There is a moratorium on the wood used in tablas. Shisham wood is now considered a part of exotic species of plants. It is now very hard to export shisham tablas out of India. Shisham is a part of Dalbergia plant species. Hence we had to move to a wood that produces as good a sound as Shisham. 

This tabla set comes with a Neem/Mahogany Bombay tabla (with good thick strap and nice durable head) and a 2 kilo brass baya. These are the best regular drums we have ever received. These are perfect for anyone beginning to play or try a tabla set. After we go through each tabla and baya these drums sound really good and in tune. Only the best ones are shipped out.

These drums could last you years with only minimal maintenance.

Included are rings, covers, tuning hammer and a padded carrying bag.

This price includes a $10 packing fee.
