Is this a good first tabla?

Yes. The steel bayan is lighter and easier to handle, and gives a clean bass for learning all the standard bols. The puddi and Sheesham dayan are made to the same standard as our concert sets.

What is the dayan tuned to?

C#, and every set is individually tested before packing.

How does steel compare with brass?

Steel is lighter and very durable, with a clean, clear bass. Brass gives a deeper bass with longer sustain, which is why our intermediate sets step up to it.

Steel bayan, Sheesham dayan, two velvet cushion rings, a tuning hammer and a basic gig bag.

How should I care for it on arrival?

Open the packing soon after it arrives so the drums can air and stay in tune, and keep them away from extreme heat or damp.
