Superb Tablas
the tablas arrived quickly through canada post to Hawaii and in perfect condition. the engraved bayan is superbly finished and the sound quality is excellent; pure deep sound without any discolouration or errant harmonics. the dayan came tuned very low in B flat ( according to my tuner ), which i believe was purposeful although the head markings stated C. notwithstanding i tuned it up and it sounded incredible with no buzz and clear bell-like tone. the Somnath workmanship hype is certainly justified. will be ordering again from your company again in the future and will recommend you to musician colleagues.

Almost PERFECT!
Dear Anil, The tabla set arrived with some delay due to the paperwork in Mexico. Everything else, great, is an excellent tabla. Sounds great but the bayan has a small vibration that seems to go away with tuning to a lower pitch. If I need something else buy it with you, thank you very much for your excellent service
