New Tongue drum day

[TheGreek]

Great gadget - I managed to get the 6" 11 notes version - arrived today - lots of fun just tapping away with the rubber hammers. Surprisingly easy to learn how to play and I'm finding some really nice harmonics and chords.

For around £30 it's hard to find something that's as much fun (and relaxing).

A different seller but the same item - lots of people selling the 6", 8 note drum for a little less...

Somewhat disappointed to learn this isn't, in fact, a drum you play with your tongue.

Guessing that was recorded on a £1500 hand crafted one?  How does yours sound? Sound clips!

Relaxing...

Noodling never sounded so good.

There is some amazing videos on you tube on the handcrafted ones.

Astonishing craftmanship which justifies the prices.

Wait, that's a Hand Pan....not a Tongue drum! Apologies 😂

Still impressive craftsmanship though.....
