Hi Kyle, I can’t thank you enough for creating this amazing instrument. I wanted to tell you that when I first took it out of the shipping box and played it, I was floored — nothing prepared me for the experience of holding and making sound with a real agave stalk crafted into an instrument. I’ve been fortunate enough to own and play some wonderful guitars in my life, where I’ve always felt a connection to the wood they’re made from, but blowing into an agave — it’s another level of connection to the wood, the plant. Almost like “playing” a tree itself. I love the way you’ve left the texture on the outside, without filling the cracks, so the instrument has a “raw” quality, but yet the gemstones make it into a visual work of art. And of course the sound is just otherworldly.
Rudi, Boston, MAIt came!! It’s more beautiful than I could have imagined!! It might be the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen!! I’m not going to lie. I slept with it in my bed last night 🙂
Ayla, Dallas, TXKyle, just opened the Didge! Omg it’s so beautiful! Like a piece of art! Wonderful! Can’t wait to get the next one! You are truly a master artist Kyle. Congatulations…these are real masterpieces!!
Dabney, Franklin, NCKYLE THIS THING IS INCREDIBLE!!!! It came off the truck in perfect condition and you’re packaging was awesome, I just jammed on it for a couple minutes and I am so happy I didn’t hesitate on buying it, I’m so psyched!!! Thanks again and depending on my self control you’ll probably be hearing from me again in the future lol, cheers brother!!
Adam, Oakland, NJMorning Kyle! Yes it arrived last night and I couldn’t be happier 🙂 I love it, it’s very easy to play and it’s amazing how light they are compared to my eucalyptus didge. Thanks again for the care and love you put into creating these instruments. Already looking forward to the next one haha. 2nd and 3rd didges: I’m blown away with how amazing they are, couldn’t be happier. Thank you for making them! The B plays so loud!!! You weren’t kidding when you called it a monster! Thanks again!
Nick, Raleigh, NCWanted you to know that the beautiful Didge arrived in perfect condition on Friday pm as you felt it would. I was very eager to unpack it quickly and try it out. I was quite disappointed. It sounded muffled and flat. However, once I removed the the roll of bubble wrap from the bell end it played as I dreamed it would…amazing sound…clear, vibrant, an lively. It is, by its very nature, teaching me more about playing potential. So appreciate your work, Kyle
David, Vernon, BC, Canada
Hi Kyle, stepping up from a fiberglass training slider to a real instrument, I had no idea how much difference it’s gonna make. The sound is full and beautiful, with constant bass undertones. I love to play and even let the family listen, which is a big deal for me, I never played anything in my life.
My lady asked me to play to relief physical pain and the cat always comes in the room-this is how he listens, with his paw on the vibrating instrument.
Your creation really made an impact in our lives.
So thank you,2nd didgeridoo purchase:
Hi Kyle! The instrument arrived safe and sound. It’s a beautiful piece of art, with rich colors of deep agave brown and the blue epoxy fillings. And the RRRRRRICH sound of it! What I didn’t realize from the pictures, and I think only the player sees it- is the helix spiral as it goes down towards the bell. Does that have something to do with the incredible deep vibration of the sound by the time it explodes out the bell end? Thanks again for your creation.. this time I have a feeling I bought a rare masterpiece because of the special shape— so glad I followed my instinct from hearing the sound sample.
Pavel, Czech Republic
Your didgeridoo’s are pure magic. They each have such a beautiful spirit. We played for 8 hours straight yesterday, passing them all around and having such a blast. Thank you so much for your generosity and artistry! We are ready for another if you come up with something that will fit nicely in our collection. Whatever you recommend we will take it.
Scott, Eric, Steve, Phoenix, AZ
I received it today and it has a ton of power! It’s also quite a statement piece, too. I’ll have to check in with you again in a few months as I’m certain to want to purchase another one.
Michael, New Hill, NC
Yes, whoa Kyle, this didge is really special! I’m so glad I got the more expensive one. It’s a truly amazing sound and looks and feels beautiful too. The only problem is now my eucalyptus didge sounds a bit empty in comparison
Alex, Hong Kong, China
Thank you for all the advice, the didge arrived safe and sound, and it plays amazing I’ve been jamming non stop, never had a didge that feels like this one. Thank you again for all the work you put into creating it!
