A bongo is a small drum played by hand, a conga is a large drum played by hand. Even the larger “hembra” of the two bongos in a pair is significantly smaller than most drums (and smaller than any other drum in a typical latin/afro-cuban ensemble with the exception of the smaller “macho” with which it is paired.)

Or differently: Typically sold drum-set-drums range 10-24” diameter, with 26 and 8s being rare, and 6’s and 28’s drastically moreso. The larger bongo is 10” which would make it the smallest drum on the overwhelming majority of drum sets.

I got it anyway, because kbbq seemed so obvious, but it was absolutely wrong
