About Meinl Bongos

After careful crafting, Meinl Percussion presents the Journey Series Bongos, an ideal instrument for both budding and seasoned percussionists. These bongos, measuring 6.5" and 7.5", are constructed from environmentally sustainable and incredibly resilient ABS plastic, ensuring a traditional style shell that can withstand the rigors of travel and varying weather conditions.

The Journey Series Bongos are not just durable, but also stylish and professional, making them a preferred choice for touring percussionists. The synthetic shells, finished in a sleek black, offer a robust structure that enhances resonance, projection, clarity, and warmth of sound, making these bongos a versatile addition to any percussion ensemble.

One of the standout features of these bongos is the hand-selected buffalo skin heads. These natural drum heads, measuring 6.5" and 7.5", deliver a classic sound full of dynamic warmth and depth, coupled with sharp highs and an outstanding feel. This high-quality material ensures a responsive and rich tonal quality that will impress any audience.

Comfort and control are paramount in the design of the Journey Series Bongos. The black powder-coated steel rims are rounded and sit lower than traditional bongo rims, preventing unwanted or harsh contact with the rim during play. This innovative design enhances the playing experience, allowing for a more fluid and comfortable performance.

The two individual drums are connected with a traditional solid block connection, a design favored by top recording and touring artists for decades. This synthetic connection block is compatible with any bongo stand, adding to the versatility of these bongos.

Tuning your Meinl Percussion Journey Bongos is a breeze, thanks to the four tunable 8mm lugs on each drum. A tuning wrench is included for quick, on-the-spot adjustments or head changes, ensuring your bongos always deliver the best sound possible. Experience the blend of durability, style, and high-quality sound with the Meinl Percussion Journey Series Bongos.
