About Disc Sizes
A Medium Disc (10-12″) is suitable for a 10-12″ djembe; the diameter of the hide itself will be slightly larger than 12″ to allow room for skinning.
A large Disc (13-15″) is suitable for a 13-15″ djembe; the diameter of the hide itself will be slightly larger than 15″ to allow room for skinning.
A quick guide to choosing the right skin
- Thinner skins tend to be more responsive. Their sounds are higher and brighter. They are easier on the hands and more suited to new players
- Medium skins are well balanced with warm tones and bright slaps
- Thick skins are very rich and warm sounding. They take longer to play in, but once settled they have a very melodic quality
