Bogolabo Drum
- This drum was expertly crafted from one solid piece of Tweneboa wood
by professional drummers who also make and tune their own drums. The
Bogolabo drum is used to support the djembe drum in a drum ensemble. The
drum face is made of hand-shaved dried goat skin. It has a rich tone and
is strung tightly with very durable rope for a long-lasting sound. Made
in Ghana. 8" Face x 18"H.
Djembe & Bongo Drums - The drums
are made of Tweneboa wood, which is a kind of Cedar wood and a favorite
wood of drum makers because of its durability and attractive finish. The
wood is named after a skilled master drummer, Tweneboa Kodua, who during
his lifetime was the chosen drum maker of many local chiefs. The drum
face is made of hand-shaved dried goat skin. It has a rich tone and
features double iron ring head construction. Our drums are strung
tightly with very durable rope and a double weave around the rim. This
ensures that the drum stays well-tuned with long lasting superior sound
quality. Excellent sound! Due to the hand-crafted nature of the drum,
you can expect some nuances in measurements and color, especially the
goat skin. This is the unique characteristic of hand-carving; no two
pieces are exactly alike.
