<p>There's always a drum circle somewhere, and maybe you're going to be the one that starts it with the <strong>X8 Drums Dolphin Carved Djembe - 9 in.</strong>. The rich sound of this drum comes from the authentic construction of high-quality mahogany with a goatskin head. The hand-carved mahogany body is legally harvested from sustainably maintained plantation forests, then turned as a single piece on a lathe to create a uniform thickness that helps add to the quality of the sound. The carvings tell the story of a pair of dolphins in the sea surrounded by fish. Twenty coats of hand-rubbed teak oil add durability to the kiln-dried wood, providing you with a reliable body that's easy to tune with the traditional rope tuning system. The size makes it perfect for backpacking, travel or for younger drummers who are just getting started.</p> <br /> X8 Drums
