Wow, those ARE good-sounding congas! I don't know much (if anything) about the material used to make the heads, but whatever they use it really sounds great (it is pretty funny tho that the guy played it so much that it could b mistaken 4 bleached cow skin lol).

Playing in a concrete room with solid ceramic tile floors has a lot to do with it.

What are peoples thoughts on moperc's carved staves rather than steam bent? I'm thinking of buying mopercs.
