Tabla Repairs, Tabla Purchasing

Buy new tabla, repair old ones, professional tabla skins

I have great connections with the best tabla makers and have a very broad knowledge in the production of quality tabla.

Need a tabla repairing, re-skinning or stretching? No problem, those services are also available. I use the highest quality Banaras Skins. Every tabla that we sell or make is professional level. Please see my facebook page or follow me on instagram for more picture and videos.

Being a tabla player here in Leicester, I understand what the needs are and what tonal quality is needed for the tabla. All tabla’s are re-skinned and balanced to produce the best sound.

Get in touch with any queries that you may have regarding purchasing or repairing tablas.

Saaz Tabla School

Somnath Kakade Tabla

If you are looking for a softer and more melodious sound then these are used by many Ustads and masters around the world. They offer great resonance and clarity of sound. Skins from Pune are slightly thicker and very durable.

Pro Kolkata / Calcutta Skins

When it comes to tonal quality and sound experience, these skins are amongst the highest grade and durability. There are myths about certain skins from Kolkata not lasting long but we don’t stock that quality and only offer the best items.

Synthetic Tabla Straps

I have come up with a great formula of making some amazing straps for your tabla which are saving animals from being slaughtered for making straps! These are a blend of some really tough poly fibres which are ideal to hold tension, not fray when using them and also dont slip on the base or tuning pegs.

Mega excited!!! My own blend of materials to make #tablastraps has arrived! Made here in #leicester and these should hold good tension in the head. Let me know if you want some #syntheticstraps #tablarepairuk #tablarepairsuk #tablarepair #saaztablaschool
