Jay Bereck Skin on Skin Oak Congas (1981) on Ebay


Two 1981 Skin On Skin Congas currently on Ebay.
Let's see what they eventually sell for.
I say between $600.00 & $1,000 considering the economy sucks.

The person selling these contacted me a few weeks ago and asked me what they were worth, he told me he bought them at an estate sale.
Those dark lines at the bottom of the drums came from sediment & impurities that got into the wood, they were caused by the metal steaming barrel Jay used in the early 1980's, Jay eventually fixed it.
