The Meinl PADJ7-L-F is a 12-inch rope-tuned djembe from the Rope Tuned Travel Series featuring a fully synthetic construction. Its ultra-lightweight design makes it easy to carry to rehearsals, gigs, jam sessions, trips and outdoor activities. The patented construction combines traditional djembe character with modern, weather-resistant materials.
The 100% synthetic head and shell are designed to provide reliable performance while remaining unaffected by changing weather conditions. This combination produces sharp, focused slaps alongside deep bass tones. Tuning is handled by pre-stretched HTP (High Tensile Polymer) nylon ropes, designed to maintain consistent tension and reliable tuning throughout extended playing sessions and across varying climates.
With its 12-inch diameter, the PADJ7-L-F is up to 20% lighter than Meinl's fiberglass djembes. A non-slip rubber bottom provides additional stability while helping protect the drum from scratches. The distinctive Day Of The Dead finish completes the portable and durable Travel Series design with an eye-catching visual character.
