My only question about goat skin is....aren't they too thin? If they are they could be a problem.. (Heard about goat skin in tamboras but not on bongos).
The problem that I forsee is that if they are too thin and use the current "high" tuning that most bongoseros are using, the tension from the tuningmight break your heads easily. (It could like having those "indian" heads which are very fragile).
Again...I might be wrong... I am wondering about the experience of others...
Regarding Remo synthetic heads, yes, they have sizes that fit all LP bongos that have professional sizes. (Yours appears to be in the professional size, 7 1/2 and 8 3/4)..
