About This Item
The Latin Percussion LP201AX-2 bongos are a bongo drum set crafted from Siam Oak shells designed to support consistent tone and durability for regular use in practice, recording, or live performance. This set includes traditional 7-1/4" macho and 8-5/8" hembra drum sizes, providing a familiar playing setup for bongos used across Latin, pop, and acoustic music. Handpicked natural rawhide heads combined with a pronounced shell contour help produce defined highs and fuller low tones, supporting balanced sound and articulation. Comfort Curve II rims are shaped to improve playing comfort during extended sessions, while chrome-plated cast aluminum bottoms, a reinforced center block, and chrome hardware contribute to structural stability and alignment. The 5/16" tuning lugs allow controlled head tension adjustments for flexible tuning, making these bongos suitable for players integrating them with other musical instruments such as congas and related hand percussion.
