Hi
Everyday I follow what happen in the forum but very rarely I write or comment topics, so I have decided to show my old drum, may be it could be something of interesting to congas lovers.
Thank to all and to Your contribution to this forum.

I love every thing you got, especially the Eco Tones. I presently have an Eco Tone bongo from around 1959/60, very rare piece.

Different colors with stripes, also glitter like your black one. My bongos are glitter like your conga. I had a pair of 11" and !2". I really like Eco Tones, more than Kings. They have a unique sound, first fiberglass congas ever made by Frank Mesa. Photo of mine enclosed.
