LP John "Dandy" Rodriguez Beech Wood Bongos
The John Rodriguez Bongos are made from Beech wood which grants them a great deal of extra resonance. The slightly wider hembra (larger) drum has a 9" diameter for louder volume. The dark stain with the black band on these drums is quite distinctive, as are the traditional rims and cuban-style steel bottoms. This instrument is designed specifically for the seated bongo player, with a small center block for greater comfort while holding the drums.
