Dinky 12″ Djembe with key tuning and bass control

Dinky 10″ Djembe – a wooden percussion drum with a bass control, key-tuned membrane, and hybrid tension system. The membrane is made of goatskin.
The playing surface is 25cm (10″), height 44cm, with a braided carry handle and 10-loop rim lacing. It can be played standing with a belt strap, or held between the legs while seated. Skin is a top-tier material for percussion, though it requires careful maintenance and dislikes moisture. The djembe strap system uses a reinforced rope with key tensioning. The hybrid method allows the percussion membrane’s tension to be distributed evenly. The bass control adjusts low frequencies, even during play, with the control accessible from outside the instrument.
A small, compact African drum for creating dynamic ethnic rhythms. An ideal choice for travel, outdoor relaxation, and first steps into the world of percussion or expanding your sound range.

User guide

A new instrument needs a break-in period — tighten the ropes evenly around the perimeter, turning the tension bolts clockwise one turn at a time with a standard 10mm wrench, symmetrically.
There is no maximum tension limit, as the membrane is not static — use your ear and touch to judge, and avoid over-tightening to prevent damage.
If the djembe gets wet, dry it at room temperature without loosening the membrane.
The bass control in the lowest position turns off the bass; in all other positions it is active.
Keep away from fire, temperature extremes, and moisture.
Do not sit on the instrument or drop it, and do not insert any objects into the opening.
Try to use the carry bag whenever possible.
Play only with clean hands, without bracelets or rings.
