Occasionally we run across unique and hard to find
folk and percussion instruments, there's no guarantee that we will get
more than are in stock of any particular item. Some are "folk" instruments
and so can be a little rough but are quite playable, other percussion
instruments are professional instruments.

GUBGUBA:
Also called the KHAMAK, GUBA, etc. is an
instrument similar to a small drum with a single drumhead with a string
fixed to one end of the skin. It is plucked with a pick (not included,
you can use anything really!) and percussive notes are produced by
controlling the tension of the string. Used in folk music in Bengal and
to accompany Baul and Phakir singers. We have a large one and a small one with a single string.
