Authentic and loud

Bought this for our community dragon boat team. It arrived well-packaged and the deep boom is exactly what we needed to keep the rowers in sync. Highly recommended.

Great drum, needs breaking in

Excellent build quality and very traditional look. The skin was a bit tight upon arrival, but after a few days of playing, the tone opened up beautifully.

Heirloom quality instrument

This is not just a prop; it is a real musical instrument. The solid wood construction ensures stability, and the handmade details are visible everywhere you look.

Beautiful craftsmanship

Visually stunning and sounds powerful. I deducted one star only because the carrying strap was sold separately, but the drum itself is flawless.

Perfect for our Lion Dance troupe

The sound quality is incredible. It cuts through the noise of the cymbals perfectly during performances. The cowhide feels durable and the wood craftsmanship is exquisite.

Best purchase for our cultural center

We use this daily for practice sessions. It withstands heavy hitting from adult performers without any signs of wear. The resonance lasts for seconds.

5 FAQ

Q: Does this drum come with beaters or mallets?

A: No, this listing is for the drum only. We recommend purchasing hardwood beaters separately to achieve the best traditional sound.

Q: How do I tune the drum if the sound becomes dull?

A: You can adjust the tension using the rope lacing system around the rim. Tightening the ropes evenly will raise the pitch and restore the sharpness of the tone. Avoid over-tightening.

Q: What is the approximate diameter of the drum head?

A: The standard adult size featured in this listing has a drum head diameter of approximately 60cm (23.6 inches). Please check the specific size variant selected at checkout.

Q: Is the stand included with the drum?

A: No, the stand is not included. The drum is designed to be mounted on a separate traditional wooden stand or held by a harness, which are available in our accessories section.

Q: Can this drum be used outdoors in the rain?

A: While the drum is sturdy, we strongly advise against exposing the genuine cowhide and solid wood to rain or extreme moisture, as it can affect the tuning and integrity of the materials.
