{"product_id":"latin-percussion-mini-djembe-accordable-218347","title":"LPM196-AW TUNABLE MINI DJEMBE","description":"\u003ch3\u003eHistorical Context and Positioning in the Range\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe small tunable natural skin drums are part of a long tradition of \"nomadic\" percussion instruments: designed to be easy to handle, expressive, and capable of providing an immediate rhythmic color. This model follows these principles with careful construction (dense wood, chromed fittings, comfortable hoop) to offer a compact percussion instrument that is not limited to a gift item but remains \u003cstrong\u003ea true instrument\u003c\/strong\u003e for initiation, musical decoration, or enriching a percussion set.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eWho This Drum\/Instrument Is For\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis mini drum is particularly suitable for \u003cstrong\u003ebeginners\u003c\/strong\u003e and musicians who want to add a simple percussion instrument to their setup. Thanks to its tunable natural skin, it will also appeal to \u003cstrong\u003eintermediate percussionists\u003c\/strong\u003e looking for a small supplementary instrument that is easy to transport and quick to set up.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn terms of styles, it fits well in \u003cstrong\u003eacoustic\u003c\/strong\u003e contexts (folk, world, unplugged), in \u003cstrong\u003erhythm workshops\u003c\/strong\u003e, animation, or as a percussive touch in light arrangements. Its compact size also makes it relevant for musical awakening, timbre exploration, and pulse work.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eFeatures and Innovations\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe interest of this model lies in the balance between \u003cstrong\u003eminiature size\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003ereal tuning functionality\u003c\/strong\u003e. The 4.5-inch skin is advertised as fully tunable, allowing variation in tension to adjust response, perceived pitch, and tactile sensation. The \u003cstrong\u003echromed hardware\u003c\/strong\u003e contributes to mechanical stability and provides a clean finish, suitable for an instrument that is handled, transported, and displayed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eMini Comfort Curve hoop\u003c\/strong\u003e is designed to enhance the playing experience: a more \"comfortable\" edge limits the sensation of a sharp rim under the hand and promotes a natural grip, especially for finger strikes and lighter playing. The result is a compact instrument that is more pleasant and consistent to the touch than a basic hoop mini drum.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eSound\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSiam oak\u003c\/strong\u003e is a dense wood, appreciated in percussion for its ability to offer \u003cstrong\u003egood projection\u003c\/strong\u003e and a \"solid\" striking feel. On a small diameter, this density helps maintain a clear response: the attack stands out, the note is more present, and the sound retains a clear percussive character rather than fading too quickly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003enatural skin\u003c\/strong\u003e brings an organic grain that synthetic skins rarely replicate identically: you can perceive more nuances between fingertip strikes, flatter hits, or drier playing near the edge. Depending on the tension, you can achieve a more \u003cstrong\u003eopen and round\u003c\/strong\u003e sound (lower tension) or a more \u003cstrong\u003etight and crisp\u003c\/strong\u003e sound (higher tension). Like all natural skins, it reacts to the environment: humidity and temperature can slightly influence the tension, which is also part of the instrument's charm and realism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:2rem\"\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"flex:1 1 300px;width:100%\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInstrument size\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003eMini\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCategory\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003edjembe\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eType\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003edjembe\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003eSiam oak\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"flex:1 1 300px;width:100%\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSkin type\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003eAnimal\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003eNatural\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFinishing\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003eVarnished\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e4.5 \u0026quot;\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:2rem\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"flex:1 1 300px\"\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width:100%\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShells\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003eSiam oak\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSkin\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003enatural\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width:100%\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSkin diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e4.5 inches (approximately 11.4 cm)\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTuning\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003efully tunable skin\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width:100%\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003echromed hardware\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"flex:1 1 300px\"\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width:100%\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHeight\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e8.25 inches (approximately 21 cm)\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width:100%\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUse\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003ecompact percussion, initiation, supplementary instrument\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGift idea\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003eideal size for gifting\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Latin Percussion","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54360870355219,"sku":"218347","price":73.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0984\/0872\/6803\/files\/eaaa2048d81e4a8c1177eae9ad6db50b58c3a0b2_LATINPERCUSSION_LP817980_26cfe246-a6a9-4588-a2eb-a9b707479c17.jpg?v=1787399189","url":"https:\/\/woodbrass.shop\/products\/latin-percussion-lpm196-aw-tunable-mini-djembe-218347","provider":"Woodbrass.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
