The Fremont Drum Bougarabou
$475
The Bougarabou, a traditional drum from the Casamance region of Senegal, has been described by some as a cross between a djembe and a conga.
The hand-picked cow skin (not too thick!) gives the drum a warm tone (like a conga) and the shape of the drum helps deliver a big, powerful bass (like a djembe).
We import the shells from Ivory Coast and build the drum using the highest quality skins, rings and rope.
A great drum for drum circles and drum classes.

The Fremont Drum Djembe
$425
A great djembe should have a great bass, a cracking slap, and with good technique, a warm tone.
We use medium/medium thick goat skins from various West African countries to ensure a balanced sound.
The perfect drum for a traditional class, a drum circle or a dance class.
