This is a very old post (1999), but I found it and it cracked up. I love minature things. I have a mini sitar that's about 14 inches long. I found this post below, and I'm actually going to buy these mini tablas. Dan, if you are still out there. Thanks!

They work wonderfuly for looping, they are smaller in size, but due to the shell material they are actually louder than regular tablas. Juerg and I are also developing a drumhead that you can hit with a stick, so you could mount it off a drumset and have no troubles at all. Feel free to send any questions my way. -Dan From: "Dennis W.

Date: Fri, 9 Apr 1999 09:53:40 -0500 IMHO, Tabla are one of the ultimate drums. At one point in my life I was debating selling all my other instruments (over 150) and devoting myself to the tabla. Fortunately, this temporary mania passed. Tabla are extremely versatile but I find it hard to get a good sound since they're relatively quiet. I usually use a pair of mics. Good in the studio, trouble on stage. I haven't tried a pick-up yet. After this thread, I'm definitely going to! Check-out the "mini-tablas" on http://www.tabla.com/tablahpg.html . These might work better for looping.
