HR El Piernas
Manito Percussion (Sicamore Wood)
Gon Bops (late 70’s early 80’s)
LP 1964 Replicas

Best,

These are the newest addition to my collection. These are either Rosewood or Dark Walnut, LP Pallisades Park with Cuban Rims (late 60’s, early 70’s?) A previous owner engraved some stuff on the rims. I’m going to have that removed soon. These sound awesome and look Great. I added Mule skins on Macho and Hembra.

Hello.
From what I can see, it looks like dark walnut to me.

Let's see what other members will say.

Thanks for the feedback. I didn’t do much to clean the shells when I got them. After a light sanding all I added was some wood conditioner and clear gloss.
