Eastar Bongo Drums 6” and 7” Wood Percussion Instrument Bongos for Kids Adults Beginners Natural Finish, EBO-1

These are excellent bongos! They sound amazing and are easy to use. If you buy them and when you hit them in the center, they don't have that "bongo sound" you think they should, try hitting them closer to the edge near you. That will get you the sound you're looking for. They feel very well made and it's awesome that they come with a carrying case to tote them around with. When I go into the office, I'll be taking these with me to mess around with on my lunch break from time to time. The carrying case is well made albeit a bit thin on the material. It has a shoulder strap and carries the bongos very nicely. I would still be careful with where you put them with the bag, because it doesn't have padding or anything like that in it to protect the bongos. It's fine though, as the bongos are so sturdy, that unless you're being really rude to them they should be fine. I give this set 5 stars and I highly recommend it for anyone who wants to learn to play them or just bang on them for fun.

Product is as good as the seller. It matches their description

Those are real double rim bongos. The natural wood and real skin heads give them a warm and resonant tone. One of my skins has a slight blemish, I guess it's due to using natural materials instead of man-made, but it doesn't affect the sound. I use mine to go play with friends, and the carrying case is great, especially because carrying the bongos in the rain could affect the skins and the tuning. The bongos are playable out of the box (video) but most people would prefer to have a higher tone: simply use the wrench provided to turn the bolts at the bottom. Turn each bolt 1/4 turn, then decide if you like the sound. or repeat tightening the bolts until you like it. If you use YouTube videos to learn how to play, try to tune to roughly the same tone as in the video, it helps! You may hear some creaking, but it's natural when using natural materials, don't be scared to play with the tuning. The wrench comes with a fabric bag to prevent it from banging around when carrying the bongos, which is a nice touch. Fun fact: the smaller drum is called the "macho" (male), and the larger drum is called the "hembra" (female). Play with the bongo between your legs, with the macho on the left. My community has "drum circles" where random people com with their percussion instruments and play together. Great to learn about all kind of rhythms. The bongos are a great instrument for this because they are easily portable and are easy for beginners: at first just do simple slaps of the drum (maybe copying someone else's main beat), but as you become more confident you can use thumb and fingertip strikes ans use both drums as you learn more complex patterns.

Ordered this for a young guy as a gift. He's a total beginner, so can't say how a pro would like these. The drums are put together and proportioned well and sit level. The smaller drum has what seems a slightly less quality leather, but only slight difference, for whatever reason. The sound is good by our standards, meaning, not expert. So overall, great gift, looks and plays well, no problems!

Its a beautiful bongo my only problem is the small drum seems kind of dull no pop, it must be the tuning I turned the nuts a few times my problem is without instructions I don't really know what I'm doing and I'm afraid of breaking something, I'm only had it a few hours so I'm hoping with a little experience I'll figure this out

Great

I bought these as a Thank you for my musical friend. This color is vibrant and fun. The drums are excellent quality. I would have paid more if I had known the quality would be this nice. My musical friend plays them a lot. He said the sound they produce is crisp and clear. They are easy to tune, easy to play and easy to travel with. He has started to teach his son about these bongos. As a buyer,, I highly recommend them as great value for money. As a music man, my friend highly recommends them for excellent quality and even better sound. He has added them to his live performances. ACRK

At my son like this. Have a good material

Well made, heavy duty most solid set of bongos i have ever seen. Would recommend anyone thinking of getting kids into drums, to try these out. They will stand the test of time.

Bought for myself as a gift, as I always fancied playing the bongo's. Bought these as they were a very good price and had great reviews. Glad i chose these because they are super quality and sound great.
