Meinl Percussion Djembe Hand Drum for Circle Instrument, Mahogany Headliner Series

The hand-carved shells of the MEINL Headliner djembes feature a gouged surface reminiscent of sun-dappled water, making them easy to grip between the knees. The traditional Mali-Weave system, made of high-quality nylon rope, secures and tunes the hand-selected goat heads.

These djembes boast outstanding acoustic properties, delivering a wide range of sounds from deep, resonant bass notes to cutting, high-pitched slaps. They are ready to play right out of the box, with no time-consuming practice required.

For added protection, MEINL specializes in carrying bags for their percussion products. The MEINL djembe gig bag (Model# MSTDJB) is perfect for all djembe sizes and is equipped with heavy-duty nylon stitching and a strong shoulder strap.

The shell of the MEINL Headliner djembe is hand-made from a single piece of solid mahogany from certified managed forests, not glued-together wood pieces. The exterior is beautifully hand-carved, making it a stunning decoration for your home or studio.

The traditional goat skin rawhide head produces a classic warm, yet clear tone while being remarkably durable. The West African Mali Weave rope tuning system holds a long-lasting pitch, and the ropes are pre-stretched to ensure the djembe sounds great right away.

The mahogany shell measures 12" wide x 24" tall and weighs about 15.4 lbs, while the goat skin head measures 12" with a 10" playing area. This handmade, all-purpose, sturdy djembe is not intimidating to play, even for beginners, and looks beautiful on display.

MEINL is a family-owned musical instrument manufacturer and brand established in 1951 in Germany. Their expert German designers have deep relationships with their builders to ensure the delivery of the absolute finest quality instruments.

In conclusion, the MEINL Headliner djembe is the perfect choice for musical adventures that don't require time-consuming practice on a drum set. It allows you to play in drum circles, acoustic shows with bands, jam with friends and family, or teach students about rhythm, all with a stunning, handcrafted instrument that is ready to play right out of the box.
