Jumbie Jam Steel Pan - Floor Standing - Grey with Z stand

The Jumbie Jam is by far the best quality and most authentic sounding beginners' steel pan on the market. It's the perfect gift to encourage classes of young children to make music together and explore the sounds of the Caribbean. It has also become popular with older and more advanced musicians looking to add a tropical twist to their lives

This pan is supplied with the new adjustable metal Z stand instead of the plastic self-assembly stands that come with the other floor standing versions. The Z stand is easily height adjustable and  collapses down to allow for easy storage or transportation.

Each pan measures 40cm across and has a 6.5cm shallow skirt. When mounted on its stand, the whole assembly weighs just 2.38kgs making it very easy to handle. The pan itself is made from premium steel and built to Panyard's exact specification to ensure perfect intonation and playing ease.

The surface features eight labelled notes spanning a major scale from G4-G5. The beginners' guide includes 5 songs written in both simple letter grids and traditional notation and is available to download. There are several further books available, each including a CD of backing tracks for classroom playalong.

Often incorrectly referred to as steel drums, the whole instrument vibrates to make a pan's characteristic Caribbean sound which means they are properly classified as 'idiophones', the same family as cymbals. Colours available: Blue, Grey (steel), Pink, Purple.

The ‘Jumbie Jam Steel Pans – Floor Standing Steel Drums with Metal Z Stand – Grey’ - Pack of 4 - is also available for purchase.
