I couldn't imagine trying to learn how to play those. You could basically be a one man band with those though lol.

They sound so amazing.
Very hard to get one as well.

Ha, I was just looking at that!
To get one first hand they say you need to be hanging around in berne,switzerland during the fall months.
Second hand is a different story.....

Yeah, lol.
"BTW: If you are thinking of buying one, then you might find it to be very difficult. They are apparently as exclusive as special edition Ferraris. "

WTF?How does a thread about hang drums pop up when i begin researching them...??
Anyway,yeah the're exclusive,the company that's making them doesn't sell them anymore,they're taking a break to develop them more.Might be back for the summer but even then you have to send them a letter and they'll pick you...
Makes you wonder how all those street musicians got them...

"There were Ebay auctions with prices between 2,500 and 6,000 Euro. This agreement allows the Hang makers to try to keep the prices from ballooning. The price of an Integral Hang has been set at 1,300 Euro (status 2009)."

I've been wanting to get one since forever.. but they are a pain to get a hold of. When I last tried, I couldn't even find a second-hand one, and they stopped making them for a couple of years or so.

You can make a tank, or "hank" drum pretty cheap. Not the same but definitely worth it. I plan on making one when I get paid, I'll tell you how it goes!
A lot more info here.

Google: Hapi Drum
You can't buy a hang drum unless you wanted to pay up the ass for one of the very very few that were made, but Hapi drums are pretty much the same idea and a lot cheaper.
No, I don't own either of one

Yeah getting the official ones new is essentially impossible from what I understand.
They are so sweet though, and it's awesome to see someone good play one in person.
I tried to give the guy at Rothbury shit so many times. I didn't have any money, but he didn't want cigs or doses or anything. Saw a guy at SummerDance with a few other Shroomerites who was better than him too.

I met that dude at 10k Lake Festival, then saw him in Boulder a week later. He told me about the drum and was pretty interesting.
