Product Description
LP Generation II Bongos – Professional Sound and Durability
The LP Generation II Bongos are a top choice for the world’s leading percussionists, known for their superior tone, durability, and playability. Crafted from kiln-dried Siam Oak, these bongos are built to deliver crisp, distinct high tones with a robust low-end, making them perfect for a wide range of musical styles.
The hand-selected rawhide heads are specially treated to achieve a uniform opaque white color and a softer touch, enhancing both tone and feel. The bongos also feature a more pronounced shell contour, which helps create brighter, sharper high tones that cut through the mix.
Designed with professional players in mind, especially those in the Salsa genre, these bongos include a steel backing plate that helps prevent cracks when the bongos are placed on the floor and used to play a bongo cowbell.
