TARANG has different solutions for protection and transport of a Tabla set. You can choose from four different alternatives.

Artificial leather cases are the second best choice concerning quality of workmanship and stability of musical instrument cases from India. Besides the fibreglass cases they are also a relatively robust form of storage for your valuable instrument. Admittedly professional musicians mostly choose the fibreglass case because they travel a lot and have to hand in their luggage, but they often use an artificial leather case as a lower-priced alternative. Artificial leather cases are much more durable and robust compared to hard cardboard cases as they are made from a much stiffer material and sometimes also have reinforced edges. The mechanical resistance to wear and tear is thus considerably higher. The inside is lined with a foam layer and a thick layer of velvet which gives additional protection against bumps from outside. Mostly we supply them in a dark brown or sometimes in black.

The case offers space for a Tabla set consisting of Dayan and Bayan (side by side) including the rings.

A reasonably priced alternative to the fibreglass case is the sturdy plastic case in tubular shape. It offers space for a Tabla set consisting of Dayan and Bayan including the rings. First you place the metal Bayan headfirst on the bottom of the tube, then you put the two rings on top and across these you place the Dayan. This way of storing a Tabla set has proven itself in practice and is the storage of their choice for many professional Tabla players.

Undoubtedly the best choice concerning quality of workmanship and stability of musical instrument cases from India are fibreglass cases. They are the most robust form of storage for your valuable instrument. Professional musicians, who very often take their instruments on air journeys, mostly protect it by keeping it in a fibreglass case (that is why they are called flight cases). Whenever you have to hand over your instrument while travelling and when the way the “piece of luggage” is treated is beyond your control, the fibreglass case is the right choice. The cases have a hard exterior shell and a thick inner padding which gives maximum protection against bumps. The fibreglass cases are usually equipped with wheels, which makes taking them on long walks much easier.
