"This message is for anyone on the fence about buying a djembe or other drum from this website [DjembeDirect.com] because you can\'t physically see and play it... I would like to commend Andy for taking the time to have a real conversation with me about Djembes and why some are more money, what the difference is between goat and cow skin and the influences of wood/shape. As opposed to other companies I was shopping around with who were just \"sales-talking\" the conversation and making me feel uncomfortable and pressured, Andy even picked up the drum I was interested in and played it into the phone! He sympathized with my concern in making a pretty large investment but assured me I wouldn\'t be let down. And I must say, for the last few days that I\'ve had the drum, I have not been able to put it down. The tone and slaps are out of this world, this drum is the sound I have been after ever since I began studying Afro-Carribbean drumming. Thank you so much, I look forward to my next purchase!" - Kyle Z. More...
"I purchased your Mali Pro Djembe 13x24 and I am amazed by the sound it makes. It has sharp tones and ringing slaps. The three ring tuning system stays in tune without any slip. The medium-thickness goatskin head is the best quality around. This is a no-nonsense djembe that is always complimented on it\\\'s sound; which is what matters most. Thank You Djembe Direct!" - Dorian P. More...
"Thank you for getting that [Classic Cow Skin Djembe] drum prepared and sent out so quickly! It meant that I got it on Friday instead of having to wait (impatiently) until Monday. ....The pattern toward the bottom of the drum shell is simple and nice, it goes well with the natural pattern of the wood, and the sound of the drum is lovely. The ringing that comes after the hits sounds like some kind of chimes to my ear as I\'m playing, and I like that part, too! It\'s a great drum with beautiful sound - the cow skin was definitely the right choice for me. It\'s so different from the sharpness of goat skin. I also like the soft texture of the slightly-furry drum head. I have to admit that once the tracking number updated with the delivery date ... I kept on watching and tracking the package across the country! I was so eager to get this drum! And I was not disappointed. :) It\'s a very lovely drum, and the perfect height for me. Thanks much!" - Donna H. , Drum for Pleasure More...

" Thank you, thank you, thank you for reconditioning my Gambian Djembe. It sounds amazing! The detail and sound of the drum makes me so happy. That is it. I will talk to you all very soon.
