I was looking to purchase my first drum and after consulting with some "drum people" and doing some research I landed on the bougarabou as my drum of choice, and THIS was the one I ended up buying.
I absolutely love it!! It is a small but mighty thing, the sound is beautiful, so "big", deep and mellow for such a little drum. People are constantly amazed at the sound that comes out of this drum.
So I love everything about it.
This is my "gateway" bougarabou because now I'm saving up to get her a partner.... :)
