X8 Drums Testimonials

"I just received my Pro Ramadan drum. It is absolutely beautiful. It's got great base notes and fantastic high notes. The rim shot notes are amazing. i ordered it on Saturday and have it for my drumming circle tonight (Tuesday). I didn't expect to have it that fast. They should put you guys in charge of General Motors, heck, Obama should put you in charge of the whole economy. That would solve that. Thanks for a great drum. Will pass your name on to my drumming buds and will certainly buy again." Mark L. from Millerton, NY

"THANK YOU for sharing the excellent article on the "Healing Qualities of the Hand Drum." It will be most useful in my work, as a Chaplain, with residents at our long term care facility. In fact, I am in the process of arranging for a drum circle workshop for residents and family members at our facility. Thanks again. "Michael

"Hi. I just recieved one of your drums, the Ramadan Pro, and I had to thank you. The sound from this drum is amazing and the craftsmanship is beautiful. I almost feel unworthy to play such an instrument. I know where I will be buying any drums I need in the future. Thanks again." Dan

"Just received my new 14" Ruby Pro and it is the most incredible drum I have ever played. Cannot believe how crisp the tones and slaps are as well as a great bass. The drum itself is so beautiful and the workmanship impeccable. "Michael

"I just bought a 12" ruby djembe. I have always been "skeptical" about buying an instrument on line. I called X8 Drums for questions and they assured me I would be very happy with my purchase. I got my drum last week and I absolutely love it! It's everything I expected. Mark, your customer service is incredible. Know that I will continue doing business with you. You guys are awesome! "Vera (FL)

"I just got the djembe (14" Ruby Pro) yesterday. It's everything I could want in a larger drum - nice tight tones, crisp slaps, impressive bass, and an excellent overall package. The shell shape, carving, and staining are expertly done and the rope-work is superb. It easily compares to other professional traditional djembes I've seen for twice the price." Bob, Acworth, GA

"My Djembe drum arrived - literally "sound" and safely! I love the tone and the resonance and the craftsmanship of this drum!" Jutta, PA

"The X8 djembe I bought was even better quality and sound than I had hoped for. The customer service, personal advice on size and shape, and the overall quality of service and product is top notch. Highly recommended for anyone interested in purchasing a new djembe and accessories. Care in using only legally harvested products is a huge plus as well." Michael, Greensboro, NC

CaptainSpicy, Baltimore, MD

"I just wanted to thank Mark and you again for being so helpful when I was choosing my first djembe. I love my Kalimantan and have played in a small drum circle already and played along with a couple of CD's today - another small drumming session tomorrow evening!