Finnegan, Farmington, UT
Hi, Kyle, I’ve now been with my new didge from you for a couple weeks. First
Dave, Weaverville, NC
off, it’s beautiful to look at, with the glossy finish and turquoise
accents. But I especially love the clear drone and harmonics. It
speaks easily and the first toot is very easy to get. I really like
the back pressure, too. Unsurprisingly, my other didges are feeling
neglected. Great work—thank you!
I own some excellent didgeridoos, e.g. some made by Bruce Rogers. Although each didgeridoo is unique and impressive in its own way, my three didgeridoos from Kyle in A, B and F, which I have been playing for some time now, stand out clearly; they are the instruments I love to play with the most. In addition to the fact that Kyle designs these instruments beautifully and with perfect quality, they have an exceptional sound and excellent playability: the feeling when playing is incomparable. In my opinion, this feeling is also created by using the agave. The wood is light as a feather and still fairly hard and it is therefore particularly suitable for huge, low-pitched didgeridoos. Above all, you can feel the swing of the wood exceptionally well between your lips and in your hands. To look into this experience gives great pleasure and increases the sensitivity for the instrument and thus the ability to play.
Gerd, Berlin, Germany
Hi Kyle! Yes yes, it has arrived. I am loving it already, the shape the sound the love that’s gone into the making. Thank you for getting it to me safe and soundly. I had thought. to send a photo as proof but of course there’s tracking! I appreciate the personal note sent with the didgeridoo, too. Always good to have a good vibration between folk. I hope I’ll get another chance to respond after I’ve gotten to know it and we have a relationship (me and the didge). It’s just begun! To life!
Dave, Whitehorse, Yukon, Canada
Honestly I can’t stop playing this didgeridoo! It is just fascinating all of the subtle differences in didgeridoos and this one is just a pleasure to play, it takes so little force and yet it is open to so much exploration, and the tone is divine! It’s much easier for me to maintain good even pressure through the different vocal sounds I’ve struggled with as well… I’m really loving it…. So much fun trying new voices and rhythms through this. Annnnnd it is really really beautiful…came packed impeccably, thanks….now I’m afraid I may need a shorter straighter piece for travel
Darryl, Draper, UT
Thanks for checking in. The didgeridoo is beautiful, it’s unlike any other I’ve seen before. The craftsmanship is really remarkable, including the turquoise inlays and the precisely shaped wooden mouthpiece. Although the didgeridoo is taller than me, it is still remarkably light and agile. There are so many timbral possibilities, from the powerful low bass tone up into overtones that can clearly be articulated five octaves above the fundamental. It’s an instrument I will treasure, and I look forward to using it in my sound journeys and musical practice.
Shawn, Highland, NY
Hey Kyle! Love the didge! It is gorgeous, and the sound is amazing. Up until now I was using a starter didge–really happy to have this. Had a lesson today with Nora using it. Nora guided me to this didge. Thanks so very much for your wonderful work.
Harry, Montague, MA
Hello Kyle!
Wow!!! The Didgeridoo “Knocked my Sox Off!!!” Absolute “Masterpiece” Been playing for the past hour! It’s “Drone Voice” is everything I ever wanted in a Didgeridoo! Absolutely incredible to engage with!!! I am so incredibly thrilled!!! Thank you so much my friend!!! Hope you’re doing great today!!! Take care! Louis
Louis, Narberth, PA
I’ve had my Desert Mountain didgeridoo for over a decade and it still blows me away every time I play it. Such and incredible instrument both in the music it creates and in the conversation it sparks. It has been the catalyst for so many great interactions, and it’s really cool to see a documentation and the craftsman behind it. Thanks Kyle, #17 is still as fantastic as the day I played if for the first time.
Taylor, Canada
I’m a happy camper (without actually camping) with these two amazing agave didges! My first didge as in yucca, and later when I got a Eucalyptus I felt like that’s it, so much better than yucca…and for a long time I thought agave would be similar to yucca but it’s actually very different. Agave has much more gravity and density and a nice warm feeling. Again, I really love the mouthpiece, it’s simply perfect! And the real wood feeling of it without epoxy. It’s the fastest playing didge in my collection now (ha, this is the reason why it arrived fast too!) Very responsive to pressure changes and wobbles. It will definitely sing many spring songs! I so much appreciate your beautiful work Kyle- Thank you!!!
