A drum includes a rigid, hollow body disposed about an axis and having first and second opposing opened ends of generally circular form. The body has an inner surface and an outer surface with the outer surface being of convoluted form defined by a plurality of channels formed in the body. The channels extend in a direction of the axis. A drum head membrane covers each of the first and second ends. A ring is mounted on each of the first and second ends so as to secure each drum head membrane to the body. Each ring includes a tensioning member receiving structure. A plurality of tensioning members are provided with a tensioning member being received in an associated channel and a first end of each tensioning member being received by the tensioning member receiving structure of each ring. The tensioning members are constructed and arranged to be moved with respect to the body to adjust tension of the drum head membranes.
