Okedo-Taiko

Crafted from quartersawn Japanese cedar, the body of this drum is stave-constructed in the style of a Japanese barrel. The pitch of this instrument can be changed by adjusting the rope tension. The body of this drum is much longer and generally of a larger diameter than an Eitetsu-style Okedo. The bachi for this drum are typically long and crafted from split bamboo.
