FAQ

Shamanic Drum Selection Help

We make two types of Shamanic Drums: the Easytune Shamanic Drum and the Traditional Shamanic Drum. Both models are available in two variants: with fur (the fur is still on the skin) and Rawhide (with a bare skin). All models are available in different sizes.

Easytune Shamanic Drum:
The Easytune Shamanic Drum features an inflatable ring that allows you to easily adjust the tension on the drumhead with a small air pump. This system enables you to tune the drum yourself and modify the sound to your preference, without the need for complex techniques. It's perfect for those who want flexibility in the tone or are looking for a specific vibration or frequency that feels right. Additionally, it prevents the drum from needing retuning due to external factors like temperature or humidity changes.

Traditional Shamanic Drum:
The Traditional Shamanic Drum is crafted using ancient techniques, without a pumping system. The tension on the skin is preset and remains stable for a long time, although external factors such as temperature and humidity can influence the tension. Changing the tension requires more effort. This can be done in two ways:

  • Heating the drumhead: By warming up the drum, for example near a campfire, in the sun, or by holding the drum against your body, you can temporarily increase the tension and influence the sound. Be careful, read more about it in our blog.
  • Moisten the drum skin and retune: By re-moisturizing the skin and retuning the drum, you can adjust the tension for a longer period. Do not attempt this on your own if you're unsure how to do it. Please seek advice before proceeding.

Which one do you choose?

  • Choose the Easytune Shamanic Drum if you're looking for convenience and want to adjust the tension and sound of your drum regularly.
  • Choose the Traditional Shamanic Drum if you value an authentic playing experience and don't need to change the tension frequently.

No matter which variant you choose, both models are carefully handcrafted and offer a beautiful sound.

The choice between a furred or rawhide shamanic drum mainly depends on your personal preference and the sound you're looking for:

  • Furred Shamanic Drum: This drum has a natural, warm, and earthy appearance due to the presence of fur. The sound is often slightly deeper and softer compared to the unfurred drums, thanks to the subtle damping effect of the fur. 
  • Rawhide shamanic drum: This type has a brighter sound with long resonance, ideal for those who want to produce long-lasting tones and a bit more volume.

It comes down to what is more important to you. Both variants have their unique charm and strength!

The choice of size depends on your preference and use. The larger the drum, the longer the resonance and the deeper the sound. Here are some guidelines to help you:

  • 40 cm: Compact and lightweight, ideal for traveling or if you frequently take your drum with you. Perfect for beginners or those looking for a portable drum.
  • 50 cm: A nice middle ground, with a balanced size and sound. Suitable for both personal and group sessions.
  • 60 cm: Larger and more powerful, with a deeper sound and more resonance. Ideal for ceremonial use or a more intense drumming experience.
  • 70 cm: The largest size, with an impressive presence and very deep, earthy sounds. Perfect for experienced drummers and rituals where a powerful sound is needed.

Choose the size that suits your playing style, physical comfort, and the situations in which you want to use the drum. Each size has its own unique character!

All our shamanic drums are suitable for beginners. Whether you’re just starting or have some experience, each drum provides an accessible and wonderful sound for everyone. We’d be happy to help you choose the perfect drum that fits your needs!

ABOUT OUR WORKSHOP

Our LIDAH shamanic drums are carefully handcrafted in Bali. This inspiring location, where craftsmanship and tradition come together, provides the perfect environment to create high-quality instruments.

With a focus on quality and sustainability, we use only the best materials, such as goat leather and teak wood. For every instrument sold that incorporates wood, we plant a tree to give back to nature.

Would you like to learn more about our team and our vision? Then visit our About Us Page.

Our shaman drums are crafted with care and respect from natural materials. The drumhead is made from goat skin, sourced from goats whose hides are used as a sustainable byproduct. The frame is constructed from sturdy, high-quality teak wood from Bali. These materials not only produce a warm, deep sound but also create an authentic and sustainable instrument that will last for years to come.

As a way to give back to nature, we plant a tree for every instrument sold that contains wood. This way, we contribute to the preservation of forests and a more sustainable future.

Yes, LIDAH Shaman Drums are completely handmade. Each instrument is crafted with great attention and skill, ensuring that it is of the highest quality in terms of sound and finish. Thanks to this manual process, every drum has a unique appearance and sound, which contributes to the special experience of playing our Shaman Drums.

Warranty and Maintenance

Maintaining your shaman drum is essential for its longevity and sound quality. Store the drum in a dry place, away from extreme temperatures and moisture. Use a soft cloth to keep the skin clean and be mindful when storing and transporting. Protect your drum with a bag or blanket to prevent damage, especially during temperature or humidity fluctuations. For more tips on maintenance and protection, read our extensive blog.

The quality of our shaman drums is guaranteed by our meticulous manual production process. Each drum is crafted with attention to detail and thoroughly tested for both sound and finish. This ensures that you receive an instrument that meets our high standards and makes us proud. With normal use, your drum will retain its beautiful sound for many years to come. Have questions or need help? We're happy to assist you further!

Yes, our shaman drums come with a warranty. We offer a 2-year guarantee on the drum, which means we ensure your instrument retains its quality with normal use. This way, you can enjoy the sounds worry-free. Have questions or need help? We're always here for you!

Our LIDAH shaman drums are designed to last. The EasyTune models never require additional tightening, as you can easily adjust the tension using the pump. 

The tension of traditional shaman drums can gradually decrease with extensive use. This is influenced by temperature and humidity fluctuations. If you want to permanently adjust the tension, you can tighten the drum further. This usually depends on how often you play and the conditions, and can vary from once a year to several years without needing additional tension.

General Shaman Drum Questions

A shaman drum is a traditional percussion instrument often used in spiritual and meditative ceremonies. It typically consists of a round wooden frame covered with a natural skin, such as goat skin. The drum is played with a drumstick and produces a deep, resonant sound that helps to induce a meditative state. Shaman drums are often associated with healing rituals, inner journeys, and connecting with nature or spiritual energies.

Learning to play the Shaman Drum is very easy! The beauty of the shaman drum is that it's a very intuitive instrument. There's no right or wrong way to play – you can simply follow your feelings and the energy you want to express. Whether you start with simple rhythms or are more advanced, it's all about personal expression and enjoying the journey. As you practice, you'll discover more techniques, but most importantly, enjoy the sound and experience you create.
