Re: Matthew Smith congas / JCR Bongos for sale

I actually owned one of the drum of this set - about the same size as the tumba Barry is selling.

Very nice drums!!! man.. incredible projection on them!

Great deal, as they go for 750 now, with a year wait.

A while back, i talked to Matt about making matching drums to round out this set, he was happy to do it, fyi.

This set was originally made for, and played by Pablo Bautista, a heavy out east.

I know of someone with a third of this original oak set, and he is willing to sell it, last i heard.

These are screaming drums, and at 500 each, a very good price for Matt's work (not at 750 each and most likely going up)

They would also go nicely with a set of JCR Poplar bongo!
