Master craftsman, Michael Thiele has done it again!! You've seen
his magical tongue drums and heard
the mystical sounds that come from them. Many people ask us
"How does he do it? How do you take some pieces of wood
- ordinary looking wood - and create such elegant, musical instruments
that provide so much melodic beauty?"
Well, we can't really answer that question. That's why Michael
is the master that he is. Only someone of Michael's extreme
talent could create such cleverly crafted boxes to serve as finely
tuned instruments.
Michael has continued to amaze us with his tongue
drums and the variety of specialty tunings he offers. But
now - well these Concert Coffee Tables speak for themselves.
The tabletop surface is 52"x30". The pedestal sound chamber
is 28" long x 13.5" wide x 16" high. The drum is
chorded G A D B minor.
This is a 12 note drum that is made of a variety of hardwoods and
shapes to suit any interior design. The
chamber has approximately 10 times the interior volume of any of
the 18" 12 note drums we carry.
The drums have a very deep, very sweet and extremely enchanting
sound.
Pricing structure is $4900 to $7900. Upon ordering, we require
35% up front to start production.
Michael calls these his "Concert Coffee Tables" and with
very good reason. You truly can play a concert with them.
They can be shipped for around $385 within the continental U.S.
via moving & transfer trucking service or, depending upon your
location, may be delivered personally.
There is a limited production of 100 of these tables a year. Michael
assigns a production number and signs each table. We will be providing
sound clips to the website as soon as Michael has finished recording
in the studio.
