Description
Educators globally are easily incorporating the JJ into their existing music classroom curriculum teaching in conjunction with Orff and other instruments. Students love playing them. Steel Drums originated in Trinidad & Tobago, providing an opportunity for cross cultural studies.
Versatility is the best way to describe the JJ; a blend of simple design, durability (single piece all steel pan), and ease of learning/teaching allows it to be played/taught at the entry and intermediate level. It is great for learning music, family recreational music making, playing with other instruments, poolside jamming, worship music, classroom music education (K-8), music therapy etc. Also makes a fantastic gift item.
Your ready-to-play kit is delivered in a portable carrying case that includes: 16” steel pan, mallets, table top stand and free downloadable beginner’s guide-song book. The 16” diameter pan contains 8 notes labelled with the note letter in the key of G so you can’t play a wrong note. The scale range is G4 to G5. The table top stand accommodates any size player. It is also collapsible easily fitting back into the carrying case; making your kit portable and easy to store. The free downloadable beginner’s guide-song book includes play-along audio tracks for 5 original songs to get you started and instrument care instructions, playing techniques, history of the steel pan and the culture surrounding it. Additional song books and instructional guides available.
Awarded twice by the National Association of Music Merchants with a "Best in Show" & "Best Tools for Schools."
The Jumbie Jam is named after a character in Trinidadian folklore; the “Jumbie.” This mischievous and playful spirit grabs hold of you, compelling you to do a particular thing. What you are urged to do depends on the type of Jumbie that bites you. You have now been bitten by the Pan Jumbie giving you the “Jumbie to Jam!”

I am amazed at the sound of this thing! I a bigger one before this, and I got this one specifically for its smaller size to fit into my setup. Surprisingly, this one sounds much batter and really cuts through. It really has a great sound; I would recommend this to anyone at any musical level.
Really fun and sounds great.

You can immediately create tunes with the Jumbie Jam. No prior music experience is needed - just imagination. This is a great instrument for those who are inclined to play-by-ear or love experimentation. Because it is fun to play at any age, the Jumbie Jam is the perfect introduction to learning to play steel pans. And since it is such a user-friendly and versatile instrument, the Jumbie Jam could be implemented in classroom, therapeutic and alternative healing situations.

Is this instrument the same one as the full size? It looks as if the stand is the only difference?

Just ordered the Jumbie Jam table top steel drum. Need to know what key it's in...I think G but not sure. I want to order some music books with CDs but need to know the key. I'm sure it makes a difference. Thanks! Order # GCW2093935425
