that looks very authentic. i have played djembe for 18 years now, seen 'em all, played 'em all. 70 is way too much for a head replacement. i usually charge 60, and that includes a skin. the reason african goat skins are better too, is that they can't afford barbed wire to contain them, and as a result, there are far fewer scars on the top of the back. cause the middle east goat skins are just as low fat... domestic goats are usually a pretty poor choice, unless you can get it fresh, or freshly frozen. then they just sing... nothing like a fresh raw hide with the fat smell still on it to make your instrument really sing, ya know...