Nora, Newburgh, NY
Kyle! I am absolutely loving this new didge. Visually it is truly stunning to behold, a rugged and beautiful balance between raw nature and your human touch. I love the patterns in the wood and the dotted turquoise accents that dot the flowing grain. Physically I was thrilled to discover that it is surprisingly lightweight for something so big. I am able to easily lift and move around with it. I’m impressed with the mouthpiece. As someone who is usually partial to beeswax I find it easy to get a comfortable seal when playing into this wooden mouthpiece that you have crafted. The vocals are incredibly resonant, playing around with singing different pitches sounds like exploring the depths of the cosmos. I immediately understood that it is a real spell caster and portal opener. I felt naturally high in the best of ways after my first session. I can tell that my relationship with this instrument holds many breakthroughs in my playing and I am excited to discover them as the future unfolds. Thank you so much and I’m sure this won’t be my last.
Zach, Los Angeles, CA
OMG!!! OMG!!! OMG!!! I just got her!!!
Thressa, New Bern, NC
Thank you so much! She is GORGEOUS! And she sounds incredible even under the influence of my newbie drone. My husband was blown away–he said: Now THAT sounds like you’re playing a didge! I knew she’d be pretty but still I was awestruck as the bubble wrap came off. Really, Kyle, thank you, thank you, thank, from the bottom to the top of my heart. I know what I’m doing the rest of the weekend!
Thanks for checking in Kyle. It is here and is way more than I expected. It sounds amazing and is very dynamic. Thank you so much!!
Gabe, Livingston, MT
Okay where to begin…first off…this didge is a work of art! I am so privileged to own it! The attention and detail you’ve put into it and color and craftsmanship far exceeds my expectations! It’s just stunning to look at!! What an amazing job you’ve done to it! Then there’s the playing aspect of it, simply superb back pressure and such a joy to play…it just sings with every breath!! Wow! I am now spoiled forever and nothing else will compare to this didge.
Vincent, Cumming , GA
Hey Kyle- want to let you know I received it on Friday and I absolutely love it. It’s a work of art, beautiful piece with beautiful sound. Thank you so much for the quick turnaround and incredible instrument.
Anderson, Sonoma, CA
I am enjoying my didgeridoo so much! I played it at my sound bath last night and it was great.Thank you so much! It is truly a piece of art!
Pharann, Bowling Green, KY
Kyle,We received the didge yesterday and have been having great fun learning how to play. It has a really great sound even in our inexperienced hands.
Roy, The Woodlands, TX
Sorry for taking forever to respond, in my defense that thing is so much fun that any free time I have I spend playing lol. I’ve connected so much with it and my boy loves it as well! I’ll have to take a video to show you. I’m trying to work on the circular breathing as I’m finding that being the biggest thing keeping from learning a bit more advanced techniques! Couldn’t thank you enough for how much you put into this. I’ll be keeping my eye open for a smaller one for my son!
Zach, South Jordan, UT
Kyle,All I can say is wow! This didge is absolutely beautiful!! The sound is incredible!! Thank you so much!!!
Michael, San Diego, CA
I am rather speechless to explain the manifold manifestations that my new didge has begun in my life! Just got back this afternoon from a trip meeting and connecting with more community, enjoyed a Jewish Seder and fantastic collaborative feast last night along with a dynamic dance party with instruments accompanied in and your didge wowed everyone and inspired each of us to keep to our practices followed by a morning of sweet fellowshipping in Yoga, breakfast and continued creative conversations! Wish you were here my friend! So, to answer your question, I am giving thanks and praises for my new didgeridoo! Got lots of sounds coming and am letting the circular breathing manifest itself! Thank you again! Blessings!
Jason, Farmington, ME
Brother…..this didgeridoo is…exquisite. I’m blown away. I have such a long way to go, but this is going to level me up for sure. Kinda like a new driver buying a Ferrari. I have no choice but to become a badass driver. Thank you again for such an amazing instruement. Please please please hit me up if your ever pass through LA. You deserve a legit hug my brother.
