A Darbuka is a goblet-shaped hand membraphone, with a single skin and a short, dry, piercing sound. Traditionally made of cast, its goat- or fish skin head is often glued to the shell rim. Its is tuned with heat (from a fire or by hand friction)
Nowadays, a darbuka can be made of cast iron, aluminium or ceramique with a natural or plastic head fixed to the instrument shell with screws that also allow the instrument's tuning.

This model is a cast-iron Darbuka. It is close to the Dohola model (bass darbuka)

Ideal for beginning and intermediate learners, this pretty inexpensive model will give anyone an opportunity to experience the full sound range of this noble instrument. Darbuka is used as an accompanying percussion to a large number of musical styles.
