Yes. Same ones, Ebay a few years back. But, the former owner is an active member here & there are some other pics in the archives. P-Park, all original except for the heads.
I had never seen another so I wrote to Martin Cohen and asked him about it. He wrote back and told me it was an experiment. They tried a lot of things in those days including making a few solid-shells. I'd love to come across one of those.
To my ears, most LP wood bongos that size and shape sound pretty much the same. This is the only bongo I have with a horse-hide macho and that does sound a bit different. To my ears, my Ismaels and El Piernas have a "bigger" sound and an SOS cherrywood, that I play a lot lately, has a "warmer" sound, and my small Requena has a "tighter" sound. But ????
