22″ David Roman Drums Mazhar – €300 (currently not available from this website)
All Davidromandrums instruments come with air-tuning system. It’s very convenient and you can change pitch very quickly. Check it out here.
My favourite DRD lapstyle drum is the 22″ Mazhar with heavy frame and goat or thin calf skin. It has an amazing tuning range, warm bass and sharp Taks. In the video you see the same drum (goat skin) in 3 different tunings.

Cooperman Artist Series Riq – $320.00
click here to order
Our Artist Series Riq features the traditional jingle arrangement of 5 double-row, evenly spaced sets. The head is tightly mounted to create the drum’s distinctive high pitched sound. We’ve incorporated the patented Cooperman internal tuning system to maintain top performance under all conditions, as well as our removable jingle pin system to allow for alternative combination of jingles.
Cooperman recommends REMO Weatherking head for its bright, highly responsive sound. The Weatherking heads are typically scuffed to give them a slight surface texture. Alternatively, either REMO Renaissance or natural fish skin is available at the same price.
