Vibe drums is one of the pioneers in steel tongue drum making and they have one of the best quality tongue drums available. The notes vibrate for longer than less expensive drums, the tongues are properly spaced so the vibration of one does not interfere with the sound of another tongue, and the tongue has the telltale vibedrum octagonal shape to ¨maximize the sweet spot¨ playing surface of each tongue.
Vibedrums is a small family based business that began in Europe in 2008 and later opened a manufacturing facility in Arizona in 2015. This means Vibedrums are able to offer you a steel tongue drum made in the USA, which are hard to come by.

While you CAN find tongue drums for less money, you’ll need to accept flat, possibly untuned notes and unimpressive, tinny sound.
Thats not the case with this high quality Sonic Energy drum. This BIG 12 inch drum has a BIG robust, rich tone.
It is a beautiful and meditative instrument, all notes are harmonic so no matter what notes you hit, they all sound great together.
The A Akebono tuning allows you to wander around the drum, because being based on a Japanese scale, you can start or move anywhere, and the notes all resonate well together.
The Meinl is the best steel tongue drum available on Amazon, hands down.

Scale info: C Major.
See all Burning & Lin Steel Tongue Drums on Amazon
Number of Sounds and Drum Diameter: 15 note, 14 inch diameter tongue drum.
Production notes: Made in China, shipped from Amazon warehouse in the United States.
The Burning and Lin offer budget priced steel tongue drums and are great as a starter tongue drums.
This is one of the largest tongue drums in our lineup at 15 inches with 14 notes which allows it to play a much larger selection of music. Unfortunately the notes are labeled as numbers and its hard to figure our what notes the numbers correspond to so I created this chart to help you figure out the notes:
NOTE: Most inexpensive beginner steel tongue drums on Amazon that are made in China are tuned to C major. So a tongue labeled 1 is a C, note 2 is D, 3 is E, 4 is F, 5 is G, 6 is A and 7 is B and they repeat.
This DOES NOT apply to custom steel tongue drums and steel tongue drums made in the US. In all cases I include the scale of the drum in my steel tongue drum reviews so you know where you are at.
Some have mentioned that the notes of the Burning & Lin drums are not as clear or resonant as higher priced drums, and considering this is a 15 note drum, that makes sense. Having 15 notes places the tongues close together and can interfere with tone.
Nevertheless many are very happy with this drum especially considering the price, its size, and the number of notes it is able to play.
Scale info: Tuned to C Major pentatonic scale (G3 C4 D4 E4 G4 A4 C5 D5) with warm clean tones tunable in 3 different octaves set to 432Hz.
Potential tunings include C Major Pentatonic, C Minor Pentatonic, Raga Desh, Dorian Pentatonic and Mixolydian Pentatonic with the standard magnet tuning kit. With the advanced magnet pack, there are hundreds of different tuning options.
Here is a video tutorial on how to change the tuning on a Domina Idiopan
Number of Sounds and Drum Diameter: 8 note tunable tank drum with 12 inch diameter.
Drum Material: American made steel
Production notes: Idiopan steel tongue drums made in the USA, are made using American steel in Palm Bay Florida.
The Idiopan Domina is a pentatonic steel tongue drum that is tunable to 5 different pentatonic scales. (Find out what pentatonic scales are in the FAQs below)
The scales are tuned using magnets, which is innovative and clever. With the advanced magnet pack there are literally hundreds of tuning options available.
The sound of all Idiopan steel Tongue drums is rich, resonant and the tones are long lasting.
Given their superior sound, the fact that these hank drums are made in the USA and the fact that they are tunable to so many scales, the Idiopan is the best steel tongue drum for the serious musician.

Number of Sounds and Drum Diameter: 11 tones, 12 inch diameter drum.
Drum Material: Steel.
Production notes: Made in China, shipped from nearest US Amazon warehouse.
Overall review:
This cheap tongue drum is made in China and can be considered a great beginner steel tongue drum.
The sound quality is understandably not as high as more expensive drums, partly due to the fact that it does have so many notes, so that places the tongues very close together which can cause cross vibration between tongues.
But… If ou are looking for tongue drum reccomendations for beginners, Lomuty is one of the better brands in the beginner price range.
I believe this drum has a beautiful look, and if you are in the market for an affordable tongue drum, it is a great contender.

