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.

Yes they do and as a matter of fact I happen to have 2 Remo Nuskyn heads that fit 11.75 LP congas that are basically new that I will let go of cheaply PM me if interested maybe I can help you save some money.

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.
