    Great Bongos

    Posted by Tom Gibson on 11th Aug 2014

    These bongos sound exactly like I expected. The beechwood gives a more dry sound which I like. I didn't know weather the macho could take it but I tuned it to the key of A and the hembra down a 5th to D. No problem and they sound great. I also think the Dandy bongos are just plain beautiful.
