The origin of Ashiko drums can be traced back to West Africa and the Yoruba tribe. The Ashiko is a close relative to the djembe and its sound is complementary to the djembe when pl ayed together in drum circles or ensembles. The long tapered cylinder of the Ashiko produces lower bass notes than djembes, with rich mid-tones. Pearl's PVC Ashikos are constructed using PVC for its light and durable characteristics and also for its warm, round, full-body sound. Available in both Rope Tuned and Top Tuned models. ROPE TUNED models feature a 1-piece PVC shell with 21 tuning points, a 10" tucked collar synthetic head, stand 23.5" tall and include a rubber bottom edge protector. TOP TUNED models feature a 1-piece PVC shell with 6 tuning lugs, a 10" tucked collar synthetic head, stand 22" tall (ideal for the seated player) and include a rubber bottom edge protector. Tuning wrench included. Show more
