| | | | I bought some bongos a few years ago...I wanted to internalize some Latin rhythms/claves. Another by-product is translating the left/right or right/left rhythms to your slap/pop thing on the bass.

On the topic of actual BONGOS  They sound more like what I think bongos should sound like, and much, much, MUCH, better than the samples from guitar pro 
They got those so wrong its not even funny 
I might record some bad playing later, so yall might wanna clear out |

On topic, a actually really like bongos, and used to play them quiet a bit, 7/8 years ago. One of the more fun instruments, enjoy 'em.
