Pro-quality Bayan heads (the same good quality that we use on our Varanasi tabla sets). These heads tend to have a nice thick syahis (gob) and soft/tender chat. Good quality skins, very durable. Be certain to measure the diameter of the wooden barrel (for best results, remove the old head) and not the diameter of the entire tabla head.

    Benares Bayan head

    Posted by Damian Finegan from Salt Spring island, BC on 11th Jul 2024

    I am really impressed! My order was shipped within two hours, travelled across Canada and arrived at my door five days later. The bayan head I received is of excellent quality, fits perfectly on my drum and is flawless! It is like having a brand new bayan that sounds and feels better than the head it originally came with which was also of great quality! Thank you so much!

    this is a good head, excellent thick siyahi, i think the actual skin could be a little more robust. As usual the customer service from kalkendar is outstanding!

    Put this on an old Calcutta copper baya shell, and it sounds great. Super sustain. Very happy!

    Adequate Bayan Head

    Posted by Michael from California on 30th Aug 2015

    I wanted to order the Mumbai Professional head for a bayan, but they were out of them. I had to wet the inner ring and put my bayan on top of it with 20 pounds of weight to correct how areas of the edge had folded inward. I would rate these heads as an average quality head. It sounds pretty good and the size was perfect.
