Bamboo Meditation Drum — G Major Earth Rhythm
Handcrafted from mature moso bamboo using traditional mortise-and-tenon joinery, the Earth Rhythm drum produces a distinctively warm, woody tone in G Major. Bamboo's natural hollow structure amplifies overtones beautifully, creating a sound that is both bright and grounding.
The 9-note layout covers a full octave plus one, giving you enough range for simple melodies while staying within a harmonious pentatonic framework. Each tongue is heat-treated and hand-filed to precise pitch.
This drum is fully biodegradable and sustainably sourced from managed bamboo groves. Dimensions: 11 inches diameter, 6 inches tall, 1.6 kg. Includes natural rubber mallets. Skill Level: Beginner.

Every instrument is carefully wrapped in protective packaging to look after its handcrafted details during shipping. Fragile items are double-boxed with cushioning so they arrive safe and sound.

Playing and Sustainability
Bamboo drums respond especially well to fingertip playing — the lighter touch brings out delicate high overtones that steel cannot replicate. For deeper bass tones, use the included rubber mallets near the centre of each tongue.
Moso bamboo regenerates fully within 3-5 years, making this one of the most renewable instrument materials available. Your purchase supports managed grove cultivation.
