Historical Context and Positioning in the Range

The Pandariq stands at the crossroads of traditions: the festive and articulated spirit of the pandeiro, the depth and breath of the daira, and the shimmering finesse of the riq. This Signature Hakim Ludin version revisits this fusion concept with a modern and versatile approach, designed for both stage and studio. Being signed and based on Hakim Ludin's ideas makes it a model with a strong identity, aimed at percussionists seeking an expressive, precise, and configurable instrument.

Its screw tuning and removable jingles are especially suited for those who like to finely adjust the response (attack, sustain, brightness) depending on the piece, the venue, or the microphone.
