Djembe / Dunun Drum Rehead Repair
Rehead your djembe with goat or cow skin:
- Replace skin (shaved unless a hairy goat is requested!)
- Wrap rings (optional) and replace cradle knots
- Assess and reshape bearing edge
- Condition the drum shell
- Rope Handle
There are three options for the skin after it’s on the drum:
trimmed edges, Sou Sou braid and skin over. The skin over and Sou Sou braid are not available with the cow skin.
For information about djembe woods
see “Djembe Buying Guide” from drumsticktony.com
A tune up and assessment is $15.00, with the understanding that the most vulnerable time for a djembe skin is when it is being tuned and stretched. If, during the assessment, the djembe/dunun skin splits and you want it repaired, the $15.00 will be applied to cost of the rehead.