Number of Sounds and Drum Diameter: 9 notes with a 14 inch diameter.
Drum Material: Copper infiltrated steel.
Production notes: Made in China.
Overall review:
BeatRise makes affordably priced tank drums that sound great for their price range.
Like handpans, these tongue drums are super easy to play with your hands, which is not always true for cheap tongue drums. The beatrise is my tongue drum reccomendation if you want a handpan, but the entry price for one is too high, and you want to try out a similar drum first. The quality and sound will not dissapoint.
The sound is clear and in tune, and playing with mallets will be loud, if that is what you are after.
While BeatRise drums are made in China, if you order from Amazon they are shipped from a US based amazon warehouse.

They come standard with a set of soft padded mallets and a set of firm mallets, plus a set of finger picks to play the steel tongue drum with your hands, so you can really change up the sound. They also come with a stylish sling carry case which I love.
This drum is well made, arrives in tune and is a delight to play. Its a great steel tongue drum for beginners.

With the tongue drum, its important to find the sweet spot to get a good sound. On higher and smaller tongue notes, this spot may be lower down on the tongue, and this is the case with these Rakumi steel tongue drums.
This drum offers its best sound when you use it with mallets, using your hands yeilds a softer, quieter sound.
Although these steel tongue drums have a lower price point and are made in China, the manufacturer takes the time to tune them before shipping.
You will notice if you look at the tongue cut carefully that you can see where the laser cut was made and on some tongues there will be a finer, thiner cut where the tongue was fine tuned.
Overall, these are great cheap tongue drums.

The sound is decent, the notes have a bell or gong like tone, but some of the higher notes are a little muddy. However, for the price they are good beginner tongue drums.

