Da Tang Gu Tang Gu is known as "Tong Gu". In Qing Dynasty, it was called "Zhang Gu". It is normally made of Buffalo’s Skin. The pitch and tone of the sound produced are not definite. It depends on the strength and which part of the Drum Skin is being hit.

Unlike Xiao Tang Gu, Da Tang Gu produced a lower pitch sound.
