Bog oak frame drum by Zelazek Drums - solo by Yshai Afterman, 21 inch, low tuned

3600 - 4200 years old bog oak is extraordinery wood that I use for making frame drums. By such a long period of time the oak wood become naturaly brown-black color, very dense and heavy wood which gives special resonance properties influenced on sound of frame drum. The wood I use after taking from water is seasoning for 10 years to become fully dry and the best for instruments. I love working with material that has so long history and I love the atmosphere of sound that comes from drum made by it.
The drum is 21 inch dim, 13 cm deep, goat skin.
