MEINL Mini Doumbeks have solid lows and snappy ringing highs. The prominent bass tone and the crisp snap of the rim are the prominent characteristics of the doumbek and of course are the source of its name. Just 7 ½ in. tall and 4 in. wide the miniature size is great for spontaneous jam sessions drum circles or to keep on your desk or coffee table. Mini Doumbeks are also a great gift idea. The lightweight aluminum shells and synthetic heads have outstanding resonance.
