It appears that Balaphone is an insturment, not a wood type.

balaphone is a wood that is from africa. i have 2 djembes made from it. it is sometimes also called "kadhi" and the lighter(in color) stuff is called blonde balaphone.

Do a Google search for "custom drums". Then proceed to ask around at all the places you find. I'm sure SOMEONE could build you one since "custom" drum builders are a dime a dozen these days.
