My Manito Percussion Pre-Mounted Mule skin Bongo Heads arrived, yesterday.
Here's how they look on my 70's era LPs.

I tuned them up today. I am very satisfied; exactly what I had hoped.

Except for changing heads several times over the years and an upgrade on one of the tuning hooks due to a stripped thread, I have done nothing to alter these since I bought them, in 1979.

Saludos,good skins that will last an eternity. I have 1 on the moperc macho since 2006. Imho to my like the hembra skin is too thin to produce the old school sound.
