Latin Percussion 40th Anniversary Congas, and Bongos When designing an instrument that would adequately reflect LP's four decades of leadership, commitment, innovation, and passion, some very special drums evolved — the LP 40th Anniversary Congas and Bongos. The congas are full size 30" wooden drums which are available in all three popular sizes,11" Quinto, 11-3/4" Conga, and 12-1/2" Tumbadora. They are fitted with Gold Tone Comfort Curve II Rims to enhance resonance and lessen player fatigue. The bongos have standard 7-1/4" and 8-5/8" diameter heads and are fitted with Gold Tone Comfort Curve Rims and hardware. The finish commands attention: From the top, a blond wood with well defined grain fades gradually to a reddish amber hue and then to an ebony stain at the bass of the drum — a truly beautiful "design" that would grace any stage or studio. A custom designed LP 40th Anniversary Logo is inset into each drum with an innovative inlay process that is sealed with a luxurious lacquer finish. The logo's "reaching" strands symbolize LP's eternal quest for innovation and sonic excellence. Each drum has a unique serial number that signifies it as an official drum in the LP 40th Anniversary Series and comes with a certificate of authenticity. Even the hand selected rawhide heads are imprinted with the special LP 40th Anniversary Logo, making this drum truly collectible, while premium shell materials, Pro Care Integrated Shell Protectors and reinforced LP Side Plates ensure this drum will be speaking in a language of crisp slaps and wicked lows for easily another forty years. The congas also include a gold-toned LP Mic Lug, an ingenious accessory that makes miking the drum easy. And it wouldn't be an LP conga set without our rugged tuning wrench and lug lube, sealed into our trademark black pouch.
