So far, the cheapest price I've seen is the above.

If anyone can beat this price with a set they're selling, I might be interested. Take care all!

While those are indeed beautiful (culturally and aesthetically speaking), I'm looking for a name-brand set for two reasons:

1) Easier to get heads for them
2) Tuning like congas, with metal hoops, is tougher and retains tuning better. I'd prefer that.

Thank you for the lovely pictures, though. They look like a nice set!

I posted another thread on this forum on how I got a set. So I'm all set.

Thank you for your suggestions and postings!
