NOTE: Returns will not be accepted for replacement drum skins. Please double-check with the manufacturer of your instrument to ensure that you are purchasing the correct head for your drum.

    Thats's why I only use X8 premium skins

    Posted by Unknown on 24th Nov 2014

    I repair Djembes as a hobby and for fiends as needed. I like bringing life back to these beautiful instruments. My first drum repair was using an X8 skin and the drum sounded great but I wasn't sure if I would continue to use the skins because of the branding. I tried skins from other supplier that didn't have branding and now I understand :) That's why I only use X8 premium skins!

    awesome

    It was first time replacing the skin on my 13 year old drum. I looked in San Antonio, couldn't find a replacement so I ordered from x8. Then I changed my order the next day. Customer service was great, fast shipping. My drum sounds great. Lesson learned - don't use yarn to hold the wet skin on the drum. The die from the yarn comes out and dies the skin! Looks kind of cool though.

    My order arrived much faster than I had expected. The quality of the skin was premium indeed... If it sounds half as good as it looks, my drum will be awesome! Best service, Best merchandise... Nuff said?