What is the difference between a steel tongue drum vs a Handpan?
To start with let’s just say there are similarities between these two drums, as well as differences. To start, both drums are generally made from steel and are part of the idiophone family. They both make absolutely beautiful, high vibration music.
I have researched both types of drums and there are FOUR things that stand out to me when you compare a steel tongue drum vs handpan. Those FOUR things are size/shape, price , overall sound and how they are played.
First, handspans are generally larger, sometimes much larger, and shaped like a UFO with a defined rim. Handpans are not only wider but taller as well. For example, the largest steel tongue drum may be 13 or 14 inches in diameter. An average size handpan like this Acolyte handpan, is 21 inches, much larger and not as portable as a tongue drum.
Second, handpan notes are hand hammered, whereas a tongue drum has laser cut tongues. Due to the size, and time it takes to manufacture a handmade, hand hammered, handpan, the handpan is usually many times more expensive than a steel tongue drum. It is what it is folks.
Third, the handpan and the steel tongue drum have a different vibe, a different sound. Steel tongue drums remind me somewhat of a bell, the resonance of each note struck does not linger as long as a handpan. The handpan has a more ethereal sound that lingers longer and allows notes to blend together.
Fourth, Handpans, as the name implies, are played by hand, whereas steel tongue drums deliver the best sound, IMHO, when mallets are used.
This is like asking me which of my pets is my favorite. lol.
Personally, I love both instruments and they both have a place in my home, meditation and sound healing practice. I love the portability of the steel tongue drum, and sometimes have a hankering for the bell like chime of my steel tongue dry. Other times I just want to sit down and jam with my handpan. Its all about how I feel in the moment. I think they are both great instruments.
Looking for more info on handspans? I love sound healing and I have done quite a bit of research on handspans so check out the two articles listed below.
Find out list of the best handpan makers and a a comprehensive list of all handspans made in the USA here.
Steel tongue drums can be played by hand, but in most cases, especially with budget drums, they sound more vibrant and resonate better when hit with mallets. The tongues on a hank drum have a specific ¨sweet spot¨ where the tone sounds the best, and a mallet is the right tool to accurately tap it.
The Steel Tongue drums with the best sound, IMHO are :
The Rav Vast steel tongue drums from Russia
The VibeDrum steel tongue drum made in the USA
The Guda FreezBee steel tongue drums made in the Ukraine
The KosmySky Steel Tongue drum Handcrafted in Russia
Some great starter steel tongue drums that are budget priced affordable hank drums with relatively high quality compared to price are:
Lronbird Tongue drum
Lomuty Steel Tongue Drums
Rakumi Steel Tongue Drum
Burning & Lin Steel Tongue Drum Chakra Tank Drum
You need to either find out from the manufacturer what the scale is or you can use a tuner or tuning app on your phone to determine each note and discover the scale.
Using a tuning app, play each note and the tuner app will tell you the letter note. Then type the notes you come up with into a google search and a scale should be returned in your search results.
As I mentioned earlier, inexpensive tongue drums made in China are often set to a C Minor scale.
So…
C Major (for 12 inch drum) with 13 notes. Notes are C,D,E,F,G,A,B Where 1 is C, 2 is D, 3 is E 4 is F, 5 is G, 6 is A, 7 is B.
And that drum would be tuned like this.
If your drum is tuned to a different scale, say D Major, the D, in the D major scale would correspond to the 1 on your tongue drum.
Since the D Major 7 note scale is D, E, F#, G, A, B, C#, D is 1, E is 2, F# is 3, G is 4, A is 5, B is 6 and C# is 7.
There are two common types of scales used for Steel Tongue drums, Pentatonic and Heptatonic.
Within these two classifications there are several common scales.
PENTATONIC SCALES FOR THE STEEL TONGUE DRUM
Pentatonic scales have 5 tones in each octave. So even if the steel drum has say 11 tongues, the scale will repeat the same 5 notes is a higher octave.
Eg. An E minor pentatonic scale is E G A B and D. If it had 11 notes, they would be E G A B D, next higher octave E G A B and D and E of the following higher octave.
(Note E minor also has a Heptatonic scale which is E F# G A B C D)
Pentatonic scales with their 5 repeating notes, have a special quality in that all the notes harmonize. That means no matter which note you strike, it will sound good with any other note.
The pentatonic scales are perfect for meditation, sound therapy and just jamming, because you do not have to know any songs to play, all the notes sound good no matter which order they are played, so you just go with the flow.
HEPTATONIC SCALES FOR THE STEEL TONGUE DRUM
Heptatonic scales have 7 notes per octave and if a steel tongue drum has more than 7 tongues, those notes repeat.
Eg: the E E minor heptatonic scale is E F# G A B C D.
7 note heptatonic scales are used for playing familiar wester tunes. Heptatonic scales are used on steel tongue drum sheet music and tabs to play specific songs.
Steel tongue drums with heptatonic scales are great for learning to play songs and read music, but they can also be used for meditation and sound therapy, they do not necessarily have to be used to play s specific song.
The numbers on your tongue drum correspond to the key it is tuned to. Many inexpensive steel tongue drums from China are tuned to C Major.
So a tongue labeled 1 is a C Note, 2 is D, 3 E, 4 F, 5 G, 6 A and 7 B and they repeat. If a number has a dot below it, it belongs to the lower octave, if there is no dot, the note belongs to the middle octave, and if there is a dot above the note, the note belongs to the higher octave.
I made this steel tongue drum diagram of numbers and notes for a 14 note tongue drum tuned to C Major to illustrate.
D Major Tuning numbers to notes
Many inexpensive drums made in China are tuned to C Major, a popular and pleasing scale that can be used for playing familiar tunes.
However, not all are tuned to C Major.
In the example below, this Asmuse tank drum is the steel tongue drum diagram is tuned to D Major.
Looking for steel tongue drum notes or tabs? Here are some FUN popular song tutorials for the steel tongue drum. Most of these songs have steel tongue drum sheet music of tabs in the video or video description so they make great, easy to learn steel tongue drum tutorials.

Category 2 consists of handmade artesian lounge drums made individually.
Both groups have their good points and drawbacks. There are things to consider before purchasing your tongue drum that I will mention so you can think about it before you buy your tongue drum. With that said, let’s dive in.
