
