1/2
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A 7.15-inch tucked Fiberskyn bongo head for the larger (hembra) drum. For players replacing a worn head or moving from natural skin.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Replacing a split or stretched head on the large bongo
- Players wanting a synthetic head that ignores humidity swings
- Hand drummers who want warmth without natural skin upkeep
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- The small (macho) bongo, which takes a smaller diameter
- Players committed to the feel and response of natural hide
- Anyone unsure of their exact head measurement
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Tucked
Already wrapped and secured onto its flesh hoop, so it drops in without hand-tucking or wet-mounting.
Detail 03
7.15 in.
Bongo sizing is precise to the hundredth. A 7 or 7.25-inch head will not seat correctly.
Detail 04
Synthetic material
Holds pitch through temperature and humidity changes, unlike hide, which loosens in damp air.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Measure your existing head or shell — bongo sizes vary by maker
- 02Single head only, not a pair for both drums
- 03You'll need the wrench that fits your bongo's tuning lugs
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Which bongo does this fit, the big or small one?
At 7.15 inches this is for the larger drum, the hembra. The smaller macho drum takes a narrower head.
02Do I have to soak or tuck it?
No. It arrives tucked on its hoop. Remove the rim, swap the head, and retighten evenly.
03How does Fiberskyn compare to a clear head?
Warmer and drier, with less high-end ring. It's textured, so slaps and fingertip work read closer to natural skin.
04Will it fit any brand of bongos?
Only if that drum measures 7.15 inches. Bongo head sizes aren't as standardized as drum kit sizes — measure first.
