Our staved dununs are built from premium grade Black Walnut and quite thick (3/4" to 7/8"). They are headed with Guinea Cow hide with even thicknesses per drum side. We put a lot into these drums and it shows. They are loud and deep with the bass being felt as well as heard and the mids of the Sangban blasting through any ensemble.

These are custom built per order and usually take about 3 weeks. Through experimentation we have found that walnut produces the best sounding dununs, however, if you would like to explore other options for wood, please let us know by contacting us through our Rhythm House Drums website.

Rope color can be determined at time of purchase. Custom engraving as seen in the picture is not included with the drums but we can work with you to put a logo, your artwork, or tribal designs on the shell. The images are laser engraved into the Walnut, not painted or stenciled on. Bolokada Conde has said that the doundounba is the power, the kenkeni is the information, and the sangban ties/knits them together. -The kenkeni is the smallest of the three and has a higher pitch, it is used mainly to keep time. 9.5 x 20" -The sangban is the middle sized drum that is thought of as defining the rhythm, usually a bit more complex than the kenkeni. 13 x 24" -The doundounba is the largest and provides a deep bass. The dununba is the foundation to the rhythm. 17 x 28" Your Sangban will vary slightly from picture shown. Picture is only representation. Skin color will vary and each are hand shaped/finished and different hides used.
