Cooperman Bendir 16"

Descripción

Bendir 16" A simple braid of 4 fine dacron snares is threaded through the shell across the back of the drum head to produce the distinctive buzzing sound of this Moroccan style bendir. The player can adjust the tension on these snares, or release them entirely to eliminate the buzzing effect. Copperman's 4 deep shell is made of solid, single ply 5/16 cherry, steam bent and scarf jointed, and features a precision beveled bearing edge. The edge of the head is secured into an exterior groove, which is then covered with a colored knit cord. This design minimizes the tendency of the head to pull away from the shell. These drums are available with a goatskin head or a REMO synthetic head. Cooperman's patented internal tuning technology preserves the traditional appearance of the instrument and allows the player to maintain a complete range of motion, unencumbered by external hardware. Tension on the head is adjusted by the action of an internal, lightweight, moveable bearing member. A Tgrip Allen wrench and tuning instructions are included. A smoothly rolled 1 thumb hole is strategically placed so that the drum is well balanced and comfortable in your hands. A hand rubbed, natural finish accentuates the inherent beauty of the wood A soft padded carrying case is provided with each drum;
