I have seen examples where the owners of the congas were not careful in their tuning and stretched the rivets. I have seen the welded ones tuned so poorly they were lifting the screws through the wood and deforming the holes drilled into the shell.

Yours look exactly like mine except that mine has the wood inlay.
I also have the Gon Bops case. Mine is only a 10" head but it has
a big sound with virtually zero overtones.
