Gomikan Practice Taiko Drum
This practice drum, called gomikan, is sometimes called a trash can drum. It’s designed with spring-loaded latches to quickly disassemble for storage or transport and reassemble for playing. You can fit three drums in the space usually occupied by one. It’s got double metal rings at the top to create a solid platform for multiple layers of heavy-grade T-Rex brand clear packing tape. The tension and durability of the tape provide a long lasting and excellent sound. The body is a re-purposed industrial fiber drum, a strong and lightweight material which can be primed and painted if desired.
Every gomikan comes with loops to attach a strap, and two supports to hold the drum for naname style.