Tony, Los Angeles, CA
Hi Kyle!! I received the didgeridoo today and I am so thrilled!!! It is so beautiful and you’re right about the great backpressure!! I am just loving this. It is truly a beautiful instrument, with such beautiful tone and response and the inlays are just astounding too. Thank you so much for your incredible work….I will love and treasure this forever!! Keep up your great work! Thank you from a very happy customer
Stacy, Corona, CA
It’s here! It’s so awesome! I can’t believe how great this thing sounds! thank you for everything you do! It sounds absolutely otherworldly! It literally vibrates my brain while I’m playing it! I can’t put it down lol
Simon, Fairview, NC
Hi Kyle, It was great meeting you this afternoon when I picked up the didge. It’s the most responsive and easiest didge to play! I absolutely love it. It’s magical! Thanks so much; I’ve been playing it all evening since I got home! Take care
Doug
Kyle, Hi, the most beautiful didge just came home today! Thank you so much for your amazing skills and artistry that created this wonderful instrument…it is truly a work of art. And, it sounds so richly responsive to the breath…what a joy it is to play! The light weight is a bonus for me too. Thanks again
Eldy
Hey Kyle, I’d like to say again that I’m very glad to have found your art and to have met you in person. It’s always great to meet face-to-face the artist behind sublime works of art. #362 is a dream. As I have said before, it is a work of art in and of itself. And it’s absolutely a joy to play. I am quite surprised, being new to the art of didgeridoo playing, how I am able to produce a quite successful drone, with tongue articulations to boot! Also, I’ve surprised myself by the speed at which I’m getting the hang of the “circular breathing” technique. (As one didge player on youtube said, “It’s all about keeping the pressure going.” Wise advice, that.) I foresee years of enjoyment with #362. P.S. I foresee another of your creations in my future as well!
Jude
Hi Kyle, I love, love, love my new didgeridoo!! I am so grateful that you make them, she is such a work of art and sounds amazing! I have been on your site for over a year waiting for the right sound and as soon as I heard her, I knew she was the one. Many blessings Kyle, you are a true artist! Peace&light.
Clover
Kyle – I received the piece this morning and just now I had the opportunity to step away from my desk to try it out. First of all, it’s goooorgeous. I love the lengthier mouthpiece that you chose for it – not only is it stunning but the quality of the drone is just what the doctor ordered! This one in particular really hit the heart-centre in me. I’m still vibrating – there is so much medicine in these instruments. I am looking forward to growing with these two pieces and continuing to expand my collection and supporting you by checking out your upcoming pieces. I’m feeling immense gratitude for the work that you do – I hope you know just how special the two pieces you have sent me are to me. With deep appreciation…
Rodolfo, San Rafael, CA
Hey i got my didge in, im at a loss of words for how awesome this is! It is truly a masterpiece, i can see the heart and soul you put in to create this. It feels so right playing and the rumble felt in the body is soothing. Im so glad i found someone who truly finds there work more than work but as art and embodying the spirit of the instrument. Also, thanks for the note aswell it means alot to me. One day ima come back for one in A#! Thanks again kyle!
Joshua, Sierra Vista
We received our new didgeridoos today (very fast shipping – as with our first order), and I’ve been playing the big C# ever since. I’m very happy with it and after my first order, I’m not at all surprised that it’s every bit as awesome as I hoped it would be. It’s so responsive and sharp. It will probably become my favorite, but I expect it will be no time before my wife claims it for herself as she’s done with most of the nice didgeridoos I’ve bought before…We appreciate dealing with you, and I’m sure you’ll hear from us again – though it may be a while before we’re ready to expand our collection further. Thank you.
Owen, APO, AE, USA, Germany
I’m playing her right now. I absolutely love it. It’s a beautiful piece of functional art & I know its going to bring me much joy and relaxation. Thanks again so much for your impeccable craftsmanship and kindness.
James, Miami, FL
It is here in beautiful form!!! Ed has it humming already and is in awe. Thank you so much for sharing your art!
