When playing the LP Giovanni LP826 conga, we realized that Latin Percussion created an instrument capable of shining both on stage and in the studio. With an exceptional sound definition, this instrument has already been distinguished by the industry and is part of the sound of award-winning records.
Measuring 11 3/4 inches in diameter, the LP LP826 conga has an Evans Tri-Center synthetic head, secured by an aluminum alloy hoop. It can be fitted to basket-style supports, or to the dedicated LP826M support, perfectly integrating a percussion set or drum kit.
The drum can be adjusted using an included drum switch, which allows you to reduce the sound for practicing at home or playing in smaller spaces, without drowning out other instruments.
Congas, in their non-compact version, resemble a djembé but, despite being descendants of this African instrument, they have a very characteristic sound, lower and warmer. Congas are played with the hands and are widely used in Latin American and Caribbean music.
Founded in the 60s by Martin Cohen to fill the lack of Cuban percussion instruments in the United States due to the trade embargo imposed by Washington, Latin Percussion is a brand recognized for its quality in the manufacture of professional-level percussion instruments, equipping some of the most famous percussionists on the planet.
The compact 11-inch 3/4 LP Giovanni LP826 conga demonstrates the care that Latin Percussion puts into manufacturing its instruments. Not only does it make itself heard, but it listens and collaborates with the renowned musicians who play them, so that they have the quality and innovation they need in each performance.
