I’m in the process of getting one of these babies, one in E minor I think.. Does anyone have one? It’s the little brother of the Hang Drum, and much cheaper than a hang.

You can play it virtually on the web page there. Looks great!

linky no worky! saw it on youtube, looks cool, but i dont want mallets.

i like the idea of this thing!

the step by step gives you a good idea. the video is lol

edit: if anyone knows where the pdf can be downloaded that would be cool

The url works here.. Just google hapi drum and the first result is the main page.

I saw the hank drum video, and it looks very cool. But, I want a hapi drum.

there are a couple hank drum videos, and the tuning is uniquely different in each. dont get my wrong the hapi drum has a very nice tone, and i saw in other videos you could play it without the mallets.

but build one anyway, its pretty easy. play it next to your hapi drum.

I have one and absolutely love it. Its tuned to E Akebono and I have already taken it into the studio and recorded with it. If you want check it out here www.myspace.com/alancollinsband

I also put a youtube video up on that myspace. Its a beautiful instrument and I do recommend it.
