Sombaty Max Mazala

This format is especially appreciated by percussionists playing Egyptian and Lebanese styles, as well as by musicians looking for more depth and power in the doum.

The Mazala model stands out for its remarkable blue and white mother-of-pearl marquetry. Its numerous geometric patterns are crafted in a traditional oriental style, with beautiful blue, green and iridescent reflections that change depending on the light. Each instrument therefore has a strong visual presence and a distinctive handcrafted character.

Each darbuka is adjusted before shipping to ensure balanced tension and optimal sound response. It is delivered with a padded bag, a spare head and a tuning key.

Note: the fitted and replacement heads are made from recycled plastic. They may therefore show slight cosmetic marks or irregularities, with no effect on sound or performance.
