The LP Uptown Conga is designed to demand your attention in more ways than one. Its siam oak shell is slightly thinner than most adding more cutting top-end presence to its natural sound. A hand-selected natural rawhide skin provides a full-bodied slap sound while the Comfort Curve II hoop is kind on hands – and your tuning. An outer ply of sculpted ash has been added along with an eye-catching ebony stain so complete an outstanding conga thats a treat for both the eyes and the ears.
About Latin Percussion From the moment he first stepped foot into New Yorks famous Birdland jazz club in 1956 Martin Cohen fell in love with Latin Jazz music. An engineer by trade when he discovered authentic Cuban percussion instruments could not be imported to the USA Cohen began designing and building his own. In 1964 Latin Percussion (LP) was officially born and in the fifty years since has become a household name for professional percussionists seeking the very best quality instruments with a little visual flare to boot. LPs products have featured on many of the most recognisable recordings in the world across a whole span of genres. With a staggering range of models from bongos and congas to cowbells and shakers and even hardware and accessories Latin Percussion is one of the worlds most trusted percussion brands.
