Presenting our very first video highlighting the manufacturing process for our California Series Congas and Bongos! This film shows the true art that goes into making these completely hand-crafted, state-of-the-art drums, detailing the steps from start to finish. Featuring our master craftsman Benjamin Von Keutz, with original music by Luisito Quintero & Alfonso Cayon, Gon Bops’ California Series are hand-crafted in Meductic, New Brunswick, Canada.
NOTE: CALIFORNIA SERIES IS TEMPORARILY UNAVAILBLE.

I bought my Gon Bops in 1972 when I was in the Navy. They have been with me everywhere. 5 ships, 2 shore duty stations, and a lot bands, and they still sound great. and no cracks🤩

Cool video. Such simple materials made to look amazing.
This is very interesting. I want a set!!!
Definitely a lot more labor than carving a premium West African djembe shell.I guess it balances out when you ring and rope tune the djembe vs hole drilling,hardware and conga head installation.
Nice
Labor intensive / beautiful finished product / how many hours start to finish⁉️ very impressed/ learned something today / thank U!!!!🥁😎

Thank you for watching! It takes approximately 4-6 months from start to finish, to complete a drum. The drying process of the wood, once the staves are steamed and bent, takes time for them to take and maintain their final shape.
Can you made a timbal video???
