Ultra-lightweight djembe sound for indoors and out

With the NINO Percussion Djembe Medium synthetic head, you get an authentic djembe sound without compromising on weight or weather resistance. As part of Meinl's renowned NINO Percussion family, it is the ideal choice for school classes, drum circles and anyone who wants to play music that is simple and tough.

An ultra-lightweight plastic shell for effortless transport

The body is made entirely from robust, ultra-lightweight plastic, so the djembe weighs noticeably less than a classic wooden model and is easy to carry, even for children. At 25.4 cm in diameter, the shell delivers a stable stance and a full sound despite its low weight.

Synthetic head: ready for any weather

Unlike a natural goatskin head, this durable synthetic head stays in tune even in damp conditions, rain or bright sun. That makes the djembe the perfect companion for the schoolyard, summer camp or an outdoor session — with none of the usual head maintenance.

Traditional rope-tuning system with 30 loops

The classic rope-tuning technique with a sturdy 4 mm PP nylon cord and 30 loops lets you flexibly adjust head tension and, with it, pitch, so the sound always stays crisp and punchy.

Your benefits at a glance:

• Ultra-lightweight: the plastic shell makes the djembe easy to handle, even for small hands.
• Weatherproof: the synthetic head withstands rain, humidity and sun without any loss of sound.
• Everyday tough: the plastic shell and head are unfazed by knocks and changing climates.
• Sure footing: the non-slip rubber base keeps the drum steady while playing.
• Versatile: perfect for school classes, drum circles and outdoor music-making.

For a fuller bass tone, strike the centre of the head; for sharper slaps, play nearer the edge of the shell.