Michelle and Ed
Hey Kyle! We Love it! This didgeridoo is so beautiful. She is just as stunning as her three cousins here with us and just as delightfully unique. We love each and every one of them and are so excited that she is now a part of our didge family. The first time we listened to the sample, we felt her song with our souls. The sensations felt while playing were transcendental. Kyle, we truly feel the soul you put into your craftsmanship. You have immortalized their spirits, allowing them to express themselves in a co-creative bond as we play. Thank you again for the the impeccable packaging, the speedy shipping, sharing your artistic passion, and being your awesome self. Your friends in New York,
Kristen and Christian
Hey Kyle, I received my Didge yesterday. Way exceeds my expectations! This thing is beautiful and sounds lovely.this is my first real didge, so I’m very excited to get to know her! You have a customer for sure! Thank you so much! You are a master craftsman! I’m very glad I found you. Nice work on the website 🙂 I’ll be back.
Colten, Colorado Springs, CO
Yoooo Kyle, the didge rocks my world. Seriously everything I was hoping for. Earth shaking, sonically versatile, easy to play, love it.
Rek, Dallas, TX
I have been enjoying a good time with 291, now called Blacksnake. It goes Low and can get super-quiet throughout its amazing range from bottom chakra through ultra high overtones. Its super-immediate back pressure and light weight allows for great ease of playing & flexibility of tonal movement. Big Thanks for creating your wonderful array of individual instruments. Getting to know them has changed my life.
Jeff Schlanger, New Rochelle, NY( owner of 8 Desert Mountain Didges!)
The didge arrived today. Wow!! What a beautiful instrument. It is gorgeous to look at and magic to play. I will need to spend some time with it to get used to it, particularly to smooth out my circular breathing. I will treasure it. Thanks so much for your wonderful craftsmanship.
Cliff, Davis, CA
Received my shipment. I can’t say enough how impressed I am with the craftsmanship and beauty of this instrument. Very few of my internet purchases exceed my expectations but yours certainly did. Wish I was a good enough player to comment on the sound but at this point all I can say is I love the drone tone. The only downside is my wife thinks it’s too pretty for me to use and she just wants to display it on the wall!
Andy, Boise, ID
Hi Kyle, just wanted to let you know my didge arrived today and it’s absolutely beautiful! The pictures on your website don’t come close to showing its beauty. Thank you so much for creating this beautiful piece of art that will be used as a healing instrument. Much gratitude!
Terry, New Lowell, ON, Canada
So after a 1/2 an hour cleaning packing peanuts up off my garage floor (lol…appreciate your dedication to safe and secure packaging) I unwrapped my new buddy. Kyle you are amazing…it is beautiful!!!! The combination of the natural beauty of the ‘wood’ combined with your artisanship makes for an awesome final piece. And it plays amazing…you were so right – that tone just goes straight to your soul.
Sue, Rochester, MI
Hi Kyle, I just got the didge a few hours again and have been practicing with my Paiste gong and my B Celtic RAV. The didge is awesome!!! It is so beautiful and a work of art!! This is my first low didgeridoo and I love the key of B. It will be a lot of fun getting to bond with this right away. I plan on recording with it and will send you a sample soon. Thanks for everything and I will definitely be getting another didge from you.
Julia, Washingtonville, NY
I absolutely love it. Thank you so much for being so good about wrapping up the instrument to make sure it would not suffer any damage during it’s transportation. I really appreciate the amount of care and attention that you put into packaging the didge safely. It’s funny, I knew I would love the didge even before I unboxed it just based on the care that you put into packaging it. And I was absolutely correct. The didge is nothing short of harmonious mixture of beautiful and mighty. I am honestly still in awe of the piece. You’re truly an artist. I was able to play with it for a little while earlier today and I am already in love with the quality of the drone and the feel of the instrument on my mouth. It’s perfect! I will continue to monitor your website to check out your latest pieces. 10/10. Highly Satisfied! Thank you so, so much! The didge is already bringing me so much joy! Wishing you continued success in all your endeavors,
Rodolfo
It’s now about a month since I got my didge from you. I just want to say how wonderful it is to purchase something that exceeds all expectations. This is truly an amazing instrument! Every time I play it, I discover new tonal variations. It is so responsive that even the most subtle changes in my playing produces another layer of expression. I doubt that I will ever find the limits of this wonderful stalk! That being said, I’m sure another creation from Desert Mountain Didgeridoos will soon find it’s way into my collection. They are way too much fun to own only one! Thanks so much!
