Djembe mounting and repairing - Ropes and very very thick shaved castrated billygoat skin for djembe
This djembe mounting and repair kit contains:
- 1 very very thick shaved Sahel castrated billygoat skin (width : from 60 to 75 cm, length : from 65 to 90 cm, thickness : from 1,5 to 1,8 mm)
- 10 m of Ø4 mm prestretched polyester rope (black)
- 20 m of Ø5 mm prestretched polyester rope (black)
We advise using a castrated billygoat skin to percussionists who are looking for a very warm sound, with almost no harmonics.
It is equally important to choose a thick shell, with a high quality dry wood to mount this type of replacement skin for djembe or drum head. Indeed, the risk of deformation is higher when using very very thick goat skins or cowhides.
Overall product rating : 4.7 / 5
