Handcrafted Mango Wood Dholak – Rope & Bolt Tuned

Description

Handcrafted mango-wood dholak with rope-and-bolt tuning

Bring a lively bass-and-treble pulse to bhajan, kirtan, folk music, dance and group singing. This Indian dholak has a natural-finish mango-wood shell, traditional skin drumheads and a rope-and-bolt tensioning arrangement for practical adjustment.

Balanced hand-drum response

Play the larger bass head and smaller treble head with your palms and fingers to build steady accompaniment or quicker rhythmic phrases. The combination of rope lacing and metal tuning hardware gives the instrument its traditional look and adjustable feel.
