Shamanic Drums

The shamanic drum is an easy-to-play frame drum. It is held at the back without touching the frame, which gives it great sound. They are often used for meditation, rituals, or for the mere pleasure of enjoying their sound. We recommend buying those that have a tensioner system since, depending on the humidity of the environment, the patch changes in tension (if it is made of natural leather). If you do not have tensioners, the only way to adjust it is by applying heat (if it is relaxed) or moistening the skin (if it is very tight). This is cumbersome and, in addition, with these procedures, the tension recovers again in a short time. With tensioners, it is much simpler and more practical. If you go to see the articles, you will see that we have them with 3 systems of tensioners:

with allen key (those of Victor Barral)
with bicycle pump (those of Tumtaka)
manually moving some knots that the cordage carries (those of Juanjo Paniagua)

Made of leather or synthetic patch. They include a drumstick.

Tumtaka Shamanic drum - goat skin - Tunable

Price €165.00
TUNABLE shamanic drum. In this shamanic drum model, the tension of the skin can be modified through a bicycle wheel chamber that is carried in the frame under the skin. It is handcrafted in Spain. Measurements: 40cms. diameter x 6cms. frame. The fact of being able to change the tension of the head is very useful, since the skins change tension every day, depending on the humidity of the environment. In this way, we can compensate for any variation quickly and easily and thus always have the sound that each one wants to achieve. If we give air with a simple bicycle pump, the skin will tighten and it will sound higher. If we breathe out, the skin will relax and sound lower. There are times that, if it is flabby, it does not even sound, so by giving a little air. - Recommended bag ref. 5074

Tumtaka Shamanic drum - decorated deerskin - Tunable

Price €180.00
TUNEABLE shamanic drum or framedrum. Decorated deerskin. Changing head tension with a bicycle tube. By applying air to the valve, we give more tension to the skin and by removing the air we obtain the opposite effect.
