Received my fifth darbuka from Arab Instruments today, the new generation White Dragon. As usual it is beautifully crafted and sounds amazing! Shipment arrived in only five days, from Cairo all the way to Colorado, USA. YOU GUYS ROCK!

I purchased a darbuka and a oud. Both are beautiful and good quality.

(Tuning D - Dukah - Re) Ahmad Abd El Ghani Premium Arabic Ney

I bought a Darbuka, and because the bag it came in was relatively cheap, with little padding, I began searching for a good padded bag with compartments for any accessories. That's how I came across your company and it's products, and haven't been disappointed. Whether you already own a Darbuka as I did, or are just getting your own, do yourself a favor, and invest in your instrument. Sharp, professional products that elevate your playing experience.

I got this because even when seated, the darbuka tends to shift around while playing, and the straps eliminate the issue without modifying my drum. The branded straps also look very professional when playing. They are a great investment for a cherished instrument.

I get regular comments about how professional it looks from other musicians getting ready to perform. First class product.

I recently purchased a darbuka from Arab Instruments, and I couldn’t be happier with both the quality of the instrument and the level of service I received. The craftsmanship is absolutely stunning, truly a work of art. The mother-of-pearl detailing and overall design add such elegance to my home, even when it’s not being played. The sound is rich, powerful, and exactly what I was hoping for.
Customer service was excellent, professional, prompt, and very helpful throughout the entire process. I highly recommend Arab Instruments to anyone looking for a high quality darbuka and exceptional service. A 10/10 experience!

Quick correspondence. Quality product. Quality shipping.

My primary instrument is a Böhm flute and my musical background is Western Common Practice. However, for the last 12 years I have been taking a deep dive into Mediterranean and Middle Eastern music. Before Covid, I had a few years of experience playing a Bulgarian Kaval. Wanting to get back into end-blown flutes, I ordered three Neys. The B Ney was from another source, but the D and E Neys were from Arab Instruments. I am happy with all three. All are solidly made, look really great, and seem to play well.
For any of you with a Western background, I will say that you have to be patient with learning to play in tune. Unlike silver flutes and Kavals, Neys have to be tuned by adjusting your embouchure, breath pressure, and suchlike. For me, it has helped to play scales and long tones against a tuner. The Arab Instruments YouTube channel has tons of great advice. The best thing about getting a good Ney at the outset is that you can tell that the maker has carefully adjusted it to play in tune when your technique is good.

this is an amazing instrument, I loved it very much.. thanks for the great product and good delivery🫶🫶