Tony, Pagosa Springs, CO
Working with Kyle at Desert Mountain Didgeridoos has been an absolute pleasure! He is a true craftsman, in every sense possible, and his extremely friendly, thorough and punctual communications have made the entire experience of shopping at Desert Mountain Didgeridoos a dream come true. I can’t possibly summarize the sheer beauty of my breathtaking 74″ Agave Didge in B – what I can say is that to me it’s a priceless work of art which my family and I will always cherish. I’m deeply grateful to have had the opportunity to buy a didge from Kyle and it’s a genuine honor to own one of his timeless masterpieces!
Ivo, Minneapolis, MN
The pictures on your website don’t do your work justice Kyle! It is an incredible addition to my home in so many ways–it is a work of art whether you are using it creatively as an instrument, or as a decoration. The quality of craftsmanship and attention to detail paid in creating the didgeridoo is immediately obvious. The varied-wood mouthpiece is seamlessly placed on the end of the instrument, and is easeful and comfortable to play on. The natural grain of the agave really pops out, and seriously adds character to both the instrument and the room it is placed in! In addition to the actual instrument you’re buying, the customer service is excellent. I called Kyle and he answered all my questions, and was able to narrow my selection of 3 or so didges down to one. All in all an excellent experience dealing with Kyle and Desert Mountain Didges, not sure how it could have been better. Cheers, thanks again!
James
Kyle, this is the most amazing Didgeridoo I have ever played. It plays quiet, it plays loud, and the back pressure is perfect. The first day I had it, I was able to play at a higher level than I ever have, and I play a lot. Voice and trumpets are crisp and clean. Thank you!
Chris, Moab, UT
I just received my sweet little didge and she is INCREDIBLE! I love it! Your craftsmanship is so beautiful from choosing the “wood”, to crafting the mouthpiece and the flawless varnish. Not only is she drop dead gorgeous but so light and easy to play! I love the tone…even with my beginner skills! I can see the potential that we have together. Thank you for all the care you took in wrapping Little Didge and for shipping so quickly. I am so excited to learn this incredible earthy instrument. Please know that you have a VERY happy customer! With so much thanks!
Anne-Marie, North Bend, WA
Yes! The didge arrived safe and “sound”. This is #11 of my didge collection (including 2 homemade PVC) and it is immediately apparent that this is my one and only FAV …and will always be my favorite! I am dumbstruck by how light it is, and of course, beautiful beyond words. When it is not being played, I will be displaying it proudly in my living room to enjoy even at rest. The fact that it is completely finished on the inside is ideal for me because I like to keep my didge clean. For its size, it does have great back pressure and plays quite easily. The sounds, tones, toots, and range I get from it are everything I wanted – everything. (My partner – she loves it too.) I wholeheartedly agree with other customers of your didges… Wow! Just Wow! Another truly satisfied customer.
Stephen, Olympia, WA
Hey Kyle, I got my didgeridoo today and all I can say is wow! The pictures don’t do it justice and it blows my eucalyptus Didge out of the water! Everything sounds amazing out of it and circular breathing is even easier! It’s like it wants to be played! Thanks for such an amazing instrument! I don’t think I’ll go anywhere else for another didgeridoo!
Derek, Colorado Springs, CO
Just wanted to leave a little feedback on my recent purchase of a very fine D# agave didgeridoo (#125). Just visually it is a piece of art standing on its own, with such a unique shape and turquoise embedded throughout. You are a true craftsman and artist. The fundamental tone is most harmonic with my own inner vibration, and it is very easy to play and sensitive to mouth, tongue and breath manipulation. I love how it is so responsive to rhythms, from a wobble to ambient and meditative. The sound is brilliant and clear and the large bell amplifies the unique beehive chamber just before it. Summary: I love it and it will remain a favorite.
Anonymous
Thanks for the quick and well protected shipping. I received the didj this afternoon in perfect condition. It is everything and more as you described. Beautiful craftsmanship, spectacular visuals and best of all, one of the most powerful didjs I have ever played or heard. I only played it for about an hour, and I am continuing to forge a relationship with this instrument. Big bore bass is Goldilocks just right, powerful but not overpowering the fundamental key which dances within the drone. I love it and will give you more details at a later date. Thanks again for offering this instrument to me – it is exactly what I wanted.
