LP Matador bongos are renowned for durable construction. using natural rawhide skins stretched over traditional red Siam oak shells. Favored by professional percussionists to produce balanced tone and resonant projection to cut through the mix. Easy tuning of metal rims and tuning rods (requires a 5/16-inch wrench; will ship untuned). Shells show some light wear on a pair of bongos in otherwise excellent condition and ready to play.
