The English word "tabor" is derived from the Latin word for drum. Today we use the term tabor to refer to the two headed squat drums associated with the Fife and Drum. The tabor drum looks like a frame drum shell with two heads. Players usually hang the drum from the forearm while using one stick to strike the snared head. The tabor is suspended by a strap from the forearm, somewhere between the elbow and wrist. They should never be played on a drum stand, which would muffle the sound. Today Tabors have a variety of names that reflect the cultures that play them as well as the different sizes of drum. Includes drum sticks. Made in Pakistan.
