Traditional Tuning, Modern Playability
Pearl's Rope Tuned Djembe is a combination of tradition and modern appointments. The modern player travels from cold to hot climates frequently, which would crack any wooden djembe. That's why Pearl has blended the traditional rope tuning method with modern shell construction. This fusion results in an instrument that sounds superb while being able to stand up to the abuse that a modern player will put it through. The percussion experts at Sweetwater agree that the simulated skin head feels great and plays just as well as a natural skin head. And the Pearl Rope Tuned Djembe's woven rope tuning system doesn't just look great, the head can be fine-tuned and will stay in tune with no questions asked.
