Doumbeck “Indian Drum” – 30cm Tunable Brass

This Traditional Indian-style Doumbeck is a versatile addition to any percussionist's collection. Crafted with a polished brass body, this 30cm drum delivers a distinctive metallic resonance paired with deep, earthy lows. Unlike traditional hide-skin drums, this model features a high-quality synthetic skin, ensuring consistent tension and tonal clarity regardless of weather conditions or humidity.

Angkor Music Percussion Insight

At Angkor Music, we appreciate the practical design of this Doumbeck. The tunable brass rim allows you to precisely adjust the pitch to suit your ensemble or recording needs. The 30cm (approx. 12 inch) head diameter provides a large striking surface that is ideal for exploring a wide range of sounds—from sharp, cracking "teks" at the rim to resonant, booming "dums" in the center. Its robust construction makes it a reliable choice for both street performance and studio sessions.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this drum suitable for beginners?
Yes. The synthetic skin and mechanical tuning make it much easier to maintain than a traditional rope-tuned drum with a natural skin.

How do I clean the brass body?
A soft, dry microfibre cloth is usually enough to remove fingerprints. For a deeper clean, a specialized brass polish can be used, taking care to avoid contact with the synthetic head.

Does it include a tuning key?
Standard Doumbecks of this style typically use a standard hex key or an included specialized tool for the tuning bolts located around the rim.
