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...

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.
