I found this beautiful stalk on a birding trip in the Chiricahua mountains in south eastern Arizona. It is an incredible range and some of the most diverse bird populations in the world. The agaves are a bit different down there as well and so was able to grab a few unique stalks. This one would be one of the best for a beginner but also a blast for a professional player. With its think neck and good sized bell it has very strong back pressure with almost no breath required to start the drone. The narrow neck also makes overtones a cinch. I haven’t had a lot of time to play this one but when I first played it I knew that this had some incredible capabilities. Sound sample coming soon!

On a long harvest day I was about to call it until I saw this one calling from the top of the hill. It was the prize of the harvest as I love these thick Old Souls. If you look at my personal collection many have the characteristics of this one. It plays with ease and has a rich powerful drone with a warm overtone present in the drone when you push it right. It warms up quickly and when it opens up has so much power and response and even though its an open bore there is great back pressure. Like all agaves the vocal response is tremendous and the overtones are easy to reach as well. The pigments are beautiful in the wood which is one of my favorite qualities of these unique Old Souls. It’s hard to tell from the pics but the red and white patterns almost have a leopard look to it. Also, being an older stalk I was able to use all the bug holes throughout to fill them with turquoise. This would be great for any level player and a real gem!

I found this enormous stalk laying on the desert floor over a year ago. The extreme size and weight caused the flower to topple over as it was probably over 30 feet in length. It was still too soon to harvest a the time so I went back a year later to collect it and work on it. This would be an amazing didge for a sound healer as it registers close to 432hz. It has extreme volume and resonance and with the deep key of B it is mesmerizing. Despite its size it takes very little breath because of its strong back pressure . The big bore adds a ton of bass to the crisp drone. The vocals are amazing and with its length they really can travel the didge and create really unique effects. Making these large didges is time consuming but are well worth it when you get to play them and feel the power, volume, resonance, and vocals abilities that they contain.

I would really recommend this one to anyone that is using didgeridoo for sound healing purposes. This registered in C at 432 frequency. If you don’t know much about this tuning you should look up some of the literature on it. It also has such nice bright overtones that registered right in key as well. This one has a ton of volume and nice bass tones with its open bore. The great amount of back pressure makes circular breathing a cinch and the vocals are tremendous.
