"I wanted to let you know that I couldn't be more pleased with the 14X24 Ivory Coast djembe I ordered through your company. Your website very easy to navigate and the ordering process was a snap. However, the best part was, the djembe I received exceeded my expectations! Thanks for offering such a great product at such a great price!  Hope your business flourishes in 2010." - Mike S.

"I just wanted to tell you I was very impressed with the 13" hair-on [drum circle] drum I just got from you. The dark stain and the carvings are great, and of course I love the sound." - Chris H.

"Thank you for the donated drums and assorted instruments. Was able to put most of the stuff to use, kids are having a blast. Had Christmas concert yesterday, parents had never seen anything like it. They had never seen their kids so motivated. Good stuff. Will send photos as they come in, hope all is well, so long," - Michael S., drum builder and volunteer drum teacher

"I have been doing business with your company for more than seven years and I have to say that with every shipment I am more impressed. I just received my last order and the drums look and sound fantastic right out of the box, the bags are beautiful and reinforced more than before, the hand percussion is excellent and it is all affordable. The staff and students from Rhythm Kids say thank you!!! " - Tom F., rhythm educator and percussionist

"I received my beautiful drums today and am so excited! I love them. They are incredible - I played one and had my principal play the other. Immediately, once everyone saw them and heard them they were impressed. Sounds like I'll be able to put in another order soon - at least by the end of this year. Thank you so much! Can't wait for the kids to play them tomorrow. They are going to have a blast!" -Erin P., elementary school music teacher

"Hi, I just got in from the drum circle I have been attending every Tuesday night since I received my drum from you. This is my first drum and I am new to drumming so I really went out on a limb when I ordered from your website. I like my drum and I am enjoying it, and would definitely recommend you to a friend in need of a drum; I bought a really good drum for a really good price." -David R.

"What excellent service!  I have received all data to date (receipt and UPS routing info).  Am anxious to see my grandson's new Talking Drum!" - Madeleine P.

"Thank you so much for your prompt attention. I received prompt service with my order and my drum showed up exactly when you said it would and I am quite enamored with it." - Jeri W.

"Hello ~~ Thank you very much for your wonderful words of assistance and your great company..I look forward to drumming on a beautiful Djembe again!!  Peace." -Sarah G.

"I received the bells Wednesday and played them in class. They are just what I was hoping for and everyone in class likes them. Thanks for your help with this order!" -Allison C.

"Thank you for having these great bells! They sound so much better than I was expecting them to. Many of the djun djun bells I've played added to the noise more than adding to the music. This set is very melodic and compatable, an absolute pleasure." -Jane M.

"I recently purchased a professional djembe from you, and just wanted to let you know that I love it. It sounds great, looks beautiful, and it makes me feel terrific when I play it. Thanks!" -Noel D.

"I bought my djembe about a year ago, and I have been COMPLETELY blown away by the sound quality and craftsmenship. It was exactly what I was looking for and fulfills my needs in the studio and the outdoors. Much Love!" -Eston

"The [professional] drum is amazing! Plays as good as it looks, and I can tell just from the feel that is going to sound even nicer as I break it in and bring it up. I think this may take over as my new lead drum over my Mali shell! Look forward to sending you more stuff in the future. I have a nice Guinea shell I plan on sending your way later this year. Take care." - Brian C.

"WOW!!! Just received my [professional] djembe, and it's truly amazing. It's absolutely the best djembe I have seen or heard. The craftsmanship is superb. Thanks so much." -Gary K.

"Just received my 13"x24" Classic Djembe and it is all that I was expecting -- nicely tuned, solid tone, slap and bass. Definitely a nice high and bottom end. I am very impressed with the quality of your product, its construction, and the ease with which it was shipped to me here in Canada. Your site has an amazing array of products and if my classic djembe is any indication, they would all be worth the investment. Truly a percussionist's friend. One love, I-tinually to DjembeDirect!!" - RasI'an'I
