A Great Conga Set for Beginners and Experienced Players Alike!

The Latin Percussion City Series Conga Set makes a perfect instrument for everyone, from beginners to students to performing musicians. Constructed from environmentally friendly Siam oak, each of the two 28-inch-tall congas in the City Series Conga Set is equipped with reliable, rugged hardware, comfortable EZ Curve rims, robust tuning lugs, a tuning wrench, and natural rawhide heads. You also get a height-adjustable double stand that holds the 10- and 11-inch congas in place. Percussionists here at Sweetwater love the sound and durability of these Latin Percussion congas.

Made from renewable resources

LP congas are made from plantation-grown wood. By using renewable resources, LP protects the world's forests. This helps to ensure adequate wood supply to produce congas for generations to come. The wood is sorted and graded, and only top-quality wood is used. Latin Percussion–brand congas must not only look good but also stand up to diverse climates and vigorous playing conditions.

Why kiln-dried wood is important

The wood used in Latin Percussion–brand congas is kiln dried. Using kiln-dried wood allows LP to control the wood's moisture content level during the manufacturing process. Wood, even after it is harvested, expands and contracts. The wood used to manufacture all fine wood instruments, including congas, must have just the right moisture content level to help prevent the instrument from cracking and breaking. Latin Percussion congas are played by the world's most demanding players in all seasons and climates, in every region of the world. Using kiln-dried wood helps the conga stand up to many different environmental and playing conditions.

Play with confidence

All Latin Percussion–brand congas are fitted with tuning lugs manufactured from specially heat-treated, high-carbon steel and feature precision-cut threads for smooth tuning, strength, and durability. Due to the enormous amount of stress that is required to tune a conga head, the design of the sideplate is crucial. During the tuning process, there is enormous tension pulling on the upper part of the sideplate. Because of this, Latin Percussion–brand sideplates are wider at the top to distribute the tension from the head and rim over a larger surface area, providing additional durability.

Latin Percussion City Series Conga Set Features:

  • Quality congas crafted from kiln-dried, environmentally friendly Siam oak
  • Black powder coated hardware for durability
  • EZ Curve rims with improved strength and a curved surface for playing comfort
  • Natural rawhide tucked heads produce great tone
  • Included height-adjustable double conga stand

Long lasting

My dad bought a set of these probably 20 years ago and they are still going strong. Original heads and everything. What else can I say? They are a nice decoration sitting around and then you can improv jam at anytime. Just wonderful. Oh and-they sound so cool! Can't go wrong. I usually only play one sitting in a chair, so you can split them up between homes or people. For the price you can have 2 lifetime lasting drums. Express yo-self!
