Meinl Tar Frame Drum 14"

Modern MEINL frame drums represent some of the oldest drums used in music stemming from the farthest reaches of the globe. Ancient frame drums were traditionally used for dance, celebration and various ceremonies by providing rhythmic foundations as well as overall presence, as meditative harmonic sound effects are easily achievable. The MEINL Mizhar frame drum has a deep 4" shell and a thumb notch that allows for easy finger placement to execute pitch bending techniques and intricate rhythms played between both hands. Having an extra deep shell allows for full sound development and deep tones that project from the instrument. These drums are typically struck with the fingers close to the edge where the drum naturally resonates to its fullest. This model of the MEINL Mizhar comes equipped with a True Feel synthetic head with a coated surface for warm musical tones. The lightweight and rugged Rubber Wood shells have outstanding acoustic properties with recessed lugs for minimal interference. A Brown Burl finish also adds stunning aesthetic appeal. Included is an allen wrench for tuning adjustments.
