Udu Wood

7 videos • 49 views • by Majid Drums The Udu Wood is a further development of the Ta-Udu that led to a very new kind of this instrument. It features two additional playing surfaces made from calfskin and fish skin. Both skins are tuneable with a screw system. The fish skin gives you a clean attack while the calfskin offers a warm sound with its characteristic sustain. In addition to the three striking surfaces, this drum is also equipped with two kaskaritas, which enhance the sound. With these kaskaritas, a latin sound can be produced and played very quickly. The Kaskaritas are also a patented idea of the master craftsman Majid and consist of different woods.
