    These are not for beginners as noted. These are quality caskwood bongos with buffalo hide heads. Take the time to rub not just the top heads but the bottoms as well with mink oil. Especially during winter to keep buffalo skin heads from cracking. Remember to un-tune heads when not in use to keep the stress off heads and tuning bars.

  • Good Bongos

    These Bongos IMO are great for beginner and intermediate players. The buffalo heads sound so beautiful when tuned properly!

    What size are the heads? Would these be good to play along with electric guitars?
