Fiberskyn on matadors

Postby casaet » Sat Jan 16, 2010 8:48 pm

Have tried Remo and the search function here, without finding what I am looking for. I am considering Fiberskyn on my Matadors. probably better than the pretty miserable skins they have. Does anybody know if Remo have fiberskyns that fits Matadors? Would also be nice to hear if anyone have tried fiberskyns on bongos.

Thanks for answer. Remo is somewhat confusing in giving skin sizes. But 7,15" should be 71/4", and the hembra size 85/8". Skin sizes for hand drums are always in quarter inch intervals.
I have a Remo 95/8 fiberskyn djembe, that I used to practice the martillo before I got the matador. It has a very good sound no matter how you play it, so I think fiberskyns on the matador should be fine.

I have mounted Remo fiberskins on my Matadors (fiberglass). They fit.
