The LP Classic Accent 11 3/4 Conga Richie Garcia Signature is a unique design made in collaboration with percussion artist Richie Garcia. Made from Romanian Tilia wood the Richie Garcia Signature Conga produces a distinctive low rich full-bodied tone with incredible resonance. The 11 3/4 body provides a well-balanced tone with a shorter resonance and sounds stunning when accompanied with the Richie Garcia Signature quinto tumba or when played on its own. Garcia insisted that his signature congas would feature easy and precise tuning and the LP Classic Accent 11 3/4 Conga Richie Garcia Signature does not disappoint. For an added aesthetic touch the carved bands provide a look as bold as Richie Garcia?s playing style.
