Extra Weight. Strong Sound. Hand-Finished Detail.
The Ocean Stars Sombaty Plus Darbuka combines a heavier aluminum build with genuine mother-of-pearl decoration applied by hand. Made in Egypt, this darbuka has an added layer of aluminum that sets it apart from a standard Sombaty, supporting a strong sound across Doom, Tac, and slap strokes.
For gigs and hafla gatherings, Ocean Stars brings together sound and craftsmanship: a drum you can put to work on stage, with handmade detail worth seeing up close.
The Design Behind Ocean Stars
One look at the rich turquoise-blue background and the name Ocean Stars makes sense. The color recalls sunlit water, while cream-and-gold-toned starburst patterns spread across the body. Each motif combines delicate leaf shapes with a geometric center, picked out in dark blue and pale pearl. Matching borders around the rim and base bring the design together—a little ocean color, a little starlight, and plenty of detail to enjoy between rhythms.
Built for Your Rhythm
- Heavier Sombaty Plus construction: An additional layer of aluminum adds weight and contributes to the drum’s strong sound.
- 8 tuning pegs: Adjust the head tension with the included tuning key to fine-tune your setup.
- Hand-applied mother-of-pearl: Genuine shell decoration gives each handmade drum its own individual character.
