knowledge those were the last run of LP mahogany bongos
until this year's LP Original 1964 Mahogany Bongos. I would
not be surprised if the first run of LP Gen II's were mahogany
bongos. Them bongos are super light.

It also seems to be less conical in form which would be another plus IMO...either way those older model Gen IIs were much better made than today's version...good luck!!

I sent an e-mail to Mr. Martin Cohen about that and the answer it was that this bongos is mahogany, the label is not the original one, and its made in the late 60's or near to that time. I'm feel lucky to get those bongos for 200$ and they are in good condition.
