The main features of the Meinl ID3GO Ibo Drum Trisound BK include:
I thought it was quite expensive(as for my pocket)and wasn't sure if it's worth its price. Just the moment I took it out of the box I was sure it is what I wanted it to be. I watched lots of videos to check the sound of this udu drum but any of them doesn't do its justice. It is so much better than it was in videos. I like the bass sound,it is really loud.You can create so many different rhythms. But the bass was for me the selling point.
In regards to craftsmanship. It is overall well made.There are some imperfections in the paint in one place(looks like discolouration) and the top chimney looks like has a little chip. But I think this doesn't affect the sound. Also, it is a bit smelly(that piece of leather).
Handling may be tricky if you not used to it yet but after some time you know how to hold it.
I am still discovering it so I can only tell that much.
