Description

Meinl DG400CW Diego Galé Artist Series Bongo – 7″ & 8.5″ is a premium bongo set made for serious musicians. Developed with Grammy-winning percussionist Diego Galé, these drums are designed for rich sound, high performance, and elegant style—on stage or in the studio.

Materials and Build Quality

These bongos are crafted from high-quality American white ash, known for its strong, balanced tone. The natural wood grain shines through a smooth, high-gloss finish. Each set includes a 7″ macho drum and an 8.5″ hembra, offering a wide range of tones from deep lows to crisp highs.

The hand-selected buffalo skin heads produce a warm, earthy sound with great clarity and response. Meinl’s Free Ride Suspension System (FRSS) keeps the shells free from mounting hardware. This improves resonance and gives the drums a clean, modern look. Durable hardware and rounded SSR tuning lugs make tuning smooth and secure.

Performance and Use Case

These bongos are ideal for professional percussionists in Latin, jazz, and world music settings. They respond beautifully to both traditional and modern techniques. Whether you’re performing live or recording in a studio, they deliver power, warmth, and precision. Their ergonomic design also makes them comfortable for extended playing.
