We’re thrilled to announce the arrival of our latest shipment of handcrafted djembes, fresh from the heart of Guinea, West Africa! These drums are more than just instruments; they are a celebration of culture, artistry, and the vibrant traditions of African music. Whether you’re a seasoned drummer or a newcomer to the world of percussion, our new stock offers something truly special for everyone.
Drumroots experts have worked closely with skilled carvers to customize djembes that combine the rich tonal qualities of hardwoods with a lighter weight design. These updated models are easier to handle than some of our previous drums and others available on the market, without compromising on their dynamic sound and durability.
Each djembe in our collection is a masterpiece, meticulously hand-carved by skilled African artisans using traditional techniques passed down through generations. By choosing one of these drums, you’re supporting the livelihoods of these talented craftspeople and preserving their cultural heritage. The drums are crafted from four types of premium West African wood:
The intricate carvings and decorative designs on each drum reflect the artistic heritage of Guinea, showcasing the skill and dedication of the artisans who bring them to life. These are not just instruments but works of art, handcrafted with care and cultural pride.

Our djembes are carefully selected to meet the highest standards of craftsmanship and sound quality, delivering rich, full-bodied tones, crisp slaps, and warm, rounded resonance, along with exceptional aesthetic beauty.

Had a great experience buying my first Djembe and it was great to play all the drums – and also hear them played, to help make the final decision. They were all amazing drums and choosing between them was difficult. It was great to have the time, in a relaxed environment to make the right choice. Thanks Jamie – much appreciated.
