Best Quality Hirado Daiko

Keyaki Taiko With Short Body Making Best Sounds

Keyaki Wood

Keyaki (Japanese zelkova) is the best material for the nagado daiko. It has been used for various situations in Japan since a long time ago. Japanese have used it for furniture, taiko body, and also wooden building such as temples and castles because it's easily-worked, hard, and durable.  Especially, taiko with keyaki kurinuki (hollowed-out) body is the excellent quality taiko. In general, taiko which has a hard wood body reflects more sounds inside the body and keeps the sound reverberation for longer time. It's the reason why the keyaki wood taiko produces the deeper sounds than other taiko does.
