Whether on stage with Santana or leading his own group, distinguished Puerto Rican, master percussionist, Paoli Mejias is ranked among the best in Latin jazz, rock and salsa. His soulful and energetic play is best heard on a pair of his signature Balance bongos. These drums deliver crackling highs and rich mid-tones. Constructed with Sculpted Ash, they are outfitted with natural rawhide heads, Comfort Curve II rims, 5/16″ diameter tuning lugs, and cast bottoms.
