The Oud is one of the oldest stringed instruments. It was developed and is still used in all countries of the world. The Arabic Oud is one of the most important types of the Oud.

The Crown Darbuka

1) Casting - One of the most important factor when building a darbuka drum, is the quality and the density of the Aluminum material.

By this accurate process we made sure that the sound that comes out from the darbuka is pure and clean.
