NEW; Due to back problems, I am unable to continue reheading and repulling tablas. However, I have decided to share my knowledge in a new series of lessons. I can now teach you to put your own tabla heads on. You will do the work yourself but under my guidance. You will learn everything necessary to do this job yourself. The price is €50 excluding VAT/BTW and any accessories needed. I also have plans to make a video series on the aspects of tabla maintenance.
