Description
The Ivory Elite Pro djembe brings handcrafted quality to your percussion setup. With its solid mahogany shell, steel neck ring and natural goatskin drum heads, this djembe produces rich, resonant tones perfect for accompaniment or solos. The Ivory Elite Pro is a premium instrument hand-carved by master artisans, ensuring each drum has a unique look and feel. The Elite Pro djembes are hand made, custom carved professional grade instruments prepared with the finest materials. Each drum goes through a rigorous inspection of quality control using hand selected #1 quality mahogany hardwood. The mahogany used is legally harvested and certified to be legal timber that is part of a replanting program to protect our forests.
Precise Tuning With a Forged Steel Neck Ring
A forged steel neck ring provides rock-solid tuning stability on the Ivory Elite Pro djembe. The ring is custom-fitted to a built-in groove on each shell, locking it firmly in place. This prevents tuning slippage during energetic performances so your djembe stays in tune through even the most vigorous playing. Tune up your Ivory Elite Pro and it will hold tight, letting you focus on your music instead of constant adjustments.
An Acoustically Optimized Mahogany Shell
At the heart of the Ivory Elite Pro djembe is its hand carved mahogany shell. Mahogany provides a balanced tonal foundation with clarity in the highs and a rich low end. The shell is lathe-turned for uniform thickness and hand-carved with a roughened interior to reduce unwanted overtones. This acoustic optimization gives your playing articulate expression with every stroke. The mahogany shell also gives the Ivory Elite Professional a striking visual aesthetic sure to draw admiration.
Traditional Feel With Natural Goatskin Drum Heads
The Ivory Elite Pro djembe is topped with premium natural goatskin drum heads for an authentic look and playing experience. Goatskin offers a warm, full-bodied tonality perfect for traditional African and Afro-Cuban rhythms. The drum heads are carefully preserved and stored to maintain freshness and quality. Their natural cream color provides a classic djembe aesthetic.
Protective Backpack Bag for Travel-Ready Portability
The included Celestial Blue backpack-style carrying bag keeps your Ivory Elite Pro safe during transport. Its water-resistant lining shields the djembe from the elements while cotton exterior fabric provides durability. Front and top zippered pockets let you store drum keys, sheet music, sticks and other accessories. Padded handles make carrying comfortable even when fully loaded.