Gordon, Oceanside, CA
I have been playing with the new didge since I got it and It is so sweet I can’t stop playing it . It is Awesome and I don’t use that word lightly . Let me start with how it looks, well you could hang it on the wall and look at it as the finish and inlaid turquoise set it off so that whatever angle you look at it you see something different and each one is unique. It’s so east to play and as far as circular breathing goes it feels like it wants to play on its own, I am fairly new to playing and compared to my termite eaten eucalyptus I just don’t run out of air . To compare the two I would say it’s fast ! I ride motorcycles and it’s like getting off a Harley cruiser and jumping on a fast Jap sports bike , feels like it could be made of carbon fibre it weighs so little – it can be played fast or slow but it encourages you to up the tempo and crank some volume out . when you stop playing the back pressure can be felt with the hot air pushing back on your face from the mouth piece . I like it a lot! it’s my Race didge! I can see it’s going to get a lot of use! Thanks for taking the time to listen to what I thought I wanted and building me an Awesome didge , I am sure I will be in contact with you again when I want another didge.
Brian, Poole, UK
Duuuuude! The didge came today and all I can say is WOW. Absolutely in love with it and the way it plays. And the sound is unbelievable. Thank you so much man!
James, Acton, MA
I have been buying didgeridoos for several years now from many different vendors. I cannot say enough about the pure joy Kyle’s craftsmanship has brought to my journey playing the instrument. Let’s be honest. Buying an “expensive” didge is a risk and gamble over the internet. I can assure you that you will be pleasantly surprised, and taken back with the detail and sound quality Kyle forges into his instruments. I am proud of the many compliments I receive while playing his didgeridoos. “Beautiful” is a word that I hear often and I’m here to testify they are just that. These days, the business is looking to make a quick dollar and you will be hard pressed to find anyone that does work for the love of it anymore. Kyle’s down to earth approach to this, is enhanced with an old fashioned work ethic that answers this concern. His genuine passion and love for the didgeridoo reflects in His knowledge of how the instrument should sound as he shapes it with a master’s touch. From the novice, to the most advanced player, there is something here for everyone to experience, discover, and most of all enjoy. In the end, you can be confident that your purchase from Desert Mountain Didgeridoos will exceed the most critical expectations. Kyle’s sticks are my weapon of choice when sound quality matters and I need to count on a distinguished look that is consistent and dependable. I have no doubt that you will feel the same – and like me, you will be saving your dollars for the next one for your personal collection. Thanks for everything Kyle.
Todd, Ooltewah, TN
I am so motivated to tell every Didge Player, whether beginner or advanced, of my experience with the very excellent Didges that are coming out of Desert Mountain Didgeridoo! The tone, resonance, playability, workmanship, beauty, light weight, & value are fantastic! I just ordered my 3rd Didge from Kyle and couldn’t be happier. This is the “Didge Candy Store”. I have a “top of the line” Aboriginal Eucalyptus Didge from Australia that I dearly appreciate, but I play one of Kyle’s Agave Didges 85% of the time. What more can I say here except check it out for yourself! Thanks to you Kyle!
Gary Little Rock, AR
Kyle!!!! This thing is so fucking amazing I am so blown away! Thank you so much man!
Dean, Bozeman, MT
Hey Kyle, The didge arrived today and I must say the spirit of this agave just fills the room with it’s resonance. Looks and sounds beautiful and it is more than what I anticipated. Thank you so much for your service and appreciate the packaging for the long journey. All the best mate!
Ari, New South Whales, Australia
Kyle…I got home last night and the Didge was here. I opened it and it has quite the “WOW” factor! It is a very impressive instrument! I can see it is apparent the high quality and careful craftsmanship that went into it. You make a super nice Didge! I played it and it sounded awesome! Even a rookie like myself was able to get a clear drone. It’s resonance and growl are fantastic. Thank you very much for suggesting this one…I really love it already and I only just got it. I can’t wait to be able to play better. Thanks again Kyle, your patience and assistance in getting it here were very helpful. Great Customer service! Take care.

I’m just now getting acquainted with the new, beautifully crafted didge and am very, very pleased with it. As a beginner, I find it remarkably easy to get a good, solid drone with nice overtones and I notice a smooth, mellow quality about the sound that especially appeals to me. The curved shape and lovely finish of the agave are wonderful too! I very much appreciate your help with choosing this particular didge — It suits me perfectly and I’m sure I will be enjoying the it for a long time to come. Thanks too for your careful attention to packing and the fast delivery time!

