For the bongoceros collectors in the group (Caballoballo & Julito from Texas). Here is a Gon Bops walnut 5 lugs from 1972. Macho 7, hembra 9. I put Pan Con Queso mule skins from Venezuela.
Saludos, Dario :D

Those are some nice-looking drums, my friend. After all these years, do they still hold a tuning?

dario que paso julito from texas. that is not a good piece to play. that is a good piece to put it on a seal case and put it up for another 10 years. it is like a bank account. enjoy it as much as you can. saludos julito tx
