Difference Between Bongos & Congas

While the two can be confusing, distinguishing between bongos and congas is easy with a few key points in mind:

• Bongos: These are the smaller, stouter drums that come linked in a pair. They produce a higher tone and are more easily transported.
• Congas: These are the convex, elongated drums typically mounted on a stand. Congas produce a more robust sound and are staples in genres from merengue to salsa.
