Perfect sound and appearance, the racket can also be used with it. I can tell the other customers the following: - the sound of the drum changes when you touch its rim, rest it on your knee, lay it on your lap, etc. In this way, you can trigger many other types of drums (hand drums, but even a djembe) by yourself. - those who value authenticity should note that the spine line of the animal does not always exactly cut the drum in two (not for me) as it does on the original drums. If this is a problem or a disappointment, look for another option, because in the case of such an instrument, this is not considered a factory defect and cannot be replaced for this reason (authentic drums are round anyway). - the "cross" of the tongs on the back of the drum should be wrapped or fixed with something at the beginning, because it tends to come off at the ends. - the drum itself can be heard even when played softly (thanks to its vibrations) even through several walls, be considerate of our fellow humans and during the day or in the forest If you say it loudly, you can hear it perfectly for miles.
