I play a set of Matadors (11.75" and 12.5").  I purchased the 11.75" several months ago on eBay.  It is used and the head shows signs of a lot of playing.  I recently purchased the tumbadora new.  Is there a way to break in new conga heads?  The reason I ask is because my tumba seems to have a rather limited tuning range and it doesn't sound very good.  It sounds "new" (for lack of a better description).  Is there any way to fix this?
