I’ve always enjoyed combining wood and metal elements in this manner. The incorporation of the metal layer in the sides gives them extra mass, which serves a particular acoustic need unique to this drum. Wenge possesses a clear, albeit quieter, voicing than most of the other face woods we use.
Handcrafted in Flagstaff, Arizona using carefully selected exotic hardwoods and metal. Face wood: Wenge / Sides: Wenge layered with aluminum.

We are a father and son team who build handcrafted melodic drums & musical furniture in a variety of beautiful exotic hardwoods sometimes combining them also with stone & metal. We utilize "open-harmonic" tunings which are designed so that anyone, regardless of skill can enjoy; from the professional musician to the novice music lover. Woods are chosen based on density, elasticity, grain configuration, silica content and appearance. Stone & metals chosen for aesthetic & acoustic properties as well. Work is hand sanded and finishes are hand-rubbed.
* note - we strongly recommend to listen to the various youtube videos with headphones for pure sound.
** note - we have many more wood combinations, designs and different musical tunings available. Please feel welcome to message us and we would be glad chat with you and help guide you in making your choice. Thanks!
