Djembes
Elite Series Djembes
The Djembe is a traditional African percussion instrument that offers a variety of sounds, perfect for ensembles and drum circles. Pearl's Elite Series djembes offer a choice of two shell materials, Thai Oak and Fiberglass. Thai Oak produces warmer tones while fiberglass delivers a more cutting sound. The Elite fiberglass djembes feature a deeper, round bowl that contributes to the low-end tone. Elite Series Djembes feature Contour Crowns rims, polished steel hardware and premium heads.

Elite Series Fiberglass Djembe
From a structural perspective, fiberglass instruments are more durable. They are water resistant, impervious to extreme temperature and humidity, and have exceptional tuning stability. Traveling with or transporting a fiberglass instrument is safer because they are not as easily damaged as traditional wood instruments.
