The Bongo comes from Cuba. They are made from wood, fibreglass, other plastic, or even clay. Most Bongos are tuneable using a special system which is similar to that of a Conga. The player holds the drum tightly between the knees while the bigger drum is close to the dominant hand. Usually one plays the Bongo with the fingers, sometimes with light drum set sticks.
