There was some discussion in recent posts on Afro percussion congas, unfortunately I can't remember the thread title. A set of three has recently come up for sale and I'd welcome any information or opinions on these congas.
Many thanks,
Bizon

Sorry for the late reply. But, are the Afro's fiber or wood?
If it's fiber, BUY THEM!!! You get best of both worlds, wood&fiber-sound in one drum. In fact they have fiber shells with sawdust glued on the inside. They're called Fiberwood.
Hey, it's a Dutch invention by John van der Meulen.
If it's wood, BUY THEM !!! Especially if the shells are made by Michel De La Porte. They are a piece of art and sound great.
Good luck,
René
