Just bought set of three Remos with NuSkyn heads, sounds great - just what I was looking for. Heads are very responsive to all variations Slap, Palming for bass, Open slap, Closed slap. These are not wood congas but they are not Fibereglass either - and sounds better than (sorry to say) Matadors or classics or Tocas. Then again it is all in the personal preference - I love them and planning to enjoy them for long long time. Need advise on raising them a bit off the ground to get better amplification. I inserted four tea coasters on four sides for now, worked for me but I am going to create feet for them with a 2X2 small block with one inch wide slot to put them on on bottom ring of conga, if I succeed, I will put the design up on this forum - Keep up the beat !!!!
