I have never seen a left-handed, playing darbuka. Do they exist?)) Personally, I am left handed ..

[Chaswhitaker]

@sanekvladhome Yes there are many many left handed players.

that was awesome man, i was wondering genereal question about dumbeks, darbukas or derbeke whatever u want to call it, do they need to be "tuned" every once in a while? or do they not need to be tuned at all or only when they get messed up or you put on a new skin?

another question when do u need a new skin? and is it at all difficult to put on a new one?

sorry for all the questions but i have noone to ask, (except u and other people online)

[Chaswhitaker]

Hi Thanks for the kind comments - re your questions - plastic skins once tuned should stay tuned and do not need to be replaced unless they break or you want to try a new one. For more info. on this see my website arabicdrum.co.uk/drums_for_sal­e.htm and scroll down for the info. about skins.
