Re: Bongo - Tuning.
I played latin percussion for years before trying my hand a drum kits. [I] find that a lot of non latin players tune their macho(smaller of the two drums) too low .he macho should have a nice pop to it. The hembra the larger of the two should be more thuddy sounding. Look for videos of Johnny Dandy Rodriguez and listen to how his bongos are tuned. PM me if you have questions
