A masterfully crafted stringed instrument that blends traditional design with exceptional craftsmanship. With a 40-inch overall length and a 9-inch gourd diameter, this ngoni offers a striking presence and a rich, resonant sound. Its walnut handles provide both strength and elegance, showcasing the natural beauty of the wood, while the hand-carved neck made from smooth mahogany delivers a comfortable and responsive playing experience.
At the heart of this ngoni’s sonic brilliance is its cocobolo and oak bridge, chosen for their ability to enhance the tonal clarity and warmth of each note. The precise 18:1 tuning ratio of the high-quality guitar tuners ensures impeccable tuning stability, allowing for pitch-perfect performance and an intuitive playing experience.
This ngoni is as much a visual masterpiece as it is a functional instrument, with its bold contrast of dark walnut, rich cocobolo, and the light, grainy oak bridge. This instrument invites you to explore the timeless sounds of West Africa with unparalleled precision and beauty. A true work of art, it connects you to the deep roots of tradition while providing modern performance capabilities.
