We use a powder coat paint but not just any powder we use an exotic 2 part/coat system that creates a hard durable finish with a long lasting shine.
Made with the lowest Environmental footprint possible…no paint with VOC’s, no lead, no hazardous waste from etching or engraving.
Quality throughout from the 13 gauge High Quality US produced stainless steel to improve sound, sustain, resonance, purity and durability to the tuning that meets Symphonic tuning standards.
We also use Stainless Steel instead of the normal low carbon steel which may contain traces of lead and will rust on the inside of the drum at the seam.
Every Vibe Drum is handcrafted in Arizona, hand tuned and tested for sound quality before it is shipped.
Due to our sound sculpturing we have been able to eliminate the "Steel Tank Overtone" as well as the large hole in the bottom or top of the drum both of which are present on many other drums of this type.

This unique instrument with a melodious tone will inspire beginners as well as professionals. The Single Vibe Drum provides one playable head with 9 tuned notes. It can be played using the hands or with our specially-designed mallets. The unique design provides a hybrid sound, similar to striking a “singing bowl” or handpan drum, yet offers a more portable and user-friendly instrument.
Created using nine-notes, the Vibe Drum is typically tuned to major and minor pentatonic scales to ease the playing techniques and produce harmonious tones, and is arranged so that each note has its octave adjacent to it. This simple, logical and harmonically-beneficial layout makes the Vibe Drum the easiest and cleanest steel tongue drum available. It can be used for playing anything from a tune to soft meditational tones.
The Notes
Shape: We chose a Octagonal shape (patent pending) for our notes for Three basic reasons. The first is because in our opinion they just look better than the big rectangles or simple curved lines. The second is it focuses your attention on the "Sweet Spot" of the note which increases playability. Third because of the symbolism associated with the octagon ( 8 steps to enlightenment, 8 fold path, etc)
Spacing: The spacing of the notes is important. If you have a lot of notes jammed in very close to each other when you strike one note it will partially activate the notes next to it, which causes a certain amount of harmonic distortion and interference. Our unique octagonal shape allows us to fit in 9 notes while still allowing plenty of space horizontally and vertically between them.
The Vibedrum has been around since 2008 and has been produced in the USA the entire time. The sound quality of the drum is excellent and we have designed this drum to give optimal tones along with ease of portability. Each drum is hand tuned and tested before it is shipped.
