Anthony Carrillo signature bongo

The Anthony Carrillo bongo, in ash, with deep blue stain, consists of a 7” macho and a 9” hembra, each highlighted by a center band and new groove design. And how these drums speak! Loudly or at a whisper, their clarity and tone are undeniable. Though Anthony’s talent may be otherworldly, you don’t need to leave the planet to get his drums, just order them from MOPERC and have them delivered in a few weeks.
