2. Funnel-shaped drum shell in large diameter and base ends in a swallow’s tail;
3. Narrow and cylindrical base. Usually, the instrument is around 70 to 100 cm. Apart from that, the difference in the manufacturing of djembe in different countries also creates diversity in its types.

For example, in Ghana, djembes are more traditional their djembes are well known for their decorative carvings and designs. Western djembes are more lightweight and colorful. Such as at the USA, djembes are seen with key tunes where the rope system is eliminated and it is lightweight and colorful as well to make it portable enough. In Germany, it is made with goat skin and rubber wood, and along with that, they kept the traditional rope-tune system. At Gappu, we kept both the African and Western touch and made our djembes lightweight as well as kept a little bit of the African design.
