Fun!

For the price point you can't go wrong! Came well packaged with a gig bag to store it in. I got mine to use more as a rope tenor drum so, I think I'm going to trade out the goat heads for fiberskyn heads. However, the goat heads are really pretty neat! Lightweight, easy on the body. Not a fancy finish, but then you only paid $100 for it. Thumbs up.

Just ok

Comments:

There are different types of bombos. This is a situation where you get what you pay for. You cannot return this as shipping back to company is the same price of the instrument. This one is definitely to be played off the ground due to the sound being terrible when placed flat on the ground. The strap came off as soon as I tried to use it. Also i ended up having to shave the head as suggested in other reviews to be able to play this. There were mild improvements in sound. It works ok for now, but would not recommend. The rich sound and deep resonance of a bombo are missing.

Excellent bombo!

Comments:

While this is a machined instrument and not a hand-crafted drum, it's perfect for most uses and three to five times cheaper than the traditional handmade drum. It sounds and looks great; completely functional. I agree with the other reviewer who recommended shaving the hair on both drum heads for a more resonant tone. I shaved the hair to a quarter inch length and it still looks great and sounds clearer. This drum is a great deal.

Drum

Comments:

This drum is great, I dont normally do reviews, but drum is perfect size, not huge, not too small, and has a unique sound. We were looking for an older style drum for a pioneer festival, and something we can use in live and recording settings, has a nice thump to it.

Great Drum

Comments:

I bought this drum in Feb 2021. Have been playing it for over 2 years now. I love it. And my audiences usually enjoy it as it is resonant but warm in its tone. Great drum, especially at this price point!
