The Meinl Daf interprets a classical Persian frame drum with a rich tradition. With ring snares nearly all the way around the inside of the drum, the Daf is played with a lot of movement.

Meinl placed the rings in 3 sections, at the top of the Daf, and on the left and right sides. This tempers the effect of the ring snares while saving some weight. It also enables you to readily develop new techniques. Meinl equips the Daf with a great sounding and super-stable True Feel synthetic head, that is both comfortable to play and produces warm, open tones.
