Handmade Wooden & Leather Classical Indian Folk Dumroo Damroo Damaru Hand Drum Set Percussion Decorative Collectible Showpiece World Musical Instruments (Yellow)

Happy with this purchase -- it's a nice quality and the price was right.

This is labeled as a classic Indian Folk Damaru Drum, and perhaps the original tribe that played this musical instrument were very small people. But nevertheless, it worked for us, and it had a surprising volume. Make sure you read the description measurements though - it's a pretty small drum. As in, just slightly bigger than your ear drum.

Not sure what I was expecting for the price but it's small & doesn't quite make a drum sound. Works for my spells though.

This is described as "Handmade Wooden & Leather", this is not true. The shell of the drum is plastic that has been painted to resemble traditional wood instruments.That being said it works just fine and has a sound that is louder than I would expect for a 4 inch damaru.

Know before you buy that this is tiny!

I mistakenly thought this would be somewhat of a normal sized “hand drum”. I did not realize that by “hand drum” they meant its as big as your hand and can only be played with fingers

Little bitty thing (as described, if you read into it) but it’d be a challenge to get a neat sounding rhythm out of it. It might be a kind of traditional noise maker for parties or celebrations. Not really sure, but I can’t get much use from it. Pretty, though.

Doesn’t look the same. Doesn’t work too well too.

It would seem like it is cheap plastic not wood, very light and flimsy material, it is glued together. The chords are badly placed which makes playing the damru difficult and the strings come off easily too, one flew off while i was playing it a week or two after buying it. The beads are too light as well. It is my sincere opinion that this is not worth 20 dollars. I am giving it 3 starts since I am still using it but am disappointed.

This was smaller then I expected but that’s ok. I bought it for my wife and she likes it. You need to learn how to hold it properly and have the right hand arm movements for it to work.

The media could not be loaded.
