Learning Greek percussion

[mastichas09]

I am a percussionist (hand drumming) and usually when I jam out with other Greek musicians, I usually play the bongos.

I decided that I want to learn the traditional Greek hand drums but the problem is, I don't know what the drums are called and where I can get one. I looked online but since I don't know what I am searching for, I couldn't find anything.

Not sure I would need lessons, but it would be nice to also have access to a resource that can show me some beats, or find a local musician.

I have found some of these drums on Amazon but they seem expensive. I think you are better off finding a local Greek band and asking where they typically get their traditional percussion. Not sure I would trust an online vendor and would love to play it online.
