The Crown Sombaty Plus Black — Premium Darbuka Drum (Model #0771)
Meet the Crown of Arab Instruments. Our Premium Crown Black darbuka drum is a stunning Sombaty Plus doumbek instrument crafted for power, precision, and show-stopping style. Its deep black body sparkles like it’s dusted with diamonds, accented by elegant gold details.
Why players love it
- 8 tuning pegs for accurate, stable tuning on stage and in the studio.
- Sombaty Plus build (heavier than standard) with an additional aluminum layer for extra projection.
- Thunderous “Doom” strokes with rich resonance—perfect for concerts and haflas.
- Premium, handmade finish that glows and sparkles under light.
Craftsmanship that shines
To achieve the signature glow, the aluminum shell goes through a meticulous, month-long process: two glossy base coats, two layers of sparkling silver, then three protective glass coats. Each layer cures for several days before the next is applied. The result is a brilliantly polished darbuka from bottom to top.
Sound & Playability
The Sombaty Plus design adds weight and rigidity for a stronger, more focused voice. Expect explosive Doom strokes, crisp Tek accents, and a commanding presence that cuts through ensembles and fills large spaces with ease.
