Description

Premium PreMounted™ Bongo Heads: 9″ Hembra are natural skins mounted on 3/16″ stainless steel flesh hoops. They are designed to fit drums with specific shells sizes and crown types right out of the box.

A wide variety of skin types and three color options make your PreMounted™ heads fully customizable to suit any application.

Skin thickness is recommended relative to the shell size- the larger the shell, the thicker the skin. This produces a balanced sound across the entire set of drums.

Bongo Macho: .8mm

Bongo Hembra: 1.2mm

Warm and classic sound with crisp slaps, round open tones, rich bass and controlled overtones:

  1. Bongo Bergo

    Absolutely the best

  2. Michael Giboyeaux

    Great quality heads.

  3. Helmut A.

    Sehr gutes Fell. Ohne Narben und gleichmäßige Dicke. Habe es vor dem Aufziehen auf die 9“ Hembra meiner Meinl Bongo ca. 1 Stunde gewässert. Der Klang ist nach dem Trocknen und Stimmen schön bassig mit dezenten Obertönen. Ein schöner Kontrast zur Macho. Genauso hatte ich mir das vorgestellt.
    Very good skin. I am totally satisfied. Nice bass and little overtones. That’s what I wanted!

  4. Marcos J.

    Excellent quality

  5. Samuel Montgomery

    No finer quality anywhere, at any price.
