• CAST ALUMINUM SHELL, MADE IN TURKEY: Crafted in Turkey with a cast aluminum shell, the drum supplies deep low notes as well as ringing highs. It measures 12 3/4" tall with a 6 1/2" head.
  • TUNABLE SYNTHETIC HEAD: A tunable and replaceable synthetic head provides powerful and rich sound. Tuning and maintenance are simplified with the exposed rim.
  • AUTHENTIC SOUND AND ARTISTRY: The shells offer a clean aluminum finish that compliments the Middle-Eastern, North African and Eastern European sounds projected from the drum.
  • PERFECT FOR ALL SETTINGS: Both professional and casual percussionists have gravitated to Meinl darbukas due to their unsurpassed acoustic properties, durability and fine Turkish craftsmanship.

MEINL darbukas are made in the tradition of the original, esoteric goblet-shaped drums found in music from Eastern Europe, the Middle East and Southern Asia. Our darbukas are constructed from thin shells in various metals, each metal giving the different models their special timbre. The head is secured and tuned with external rings set close to the shell, in the Turkish-style. Light yet powerful, the darbukas have a deep full bass. They are well suited for high-pitched snapping sounds as well as a wide range of articulated "doum" and "tak" strokes.
