The 17'' Wave Zaza Percussion Egyptian Style Darbuka Doumbek (Black)

The quality is excellent.

I'm impressed by this drum. I've played on $$$$ Egyptian and Turkish drums, have tried loads out, and have struggled to find the right one! This one has a GREAT doum with a great tek! It arrived fast as well.

The media could not be loaded. Just got my new Zaza darbuka the other day, it arrived a couple days early. I love it already. Over the past few years, I have ordered several drums and accessories from Frank at Darbuka Planet. I have to say, the selection and prices keep me coming back. And when I had a little trouble figuring out how to tune a drum just right, Frank helped me out, as he has before. And the selection..... they just seem to have everything and anything. But ya gotta check out the beautiful artwork on the new mother of pearl darbukas from GAF. I just have no idea how they create those patterns and styles, and the sweet colors, just stunning. In this case, I got a simpler model, by zaza, for ease of carrying around and playing around a fire with friends. For the price, the sound is clean, with a deep resonate bass and good clarity on the tek and ka. If you look around, like I did, you might just find yourself back here when you compare. Thanks guys.

For a spun aluminum drum, it is a very good sounding instrument. It has a cast aluminum ring pressed into the bottom rim of the drum, which makes for a richer tone. The Mylar head isn’t the best for tonal quality, and it isn’t a common dimension. But very good quality manufacturing!

Good song
