The Ghana djembe is also light, as tweneboa is a lower density wood than those generally used to make a Malian or Guinean djembe.
Due to the low cost of production of this wood, the price of the Ghanaian djembe is relatively low, but also due to the use of braided ropes for mounting the djembe, which are cheaper than the pre-stretched halyard.
These particularities do not alter in any way the robustness of the djembe. However, we advise against mounting a very thick skin on this kind of djembe so as not to risk deformation of the shell.
The decoration of the Ghanaian djembe is also very diverse: engraving of animal scenes or Akan and more particularly Ashanti motifs, use of a transparent protective glaze to enhance the natural colour of the wood, or dyes to give the djembe its colour.
These djembes are made by specialised workshops located at the handicraft centre in Accra (Ghana).
