Drum Sales & Maintenance
Drummergirl specialise in the sale of high quality djembes. The shells are imported from West Africa and assembled locally.
We specialise in custom assembling of drums to suit all levels of playing ability.
Drummergirl source top quality djembe shells imported from Ghana, Guinea, Senegal,
Burkina Faso, Mali and the Ivory Coast. The skins used on all our drums
are top-quality Australian feral goat skins.
Which djembe is right for me?
If you are just starting out and are unsure of where to begin with a djembe then we recommend is the Large Ghana. They will last you through many happy years of playing. If and when you decide to upgrade- follow your eyes and ears and you will find the right drum for you. Guinean djembes are some of the best djembes you will find in Australia.
