Stunning visual and audio quality
The patterns painted on the side are vibrant and do not look mass-produced. The bass response is surprisingly strong for a standard-sized drum. Very happy with this acquisition.

Authentic Xinjiang quality
As someone who has traveled to Xinjiang, I can confirm this drum feels very similar to the ones sold in local markets there. The wood smells amazing, and the resonance is fantastic for dance performances.

Great instrument for beginners
I bought this to learn some Uyghur rhythms. The size is perfect for hand holding, and the sound is authentic. I deducted one star only because the tuning key was a bit loose, but it works fine after tightening.

Beautiful craftsmanship and sound
This drum exceeded my expectations. The cowhide is tight and produces a wonderful deep tone. The ethnic carvings on the wood are intricate and beautiful. It arrived well-packaged and ready to play.

Good value for money
The drum looks exactly like the pictures. The sound is rich, though it took a day of playing to break in the skin slightly. Overall, a solid purchase for the price point.
