Tycoon Expands World Percussion Lines With New Signature, Traditional and Dancing Drum Series African Instruments.

Tycoon Percussion has introduced several professional-quality African drums to their Signature, Traditional and Dancing Drum series. The new instruments expand the company's collection of popular and affordable World Percussion instruments, which include a wide variety of Latin, African, Asian and American drums and accessories.

Complementing their top-of-the-line Signature Series of congas and bongos, Tycoon now offers a matching Signature Heritage Series 12" key-tuned Djembé. The drum is handcrafted from environmentally grown and harvested Siam Oak and equipped with a luxurious brushed-chrome Classic Pro™ hoop and hardware as well as a premium-grade natural goat-skin head. The Signature Heritage Series Djembé is available in Tycoon's exclusive Traditional, deep-brown, hand-rubbed finish.

Tycoon's three new Traditional Series Djembés combine the look, sound and feel of authentic African instruments with today's most advanced levels of consistency and reliability. The high-quality, rope-tuned, 10, 11 ands 12" Djembés are hand-carved in Ghana and then inspected, given precision-cut bearing edges and assembled with top-quality goatskin heads and a heavy-duty rope tension system in Tycoon's state-of-the-art factories in Thailand — providing today's world percussionists with a new range of instruments that are truly the best of both worlds.

Following the success of its great sounding, easy to play Dancing Drum Series Djembés and Djun-Djuns, Tycoon Percussion has added an all-new Ngoma drum to the top-selling line. The 42" tall drum is of West African descent and is handcrafted from environmentally-friendly Siam Oak. Tycoon's Dancing Drum Ngoma features an authentic goatskin head and traditional tuning system made from 5mm non-stretch rope and is available in a rich mahogany satin finish with a sound-enhancing drum stand or a self-standing model in an African-style fabric wrap.
