This is a vintage Remo Leon Mobley Signature Series 16" key-tuned djembe in the rare, discontinued Bifal finish. This appears to be an older, likely 1990s-era example of the Leon Mobley Signature line, and I have not personally seen another used example in this particular finish. The combination of the discontinued graphic and enormous size makes this a particularly unusual Remo djembe. This is the oversized 27" tall × 16" diameter version, giving it a huge, deep bass response while still retaining the sharp slap and open tones these Remo key-tuned djembes are known for.

The drum is fully functional, tunes properly and sounds great. This is an exceptionally large djembe: approximately 27" overall height, with an 11" deep upper bowl/shell section measured from the start of the bowl to the top of the shell, not including the head height. Because of the overall size, local pickup is strongly preferred. I am willing to ship, but the package will be very large and potentially expensive, so oversized parcel or freight shipping may be required depending on destination. Please contact me before purchasing if shipping is needed.
