Notes

• Very rare set of Mica Sonic Electronic Bongo drums. Might be one of the first electronic drums produced!
• It has no manufacturer’s information but we are now certain that it was made in Japan in the (probably) early 70s by Mica Sonic who made drum kits in the that period.
• Previously owned by the band Maps and Atlases!
• Battery powered, it has two congas, two bongos and a woodblock with an on/off “mute” control for each (takes the basic reverb off the sound), and a master volume control. Each pad just has a simple piezo pick up but there is a a reasonable amount of sensitivity that allows a range of volume – it needs to be played with sticks, ideally rubber ended.
• Output jack is a little scratchy but only when wiggled
