To me, genuine means it was crafted according to the ways that they have always been crafted: hollowed out by termites, sanded and hand painted. |
Authentic and genuine are synonymous to me. If something is genuine, it should rightfully so be authentic, but even if it meets the above criterion, it should also be done by an Aboriginal Australian. |
There also seems to be a fine line between traditional and authentic. I think traditional and authentic are the exact same. Crafted by the ways they have always been. |
An aboriginal didgeridoo is all the above. |

A genuine didgeridoo is a hardwood, termite eaten wood that is polished or painted or not. It is not bamboo, teak or other non hardwood materials. the most dangerous being the PVC which traps moisture and will lead to dangerous fungal types for the breather-in. |
Authentic means that it is treated as a didge has been treated in the past, using techniques to secure its authenticity of its naturalness. Authentic also refers to the paint and the way in which the spirit of the player is depicted, either in animal or dots or other form of symbol. |
Traditional didgeridoo is a ceremonial didge used in elder ceremonies for the tribes and other ceremonies that are secret or in invitation to others not the clan- family using the clapsticks, story rhythms and other songs. |
Aboriginal didgeridoo may refer to the type of yidaki, didge, mago that may also use clapsticks and other storytelling. It refers to the whole make, play, paint and use of the didge by a people which is ancient. |

I don't like the word genuine because 99% of the time its a genuine rip off, or a 'bali special' |
It is only authentic when I see an official label with a name or a photo of the aborigine that crafted it, or at the very least the shop it came from that supports aboriginal issues. |
Traditional...hmm....well is there such thing as a traditional car?yes! a traditional house?yes or a traditional village? yes! a traditional didj? no, why.....well let me explain, cars have changed since they were first invented,same as houses,villages turned to citys....the didj...well that's stayed the same for 35000+ years so you can't get a traditional didj unless its had a model change....if that makes sense!!! |
I have found that there are various tribes and cultures that have "didjes" around the world but not all of them are termite formed and painted and crafted the way an aborigine would. eg the rubbish china kick out is machine formed,bali wreck bamboo forests and churn out fakies with crap artwork,where as an aboriginal didj would have all the signs of age care skill and perfection no matter how big or small how old a didj is. |

It can be any didj that functions, as "genuine" simply refers to an object's fundamental character pertaining to its name's implied attributes. |
A didj that is crafted by a qualified aboriginal artist, one who has had training, and understands the instrument's importance for not only the ears but also the mind. It should also be constructed using traditional materials such as eucalyptus hollowed by termites. |
A didj that is constructed in a plain and straightforward manner; one that is simply a 5-6 foot piece of eucalyptus with a flared bell. |
A didj that is constructed in the manner of Aboriginal craftsmanship; it does not have to necessarily be an authentic didgeridoo. |

I believe a product labeled "Genuine" should be an original article. It should not be a reproduction, or a fake/knock off. |
Authentic items can be reproductions or "fake/knock offs", however, they must be labeled as such, and be as close of a reproduction to a "genuine" article as possible. Materials use, and artwork presented should be exactly what a "genuine" article would have. |
I believe that any representation of a genuine item, can be called traditional, as long as the object clearly represented said item. A plastic toy didgeridoo could honestly be called "traditional", since the concept of the didgeridoo is in fact a historical tradition among aboriginal peoples. You could pick up the empty cardboard tube from a wrapping paper roll, and use it as a didgeridoo. It would not be a "Genuine", or "Authentic' didgeridoo, but as long as you used the cardboard tube as you would a genuine or authentic didgeridoo, you would in fact be carrying on a tradition, regardless of the object itself. |
This seems like a vague question to me. I suppose any form of didgeridoo, be it a genuine historical item, an authentic representation of an item, or a simple cardboard tube used as such, would still in fact be a didgeridoo. That being said, since the didgeridoo is an instrument specific to the aboriginal culture, anything used as such, could, in my opinion, be honestly labeled an "Aboriginal" Didgeridoo. In short, any of the above labels could be added to the description of "Aboriginal Didgeridoo", and not change the meaning. |

'Genuine didgeridoo' can be anything, depending on the circumstances. My old PVC-didj can be thought to be just as genuine as an Aboriginal handmade piece of art, in an appropriate context of course. So, it doesn't matter really; 'genuine' is too broad a word to describe anything very accurately. |
What was said on 'genuine' applies here as well. |
An instrument is traditional if there's a tradition -- a pattern of some sort typical cultural aspect going back in time for an appropriate length -- of which it can thought to be part of. I guess we are usually referring to some Aboriginal tradition, but again, this could be anything. |
I'd say Aboriginal didgeridoo is a didgeridoo made within the corresponding tradition. It doesn't necessarily have to be made by an Aboriginal, or in Australia; it is enough if there's a clear linkage to an Aboriginal tradition. Other meaning could be just a didj made by anyone who can be thought to be Aboriginal. But that's a bit shallow term, just like 'Swedish didj' or 'German didj' would be. |
