Re: stave drum???
Hey, cdaug, I almost thought it was a new kind of bongo drum at first ! (Yeah, you know how my mind works! )
Truth is, stave drums would be assembled in much the same way as the first bongos and congas, with alternating staves of wood like that shown in your photo...would love to play that one myself, man...bet it would sound different than a traditional wood or metal snare or tom!
keep the beat goin' ... Don't keep it to yourself!
