Rawhide conga heads tend to have a warm, deep tone with a lot of nuance layered into the sound. Real skin heads offer a more authentic look and tone than synthetic materials offer, but they are susceptible to changes in humidity and temperature, making them more fragile.
Meinl's Floatune series has all of the hardware completely isolated from the shell, meaning the resonant vibrations of the shell are uninhibited. This head will allow for a free, open resonance with every note played.
