We are proud of our wide range of didgeridoos, which we believe is truly world class in both scope and quality. We go to considerable length to ensure that all the didgeridoos we sell are legally obtained and insist on the appropriate Forestry Permits where applicable. We also ensure that all art on the instruments is wholly the work of Aboriginal people. All our didgeridoos are naturally hollowed, by white ants or termites in the traditional way.
Our range is so extensive that we clearly cannot show them all. The few listed here show some of our most popular models but we have many more which we would like to show. To do this we can e-mail descriptions and digital colour photos of other models on request. If you don’t see what you want here, let us know and we will get back to you with information and images of didges that may suit you.
We grade the playing quality of our didges with a simple five class system.
"C" Class
"Concert" class, quite rare, the best.
1st Class
A really good quality didge, with a full, resonant, deep sound for beginner to expert, often with high quality art by renowned artists.
2nd Class
A lesser quality sound, mid range note, easy to play, suit beginner, often with very good art and good for display.
3rd Class
Playable, not such a high quality sound, often high note, may suit new learner, or with good art, may be ideal for display.
4th Class
Usually not playable at all; often with nice art, intended for display only.
Mini didgeridoos
Mini didgeridoos have a much higher note than the regular sized didgeridoos. Some are for playing and others are purely for decoration. The ones with beeswax around the mouthpiece are suitable for a child’s first didgeridoo, but it’s much harder to learn circular breathing on this size. Approx 75-80cm (29”-32”).
Emu Callers
Emu callers are not to blow at all, they are used like a hand drum by cupping a hand and beating over one open end. Emus are a very large flightless bird. The emu callers were traditionally used when hunting emus, to attract the bird out of the bush, by making the sound like an emu, using the emu caller. They also make an unusual vase for dried flowers, or an interesting conversation piece for the office!
All the didgeridoo prices shown on this site are listed in Australian dollars; for your local currency, use the currency converter.
With all of these didgeridoos we have supplied a photo to give you an example of the type of artwork and/or features of the didgeridoo, and a photo which will give you an indication of the length of the didgeridoo. As each didgeridoo is a hand painted original piece, each will have different colours and animals featured, and will not be identical to those shown in these images
