i started with a PVC pipe one i made myself out of 5 feet of pipe.

i got my basic circular breathing down on that for about 3 months.

i got myself a aboriginal Eucalyptus trunk, termite hollowed didje.

its GORGEOUS. i had to relearn everything on it, but i tooted that thing for hours every day for a looong time.

didj can change you haha

actualy i'd suggest you DON'T buy an expensive didge from the internet... it's too risky and you might be very disappointed!

your best bet is either buying a cheap PVC one and learning on it
or finding somewhere where you can physically go out and check a specific didge so you know what you're getting

everyone has their own style and it's very important to find a didge that fits YOU
it makes NO diffrance what it looks like or who made it...
it can be "an original ant hollowed aboriginal crafted didge" with superb sound that you'd HATE playing on...

either way i would'nt spend more then 150-200 USD for a first didge

the one i saw was at some instrument store... he had a few different kinds ranging from 50-200. I tried the cheapest and the most expensive. Id rather spend the extra 100 or so to get the really nice one. I was never taught how to use one but i know how to do the basic sound. I would love to go today and pick it up but i got work for the next 3 days so i cant really go until tuesday.. I hope no one buys the one i wanted

If you want to find out how you get an authentic one check this site http://www.ididj.com.au/


Quote:

Every year, hundreds of thousands of didgeridoos are sold around the world. The sad thing about this is that less than 0.01% of these didgeridoos could be called authentic... even sadder is the fact that the didgeridoo industry is now worth millions of dollars and traditional Aboriginal custodians of the instrument hardly get to see a cent of it.

iDIDJ Australia wants to do something about this and we would like you to help us! Please study our Cultural Indications (CI) Index below. This is basically a system for differentiating didgeridoos on the basis of origins and cultural integrity. Whenever possible, we educate consumers in the benefits of supporting the traditional Aboriginal custodians of the didgeridoo - and we explain why CI 4 instruments are the best.

We strongly discourage consumers from spending their didgeridoo dollars on manufactured or mass-produced instruments which fall into the CI 0, CI 1, and CI 2 categories. Note, however, that good quality product and ethical instrument makers can be found in these categories... many hobby craftsmen, in the USA and Europe for example, hand-make excellent quality didgeridoos from a variety of materials and methods and these can be purchased at a reasonable price. These craftsmen - and you'll find out who they are with some research - do not represent their creations as something they are not.

Some mass-producers and manufacturers, on the other hand, are alleged to have breached trade practices laws by labelling their didgeridoos as authentic or Aboriginal-made when they clearly are not... and others have been caught illegally cutting and mass-harvesting trees without the proper permits... sometimes on Aboriginal lands!







there's an authenticity label apparently. But if you're going with pvc don't worry

i have 2 authentic australian importet didgeridoos out of mallee eucaliptus... beautiful pieces handmade in a small factory in which only aborigines work... (by handmade i mean treated and varnished... the actual hollowing-out work was done by the termites)

the sad thing is that with the didg boom in the last years manufacturers are cutting down every tree that has even remotely been touched by termites... so even if the branch has only half an inch hollowed out by termites the rest is drilled out and thus the instrument loses is natural sound...
