Due to the scarcity and high cost of large-diameter wood, this is a unique splicing structure that incorporates a transverse mortise and tenon joint design at each connection. An innovative construction that ensures that the Ohira Daiko is durable, long-lasting, and resistant to deformation. Designed specifically for performances, this drum is an excellent choice for budget-conscious groups and teams that require high-quality, portable drums.
Key Features:
- Affordable Without Compromising Quality: An economical solution for schools and large taiko groups with budget constraints. Despite its affordable price, this drum delivers high-performance sound and durability.
- Reinforced for Longevity: The edges are reinforced with hardwood, ensuring stability and durability even after repeated performances.
- Rich, Evolving Sound Quality: Over time, the sound deepens and becomes more layered, providing full-bodied resonance and superior tonal depth.
Materials & Construction:
- Drum Body: Crafted using kapur wood splicing with a transverse mortise and tenon structure, combining lightweight durability with resistance to warping.
- Drumhead: Made from high-quality cowhide, offering stable and long-lasting sound quality.
- Natural Wood Variation: As kapur wood is naturally grown, each drum exhibits unique wood grain patterns, making every piece one of a kind.
