About this product

Handmade Punjabi one-string tumbi: gourd, leather, bamboo neck, steel string, burned-in design.

The tumbi is a one-string instrument from the state of Punjab. Its sharp, rhythmic sound is recognised worldwide: it became an essential part of bhangra as well as ethnic and fusion music.

  • Resonator: gourd covered with leather
  • Neck: bamboo
  • String: steel
  • Finish: designs burned in by hand

For all its simple build, the tumbi has a bright, expressive tone. It is easy to learn and compact, and suits professionals and beginners alike for live shows, recording and ethnic projects.
