More Details
A quick guide to choosing the right skin:
- Thinner skins tend to be more responsive. Sounds are higher and brighter and the skins are easier on the hands. Not recommended for stick drumming
- Medium skins are well balanced with warmer tones and bright slaps when cranked.
- Thicker skins are more durable and perfect for stick playing applications
These skins have their hair removed with a salt based solution – NO chemicals!
We always take extra care in choosing skins that are free from faults and will go the distance on your drum.
Please understand however that as a natural product from the wild, we can never pick up 100% of the inherent defects as they can be invisible to the naked eye. Check out our skins warranty here, and scroll down to “Skins purchased from African Drumming.
