What type of paint or ink might work?** A: Yes, I painted mine with acrylic paint and it looks beautiful and did not affect the playing. So happy with this drum. **Q: Can this drum be painted?** A: Hi, I am a graphic designer and artist and I have painted several of these drums with both acrylic paint and acrylic markers. (Some people use oil paint as well.) Sharpie pens can be used as well but acrylics have a higher lightfastness so I would recommend that. I use Molotow markers and Molotow UV acrylic varnish in matte to seal the artwork off - as a protection of the paint. Posca markers are also good. It is also a good idea not to totally cover the drum head and leave some space empty. Don't apply too much paint or it will dampen the tone. I created a 30 minute tutorial on Youtube how to paint the Remo Buffalo Drum, search for that if you want to see in detail how to do it. I hope this helps! It is a wonderful process to paint your own drum and I would encourage you to go for it! **Q: Can someone answer if the mallet is made of wood as pictured or if it has a black plastic handle?** A: Hi: The mallet here is made of wood. I have not received any Remo drum mallets that are plastic. I have 10 or so drums now. Tom **Q: what do you use to decorate the drum head? paint, paint pens, sharpies?** A: I have painted several of these drums with both acrylic paint and acrylic markers.

Home use, outdoor. Drum circles ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I love this drum *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 13 June 2015* I love this drum. I have one that is made from real Horse skin.and although it sounds amazing, its highly sensitive to changes in temperatures, and if it gets cold and you have no fire to warm it by (highly unlikely when walking through the woods or standing by oneself on a hillside somewhere lol!) then you cant use it. And I walk along happily drumming and before you know it, "thud thud" the sound goes "dead" and it is sooooo frustrating! You can warm it up by rubbing it with your hand but on a cold day, I do not have any success.That is why I was recommended this drum. Its synthetic nature means that is can be played in all temperatures. So this is my drum of choice when I want to drum outside and am not at a Shamanic circle where there is a fire to warm the skin. I am SUPER pleased with this Remo drum!!!Some people are of the opinion that Synthetic skinned drums are no where near as good to use as real skin, however although with real skin you can get such a wonderful range of sounds etc, the synthetic one is still absolutely amazing. I love the sound of this one but rather than saying the real skin is "better" I just feel personally that these are not really comparable and that having both real horse and a fake Buffalo, I love them both the same!. I use it for journeying and its great. I also have friends who use synthetic drums for Shamanic healing and they work just as well as a real skin drum , although I do not use this for treatments, and that is nothing to do with this drum, it is just because my horse drum and I have a solid working relationship when it comes to using it on clients for drum diagnosis and such like so that is the only one I use. The only thing I found is that I was not keen on the beater. Probably just me, I do not know. So made my own to add the personal touch. The stick is boring as well for me so I used a piece of Hazel wood for mine. I also used sharpie pens to draw on mine as I found it too plain, but others may love this. I used a black colour with a little green and red to draw and write my designs on it.. Lots of people have tried using it and all say they like the feel and sound of it. It is really well made and arrived super quick! Thank you, I will love this for many years to come. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 18 March 2026* Just wow! I've been a Reiki practitioner for 25yrs. Have been at many events with drums but never took the plunge. After careful consideration Remo has a good reputation. Oh my does the 16inch drum pack a punch. The beater that comes with it is very good too. The sound, is deep and hearty, at times it keeps resonating. I hope to use this in healing and drumming circles. For 100pds, it's beautifully made, looks great and will keep up with any Shamanic drum I've ever heard. Get one...you won't be disappointed. ## Frequently Bought Together - Remo E1-0316-00 Buffalo Drum - Standard, 16" - Bodhran Economy Case, 16" x 4.5" - Roosebeck - Remo Buffalo Drum - Black Earth, 16" --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.sa/products/49667375-remo-e1-0316-00-3-5x16-inch-buffalo-drum](https://www.desertcart.com.sa/products/49667375-remo-e1-0316-00-3-5x16-inch-buffalo-drum) --- *Product available on Desertcart Saudi Arabia* *Store origin: SA* *Last updated: 2026-09-20*
