This ultra light weatherproof djembes made from premium fiberglass are equipped with synthetic heads that produce the classic djembe sound - a fat bass to rich open tones and cutting slaps. The Journey Series Rope Tuned Djembes are the perfect instrument for drum circles and outdoor playing due to their light weight fiberglass construction. The use of modern materials means they are unaffected by the weather.
