Bubinga Shawm 400x65x65 mm

Overview Bubinga Shawm 400x65x65 mm:

In Maderas Barber we have 3 sizes available for the construction of shawms, depending on the tastes of the builder or if it will be based on one of the many regional models (Aragonese, Castilian, gralla...).

Bubinga, an African wood sometimes called African Rosewood for having a certain resemblance to some Dalbergias, is a very hard wood, of reddish-pinkish tones, with very characteristic deep red streaks. Its mechanical qualities make it an ideal wood, along with the rest of the other woods we have selected for the same function, for its use as raw material in the construction of wind instruments such as bagpipes and shawms.
