Australian Didgeridoo Stained Malee U1

Authentic Aboriginal Didjeridoo
Stained Malee
Made in Australia

The didjeridoo is the unique and ancient instrument of the Australian aborigine.
Through its haunting, yet powerful, sounds, the didjeridu evokes reverence and oneness with nature. The deep drone of the didjeridoo allows us to relax and to reconnect with mother earth.
The spiritual and healing power of the didj has been used for thousands of years in secret ceremonies of Australian aborigines.

Didjeridoos – instruments from the earth
Genuine didjeridoos are naturally hollowed out by termites.
Termites are very light-sensitive and can only survive in a dark, slightly humid environment. In the harsh Australian outback they create these conditions for themselves.
Their colony is sealed to the outside world, even their ‘roads’ are fully enclosed, going for over fifty metres from the nest to find food. They can also dig just as deep into the ground to find water. One termites’ nest can have over one million individuals. Their closest relative is the cockroach. Termites are not related to other ants.
down it comesTermites can’t go through the living bark of the tree, they have to find access to the centre of a tree or sapling. They either follow a woodborer hole or make a tunnel all the way up the outside of a tree to find a broken branch exposing the hardwood.
Once inside the hardwood of the still alive tree, the termites eat the tree inside out.

Recognising natural didjeridoos
In the northern parts of Australia are millions of potential didjeridoos spread over thousands of square kilometres, hidden in living trees as well as in dead trees and branches.
How to find them?
Some cutters; especially non-indigenous cutters, just take a chainsaw and cut hundreds and thousands of trees to find a few hollow ones, leaving carnage behind them.
cut the log to sizeAboriginal people feel sad and resentful about that as the land and trees are sacred to them.
cut logs left for seasoningAn Aboriginal didjeridoo-maker walks for miles through the bush. Some say they can smell the termites, other can see from the shape of the tree, its leaves etc. which ones are well hollowed. In any case, they cut only hollow trees and take only a few here and there without destroying the forest.
Once they are carried to the four-wheel drive and taken home, a good didjeridoo maker allows the cut ‘sticks’ to season for a few months.

A didj is born…
a freshly cut didgeridooNow the bark is removed and the interior cleaned of the dirt the termites usually deposit in there. Then the outside is sanded and any holes are filled and sealed. Now the didge needs only a beeswax mouthpiece and is ready to play.
