Elementary 10" Frame Drum

The frame drum is a traditional instrument widespread in cultures throughout the world. Frame drums are crafted in marvelous variety, from the simplest frame drum ("a hoop with head")  to the most elaborately jingled and ringed instruments you can imagine. Inspired by this world of traditional instruments, Cooperman sets the standard for frame drums made for professional musicians; we also call back to the old traditions by handcrafting these very simple, small diameter drums, light weight and ready for beginners •             Local Vermont Ash wood drum shell. •              Natural skin head. (non-tunable) •              approx. 10” diameter x 2 1/2" depth. •              Instrument grade finish. •              Thumb hole for upright-playing style drumming. •              A colorful satin ribbon is attached around the seam where the head and shell meet for an attractive finish. The 2 1/2" depth of the shell gives this drum a full, resonant sound.
