Product Details

YOUR FOREVER BONGOS: solid construction, outstanding tone, good-looking—check; these bongos are even prettier in person, and they're made with professional level craftsmanship fit for a wide range of use from recording and touring to jamming with friends
WHY IT MATTERS: you won't need to replace with an upgraded set later; feel proud to own bongos that are motivating to play with a professional sound and feel that lasts
DRIVING THE SOUND: we use humanely sourced, hand-selected buffalo rawhide heads that are easy to tune up and down; shells are crafted with Siam oak staves assembled on uniform grain and density for the best tone
ONE BIG THING: made with Meinl's patented Free Ride Suspension System that avoids drilling holes in the shells; this allows the shells to resonate freely and gives the bongos a wider dynamic range (fits most bongo stands—stand not included)
HOW TO ADJUST PITCH: includes a tuning wrench to make quick adjustments or head changes; tighten the steel tension rods for a higher pitch and loosen to drop pitch (bongos come pre-tuned but may require some adjustment)
BY THE NUMBERS: the heads measure 6 3/4” and 8”; the bongos are 7 3/4" tall and weigh about 9.4 lbs
THE BOTTOM LINE: these professional level bongos give you rich, clean, and resonant tone in any musical setting—live or studio; plus, you might get compliments on their good looks
THE BIG PICTURE: Meinl is a family-owned musical instrument manufacturer and brand established 1951 in Germany; our expert German designers have deep relationships with our builders to ensure you're delivered the absolute finest quality
