Question:
Why should I order a skin pre-mounted when my friends say it's so easy I should mount it myself and save a few bucks? The answers are simple. When I mount the skin for you, you know it will fit with the perfect size flesh hoop and the skin will be trimmed without leaving knife marks cut into the inside of the Tension hoop, This is very important if the Tension hoop is Gold plated. If I accidentally cut the skin (believe me it happens, not very often for me, but I would just mount another one. It is much easer to install my premounted heads because the neck does not need to be removed or even loosened. The head just needs the strings removed and it installs just like a plastic head. Also, The Flesh hoop fits the neck profile and the space between the tension hooks and the rim. There is never a need to file away at the flesh hoop to make it fit.
