"Good Product, Good Price.. something different, pleasant sound."

Feature:
Not many features, it's a wooden box, looks like a small step stool, but I wouldn't suggest using it as one.

Quality:
Seems well made, everything fits well, seems solid.

Value:
A little expensive for a box, but then again, it's not a regular box.

Desirability:
Just a rectangular box.

Sound:
I like the "woody" sound, different than the ring or overtones of a regular bongo. To me it sounds like a mix of a bongo sound with a wood percussion instrument, like a wood block.

Ease of Use:
The shape is a little odd, being rectangular, but with a little experimentation you can find a comfortable way of holding it. Go on You Tube or the meinl web site and you can see a good way of holding on.

Support:
No.

Overall:
Good design, perhaps being a different shape might be good, but you get used to it. I like the sound and you never have to tune it. What it lacks in versatility it makes up for in terms of being different.

Submitted: 8/7/2007

Style of Music: Up for anything.
