Just made this #tabla for a musician in #Newcastle who shipped the shell over to me the other day, the shell has amazing craftsmanship and such balance, made by #muktadas and I’ve used a #Bashiruddin skin on there with double braiding and has a nice n equal build to it. I gave him some new straps on this as it makes the world of a difference! Made for C to C# and will pull it slowly day by day to reach there. Really happy with the tonal quality of this one and the syahi work on this is exceptional. #tablarepairuk #tablarepairnewcastle #newcastletabla #tablarepairsuk #saaztablaschool

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.

Demos of #newtabla that that I’ve got coming from #kolkata these are the finest examples of tabla you’ll see! Pure tonal quality, crisp on mic and an absolute pleasure to play on. I’ll post a few more pix and videos when my stock arrives 🙂 #calcuttatabla #kolkatatabla #buytablauk #saaztablaschool

Pro Pune Skins

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.

Sometimes you just need time for making your own #tabla ! This #dayan is an old 6” original Ruby shell which I’ve had for many years passed down from my uncle and the skin on that was amazing and lasted such a long time for endless riaz and performances. This one I’ve made on scale A to A# quite a meditative scale to play on I feel. Finest skin from Pune and it will open up once I slowly pull it over the next few weeks and really play it in. Is that the time???? #tablarepairleicester #saaztablaschool #tablarepairsuk #tablarepairuk

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
