The Sombaty Max Nojum by Gawharet El Fan is a high-end Egyptian darbuka designed for percussionists looking for a large, stable instrument with particularly deep bass tones.

With its 24 cm head diameter, a height of approximately 50 cm and a weight of around 7.5 kg, it offers a larger format than a standard 23 cm Sombaty. This gives the instrument a deeper doum, greater sonic fullness and strong presence while playing, while maintaining good precision in the higher tones.

This format is especially appreciated by percussionists playing Egyptian and Lebanese styles, or by musicians looking for a deeper low register than with a standard Sombaty.

The Nojum model stands out for its beautiful white mother-of-pearl, elegantly highlighted by refined black oriental marquetry. Its bright and sophisticated appearance gives the instrument a striking visual presence while preserving the handcrafted character associated with Gawharet El Fan’s finest models.

Each darbuka is adjusted before shipping to ensure balanced tension and the best possible 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, with no effect on the sound or performance of the instrument.
