Check the listing for details. Toca Percussion Talking Djembe - 12 inches. Condition: New. Listed at 129.99 USD. A Djembe That Can Talk Toca Percussion’s Talking Djembe blends the resonance of traditional djembes with the expressive control of a talking drum in a one-of-a-kind hybrid instrument. The tonally diverse instrument quickly earned praise from Sweetwater percussionists for its lightweight synthetic shell, which delivers strong projection and dependable durability on stage, in the classroom, or at the drum circle. A hand-selected goatskin head delivers a warm, authentic tone, while the tension-cord system made from low-stretch Alpine rope enables a wide tonal range of vocal-like pitch bends without sacrificing deep bass or crisp slap tones. Complete with a traditional curved talking drum beater and rubber non-slip base, the Talking Djembe offers a fresh sound to any setup.
