20" Hairless Goatskin Rounds from Pakistan
These natural goatskin rounds are $19.00 each. Our new stock are processed using black salt and we no longer carry hides processed with dehydrated lyme. The Thinner ones are great for Banjos and Dumbeks, etc. The Medium thick ones work well for smaller Djembes, Dumbeks, Talking Drums, etc. Not recommended for regular size djembes (over 12" heads). Please let us know what these goatskins are being used for. It will help us determine the best thickness for your project.
** New supplier ** No dehydrated Lyme used, black salt cured. Only available in 20" rounds
Note: Many of these rounds have translucent areas, this is normal, once the skins are soaked and stretched these areas are just as white as the rest of the skin.
Djembe Heads from South America - Cowhide
Limited supply of South American Kip (yearling calf skins)
These skins are now on a call to order basis, those of you who have used them with great results already, please feel free to either email your order or give us a call. Apparently these yearling skins can't take being tightened rope breaking tight wet like the cow belly can, and several folks have found out they don't take that kind of tension while wet. We are comparing notes currently to see if this is the only issue, so until we have definitive answers we can not guarantee these hides for this reason.
