The LP City Series Vintage Sunburst Bongo is an excellent choice for beginner and student percussionists seeking a quality instrument at an accessible price.

Authentic Sound and Traditional Construction

The core of the LP City Series Bongo’s design is its commitment to both quality sound and durable construction.

Siam Oak Shells: The shells are crafted from environmentally friendly Siam Oak, a wood known for its warm, resonant tone. The wood provides a solid foundation for the instrument, allowing for a full and rich sound that is both traditional and powerful.
Rawhide Heads: The bongos feature natural rawhide heads on both the 6″ and 7″ drums. This material is essential for producing a classic bongo sound, offering a bright slap and a deep, resonant bass tone.
Black Powder-Coated Hardware: The bongos are outfitted with durable, black powder-coated hardware, including 9/32″ lugs. This not only enhances the visual appeal but also provides a reliable and sturdy tuning system.

Convenient and Practical Features

The LP City Series Bongo is engineered for maximum convenience and ease of use, with several thoughtful features that make it a practical choice for any musician.

Compact and Portable: The 6″ and 7″ head sizes make these bongos a great, portable option for musicians who are constantly on the move or for use in smaller spaces.
Tuning Wrench Included: The bongos come with a tuning wrench, so you have everything you need to keep your instrument in tune and ready to play right out of the box.
Vintage Sunburst Finish: The “Vintage Sunburst” finish gives the bongos a classic and stylish look, making them a great visual addition to any performer’s setup.

The LP City Series Vintage Sunburst Bongo is a perfect blend of authentic sound, reliable construction, and aesthetic appeal, making it a valuable addition to any percussionist’s gear.
