Fusing the past with the present, this brass tabla set was designed with the professional musician in mind. The luminous bayan is constructed from nickel-plated brass, resulting in durability and unparalleled tone depth. Craftsmen favor brass for performance grade instruments for its superior ability to project bass tones. The dayan is made from high-grade sheesham wood, ensuring a sharp resonance and the kind of sound you won't find anywhere else. The dazzling silver surface adds a unique energy to the set and undeniably catches the eye of the audience. Perfect for studio recording and live gigs, this tabla pair is ideal for those who prefer not to continuously tune their dayan while playing. The nuts and bolts give you a consistent performance since they do not loosen as easily as leather straps. The nuts and bolts also make it easy to replace the heads, requiring you to tighten and tune as needed. Both tabla heads are installed with precision and tested by the our manufacturer to ensure a consistent response and performance. The tabla set comes standard with nine gattas (wooden dowels) on the dayan, four gattas on the bayan, two support cushions and cloth covers, a precision tuning hammer, and a protective carry bag.
