- NEW MARLA LEIGH SIGNATURE FRAME DRUM !!
Working closely with Cooperman Drum Company, Marla designed
a drum that offers both introductory and advanced players a
drum that is easy to hand and provides effortless access to
a variety of playing styles. The shallow depth (3.25 cm) and
mid-siz (16" diameter) and cherry frame is expressive while
being light in weight. The icing on the cake (or the
drum) is that Marla is working with henna artist Ahava
Jacobson to create a beautiful, original henna design to be
put on the head of the drum.

Available May 2008 !!
