The Meinl JD12BW Jumbo Djembe 12" is a weatherproof djembe with a deepbass foundation. The synthetic all-weather head offers a remarkably wide tonal spectrum from booming bass to cutting treble. Just like the head, the body is made of lightweight and exceedingly strong synthetic material. The Meinl Jumbo Djembe does not go out of tune with fluctuations in temperature or humidity, which guarantees uncomplicated transport. The lightweight construction makes the Meinl JD12BW Jumbo Djembe 12" an ideal travel companion. A stable mechanical tuning system with robust shell hardware ensures consistent and reliable sound no matter where.
Lovely djembe ..nice deep bass tone but not boomy ..love the fact it's easy to tune ..Really light as well with a very handy carry handle.overal very pleased and I often play outside so the synthetic head is perfect for staying in tune when it's damp or cold it doesn't matter it holds its tone.
I bought this as a instrument for easy travelling - I do drum workshops for young children.
The instrument is very easy to maintain, tune, and carry.
Fits the purpose exactly.
The machine tuners make the tuning process simpler and quicker than the traditional rope tuning system. Please note that this is not real wood - it is made of a durable plastic instead.
