A pair of small drums (one slightly larger than the other) normally associated with beatniks. Bongos however, are commonly used in Latin and Afro-Cuban
music. If you decide to invest in bongos, be aware that people around you think that they are good at playing them.. this can be fixed by taking your bongos back and hammering a sexy beat with different methods (e.g.
slap, muted
slap, rim shot, thumb, fingers, etc.)