I’m blown away and speechless. One word: Art. As great as your web site is, the picture did not do this didge justice. It is awesome to just look at. The finish is amazing. And it’s bigger (in a good way) than I expected, especially that nice bell. All of the character in the wood – the cracks and grain – priceless. It looks like it has stories to tell….I couldn’t be happier.

Just wanted to let you know that I’m having a “BLAST” with that Didje I purchased from you. It is so beautiful and the sound just keeps getting better and better… I am in trouble now…what am I going to do with my Australian and other Didjes?..: ) Looks like they will be collecting dust.

I’m fortunate enough to have had the pleasure of meeting Kyle in person and to have sampled most of his current inventory of astounding didges. All of them were unique instruments with a wonderful sound and all were crafted to perfection. I honestly could not choose the best one and so I had to buy two! And I would have bought more if I had more money; heck, I wanted them all! I don’t think you could make a bad choice on any of Kyle’s didges. It’s obvious that Kyle invests much of himself in creating his instruments and he cares deeply that they find a good home and that their owners are pleased. I have several aboriginal didges, including some by Djalu himself, and Kyle’s agave didges can proudly stand out among instruments crafted by the masters.

Hey kyle, thanks again for the quick delivery to Georgia. It arrived Monday morning. I would’ve responded sooner but i couldn’t stop playing… The new didge is awesome, it takes me to another place every time. The mouth piece is perfect. You really are creating excellent quality instruments. And the picture you sent is really cool as well. Till next time, take care and safe journeys. Peace.

I received my didge last night, and it is amazing! It is so beautiful and sounds awesome. I cannot stop playing it! I could not be happier with it. Thank you so much for everything, and I am sure I will be purchasing more didgeridoos from you in the future. Thanks again.

Hey Kyle! The didge just got here about an hour ago, and the only reason I didn’t email you immediately is because I was having way too much fun playing it! It looks and sounds so absolutely amazing! And I couldn’t believe how lightweight it is! My eucalyptus didge is tiny, about half the size, and weighs WAY more! The turquoise inlay is such a great touch, I cant say enough good things about it! It takes so little air, is so quick, and the toots and overtones come so easily! Thank you so much, I will certainly be buying more didges from you in the future!

I want to let you know that the agave didg. I bought from you is my favorite of the ones that I have. I play each of them every day. I always gravitate back to the agave since it clearly has the finest tone and resonance. I particularly like the big bell volume I can get from it.
Dave, Wasilla, AK
I got the didge today man, it is so sick it’s unreal. Thank you so much for all your time and help finding this!! This thing is amazing I love it like a child! Thanks again man! Peace.
Lan, Bozeman, MT
I have some really easy, strong players but this one you just sent me plays better and easier than any of the ones I have! LOVE IT! THANK YOU!
Kenny, Sherman Oaks, CA
Bro… this didge is monstrous. I love this thing! they or at least this one doesn’t need much air at all… I learned that quickly. It is so resonant! What a blast… the mouthpiece is sick… termite hole fills… sick… the color of the agave… beautiful. My first Real Didge.
Rendawg, Miami, Fl
Just got the didgeridoo and it is phenomenal. It sounds awesome and looks fantastic. It is easier to play than my previous bamboo didge and takes less air. Thanks again for all your help and I’ll let ya know when I plan to add another to my collection.
Curtis, College Station, TX
Just bought this(#48) from Kyle! Wow what a work of Art! Thanks Kyle for all your hard work on the didge. The Tone is very Deep and made very well. I recommend everyone buy a Didge from Kyle. I will be buying more that is for sure.
Chris, Littleton, CO
The didj arrived this morning in great shape….AMAZING! already got the circular breath going…..really love it thanks!
Derek, Boston, MA
Hi Kyle, The didgeridoo # 52 arrived in good shape today. Thanks again for the break on shipping to Alaska. I love the awesome look and feel of this one, it’s got extraordinary character. (didge #41) I was totally blown away by the precise clarity. Then when I was pushing it to see the range it has is awesome, but then I pushed it harder or something because it like went into this overdrive with an explosive resonance. Thanks for the great Didgeridoo I am very happy with it.
