"Lost in Darkwood"
Concert Quality Yidaki from Australia
|
|
 Crafted by Frank Thill
The red dot on the Australian map at left shows the region where this didgeridoo came from. Frank crafted this highly collectable yidaki (a didgeridoo from
Australia's north east Arnhem Land) to flawless perfection! This THUNDER STICK is
prized for its dramatic conical shaped bore, its flawless and well seasoned
timber, and its concert quality sound. A bit of push and the volume is off the hook! It's one of the LOUDEST, MOST DEADLY instruments I've ever played. Some didge sellers would ask twice our price for this one, so stop reading and grab it now if you see your name on it (and before I decide to just keep it). Frank worked with Djalu Gurruwiwi on many yidaki
until Frank received Djalu's blessing to craft proper instruments
on his own. This yidaki was made around 1996 during the onset of Frank's
worldwide recognition as a master craftsman. This is a very big and powerful
yidaki that's been held in a private collection. It is in excellent condition
without a single blemish. Fitted with an organic beeswax mouthpiece sanitized with Didgeri-Clean (tea tree and lavender oil). The mouthpiece can easily be adjusted to fit you perfectly. Instructions included. |
Soundwise: Concert quality sound with extraordinary harmonic resonance, strong
bass frequencies, and a very agreeable pitch for playing at any tempo.
It easily
responds to subtle changes in pressure, mouth shape, and vocals, effortlessly
gleaming from crickety chirps to tiki drums. Sassy, biting, twangy response to tongued riddims. It has a dramatic conical bore with myriad natural
nooks and crannies that offer up deadly tonal characteristics. Very easy
horn toots, all warm against the drone, and you'll discover multiple sonic hot spots that reside in and resound through this instrument.
Perfect backpressure for its size and pitch makes the circular breathing technique easier. This one's gonna find a home fast, mate, trust me. Please don't hesitate to
ring us up if you want to hear it
or ask any questions. 100%
Satisfaction Guaranteed. |
