Thick steer skin with hair for conga drum M

We suggest using a thick cow skin or a bull skin for reskinning a conga or a drum with a quality animal skin with a thickness more than 2 mm.

Attention! Skilled practice and reskinning required! A lever and locking pliers required. Fragile hands should not attempt this!

It is equally important to choose a thick shell, with a high quality dry wood to mount this type of skin. Indeed, the risk of deformation is higher when using very thick goatskins or cowhides.
