Hollow a log into a drum.
It's the space inside that makes the sound.

Thanks for the photos, those are nice looking drums, very rare those mahogany Sols.
For those of you who don't know, Dave is the one in the Hawiian shirt.

Thanks Bob, I'm sorry to hear that Tuco had problems of ringy sound with his Oak Gon Bops (They're really Sols - same drum as mine except Oak).. I guess it just doesn't translate from the beautiful woody smooth sound of the Mahogony Sols - as the sound files may demonstrate. But, no matter the conga, as they are "played in", they lose much of the ringy character.
