Meet the Black Sparks Sombaty Plus Darbuka — a masterpiece by Arabian Instruments, meticulously handcrafted in Egypt for musicians who value strength, beauty, and authentic sound. This is more than just a drum — it’s a symbol of artistry and performance excellence.
The Sombaty Plus design delivers a larger, deeper, and more resonant tone, perfect for stage, studio, and ensemble performances. Constructed with an extra-thick aluminum body, the Black Sparks Darbuka offers unmatched sound projection and clarity. Expect rich, booming “Dooms,” crisp “Tacs,” and cutting “Slaps” that stand out in any mix.
With 8 precision tuning pegs, you can fine-tune your sound with absolute accuracy — whether you’re performing live or recording in the studio.
The darbuka’s black aluminum shell is beautifully decorated with white mother-of-pearl inlay, resembling glowing sparks across a dark surface — the inspiration behind its name. Each piece is hand-inlaid by skilled Egyptian artisans, ensuring that no two drums are ever identical. The result is a stunning fusion of traditional Egyptian craftsmanship and modern artistic flair.
