Rhythm Traders' Steer & Premium Water Buffalo Skins for Congas:

We carry both 20" Steer and Premium Water Buffalo skins for you to mount.
Water Buffalo vs. Steer? When you hear Latin recordings from the 60's and 70's, (usually on Gon Bops or Valje's), what you are hearing is Steer. Most Congas today, (manufactured by LP, Toca, Pearl, Meinl, to name a few) are made in Thailand and they use the closest relative of the Steer that they can inexpensively use...the Water Buffalo.
Steer has a warmer tone and is more melodic. Usually "white-ish" and opaque in appearance...perfect for Rumba.
Water Buffalo, on the other hand, is emerging as the skin for the contemporary sound (think Giovanni Hidalgo). Buffalo is thinner, has more ring to it, and makes for the crisp slaps you hear on recent recordings. Usually translucent, and or brownish in color...perfect for Salsa.
We offer DISCOUNT pricing for those ordering 10 or more of these skins. (See below)
