Bedug

The bedug (Indonesian and Malaysian Malay: beduk; Javanese: bedhug; Sundanese: dulag) is one of the drums used in the gamelan.

The bedug is as large as or larger than the largest kendang and generally has a deeper and duller sound.

The drum has pegs holding the two identical heads in place, similar to the Japanese taiko, and its pitch is not adjustable.

The bedug is commonly used in mosques in Java among Javanese and Sundanese people to precede the adhan as a sign of the prayer[5] or during Islamic festivals.

[7] Among the Muslim Maranao people of the southern Philippines, a similar and smaller drum is used for announcing prayer times, known as the tabu or tabo.
