REQUENA BONGOS FROM THE CUBAN MUSEUM IN MIAMI

Postby Omelenko1 » Thu Feb 09, 2012 6:28 pm

Cuban Candido Requena bongos from the Cuban Museum in Miami. These are available for sale, they belong to my friend Mario. I recently got a Vergara tumbadora from the same place. I have posted photos of my Vergara in a previous post.

Somebody here,one of the regulars, buy these before they are gone. I have one of the same and love them! They are small and light but with a big sound. And, they take you back in time. Don't let these get away.

I agree. Somebody from this forum better garb this. I've got one and the sound is amazing for the size of the drum! :o
