I just ordered the meinl professional bongo cajon. Now I've found your channel for help learning the techniques to let each sound ring properly and/or sound properly. I wondered if you've played them and have thoughts or have them you could use in a video?

[@jboogie512]

Where did you purchase those bongo heads?

[@dinodancer8115]

Any suggestions or tips for tuning los bongos? You have a video for tuning las congas

[@dixonvillanueva7720]

👍

[@ginomartinelli1003]

nice

[@diybasics6270]

Eric, I purchased a pre mounted steer head for my tumba, but its very tight going into the crown. should it be that way. The conga did not have that problem. I am trying to reach manito percussion for a possible replacement but I don't have a contact #. Do you? thanks

[@APercussionLife]

So is the issue that the flesh part isn’t fitting well on the crown? And you can contact them via email at [e-mail] someone named Swen should help you with that.

[@diybasics6270]

Yes, exactly. Ok I will hope to hear back from them. Thanks Eric

[@APercussionLife]

Oh man... yeaaa they may need to replace it because the flesh hoop is where the measurement is off.

[@jbjohna]

A workout??? Wait...let me grab a beer.

[@APercussionLife]

jbjohna 😂😂😂😂

[@digiphot2]

Are Bongos supposed to ring or POP?...Mine sound tinny and not sharp...Is it the head or what?

[@thestravaiger8102]

Try retuning, if no better, some new/better heads? They should pop 👍

[@shreyassurve1089]
