Fusion time again! After taking some time away from making them I have had more time to experiment and so happy to have created this unique didge! Kind of crazy to think at 6 feet that this is in D#. I combined two very resonant and different agaves as the top piece was a very small dense agave that tapers perfectly to the bell of this larger agave.  They seemed to be a perfect match as this is such an incredibly fun and versatile didge. This has so much volume and response and can play so strong in every style. I love playing it in an ambient style as it has such an ease to the drone and so many harmonics and bass tones. With this shape and longer bell is makes it almost sound like it has a built in amplifier. The vocals are so strong, the overtones insanely easy, and those that like to drop the drone the shape lends itself well for that style as well as well as a higher drone with ease. This one can do everything and might just break you out of a slump if you feel stuck in your playing as it is just a blast to play. Would be and incredible performance didge!

I remember when I found this stalk out on my harvest. Some just stand out in my mind as it is so exciting to find ones like this.  I just loved its shape and dense thicker wood. I love these Old Souls that have tons of bug holes and cracks that show their time in the harsh desert. This one definitely gained lots of wisdom from its time out there. This is such a calming didge to me and after playing it  I felt this real peace and seemed to slow me down. I noticed while playing a bear face formed from spots in the floor. I love how didge can make you see things differently and the visuals that come to you. The drone has such beautiful bass tones and the overtones and vocals are so strong and clear. I chose the mouthpiece to compliment the amazing coloration in the bell which are similar to bubinga and purpleheart. I love its rhythmic ability and it just can move with you. It loves to play in an ambient way as well with its healing drone. I can’t wait to see where this one ends up!

This is a firecracker of a didge and wants to play fast right out of the box! I love these shorter fast taper didges as they are so responsive to rhythmic play and this one has such a solid drone with great back pressure and so effortless to play. Awesome vocal and clear overtones with easy transitions. This one really stood out when I harvested it as it just rings when you knock on it which translates to amazing response as a didge. It quickly went to the front of the line of ones I was working on as these are just a blast to play. Agave never ceases to amaze me! A great didge for every style and every skill level!

Some agaves just have a shape that feels magical and this is one of them. It is hard to tell you how amazing this one is until you see its form in person. When you play it, you will see how magical it is. as well. Incredible response and plays with amazing speed and in an ambient style is so powerful. I love F and has always been one of my favorite keys. Always one that we need to nourish the heart. Such an easy didge to play and has an incredibly soothing tone with easy transitions to overtones and vocals are so crystal clear. Perfect for every style player and such a unique and beautiful form!

This is light as a feather and more powerful than you can imagine. I was blown away by how   incredibly responsive and easy this one is to play. The drone is so sweet  and soothing. It has amazing rhythmic and percussive capabilities with its longer neck that tapers to the beautiful flared bell. This is perfect for beginners to really explore all the possibilities you can create with the instrument and perfect for every level to expand your playing and create new sounds and rhythms. If you are learning circular breathing here is a great teacher. If you are a master at it this will practically play itself.  The overtones are so easy and just sing with the drone and so easy to transition to. Vocals are strong and this one also has tremendous volume. This is a special didge that will inspire so much and would be great for every level and any style of play. Would be a great performance didge! A powerful gem that will bring you so much inspiration!

If I were to design my perfect didge this agave plant may have just read my mind somehow! I have made around 600 didges in 21 years and this is in the top 10. I almost don’t know how to write about it as it just kind of blows me away. As you can see from the weight this is one is thick and has such dense resonant wood. It has a perfect taper to create such explosive abilities and tremendous volume. C# also happens to be one of my favorite keys on top of it. The drone is just so powerful and crisp with amazing bass tones. The vocals are so clear and can really project out of the thick bell. The overtones are bright and so easy to transition to from the drone. This one can play anything you want it to and feels like it is collaborating with you while playing inspiring new ideas on the fly. This is a very rare agave as I don’t see many with this shape and density. I could go on and on but just kind of in awe of it really. If this thing is here much longer it is going to my personal collection. If it goes somewhere else it will give a lifetime of joy every time you pick it up.

An Old Soul that Instantly soothes your soul as you feel the deep resonance and bass tones. This thick agave has so much character to its drone and so much vocal and harmonic capabilities that accent this deep tone. This one requires such a little amount of air and has tremendous back pressure for quick response and easy rhythms. This would be great for meditative style of play and sound healing. So easy to create ambient landscapes with all the sounds it can respond to. Ready to help calm you in these stressful times!

Another thicker Old Soul agave I found in this new area I have been exploring. I just love how these sound and two of may favorites in my collection look and play very similar to this one. This one really had an instant calming effect and registered in E at 432hz. Although that can fluctuate with temp and humidity this has such a healing feel to it. Incredible bass tones and so responsive to every slight variation. This would be such a great fit for sound healing and traveling but can play strong in any style as well as it can play with a ton of speed as well as excelling in ambient styles. Such a powerful didge!

My amazing artist friend called this the wiggly worm, and that is so perfect! This is such a unique stalk with incredible curves. It is one of the most dense agaves I have harvested in 20 plus years now. I love how these thicker Old Souls play and this has so much response it kind of blows my mind. The bass tones mixed with the easy overtones  and strong vocals is incredible. This would be the perfect fit for every player as it has so much response and just plays in such an effortless way. I love D# for its uplifting feel and this one is one of a kind and this is a hard one to let go but can’t wait to see where it lands!
