I just received my New Hawaiian Mango bongos...all I can say is INCREDIBLE!..light weight, sounds INTENSE and CRISP slaps..beautiful dark skins....Once again Tom Alexander creates another work of Art!....
Tom is dealing with esophagus cancer and has now hired an apprentice to carry on his work, should anything happen to him...Living in paradise isn't all it's cracked up to be sometime...
AWESOME!! What a cool set of bongos! I sure hope Tom pulls through! You must be stoked Johnny! I've been lusting after the koa bongos for a loooong time myself.
Congratulations Johnny. Would sure love to own some one day I believe that Volcanos are some of the most beautiful drums arround, next to my Requena ofcourse
Once I contacted Volcano inquiring about prices they wanted an arm & a leg for one Bongó. I do not trust the shape of those lugs either,they may slip off during high tension.
