Good value for money

Solid drum for the price. The 6.5-inch size is manageable for travel. I added my own varnish to the wood to protect it, but that's optional.

Beautiful craftsmanship

You can tell this is hand-made. The tension on the rawhide is perfect right out of the box. Highly recommend for percussion enthusiasts.

Great sound, rustic look

The unfinished wood gives it a very authentic ethnic look. Sound is loud and clear. Just be careful as the wood is natural and may have small knots.

Authentic tone

I teach music and needed something with a traditional Chinese opera sound. This drum delivers that sharp, cracking tone perfectly.

Excellent war drum replica

Used this for a historical reenactment. It holds up well to vigorous playing and the pitch is exactly what we needed for the scene.

Perfect for our theater group

We bought this for our local opera troupe and the high-pitch sound cuts through the orchestra beautifully. The rawhide head is tight and responsive.

5 FAQ

Q: What is the depth of the drum shell?

A: The shell depth is approximately 5 inches, providing a compact body that enhances the high-pitch resonance characteristic of opera war drums.

Q: Is the wood treated or sealed in any way?

A: The product description states it is an 'Unfinished Drum,' meaning the natural wood is not sealed or varnished, allowing you to finish it yourself if desired.

Q: Can the pitch be adjusted if it changes over time?

A: Yes, since it features a traditional rawhide head, the tension can be adjusted by gently heating the head or tightening the lacing if your specific model allows, though most arrive pre-tuned.

Q: Is this suitable for outdoor performances?

A: It can be used outdoors, but please note that natural rawhide and unfinished wood are sensitive to extreme humidity and rain. We recommend storing it indoors when not in use.

Q: Does this drum come with beaters or sticks?

A: No, this drum is sold without sticks. We recommend using standard wooden drumsticks suitable for small hand drums.
