Standing 28" tall, the Salsa Conga by Latin Percussion is designed to accomodate congueros who prefer to play seated. The shell contour is similar to LP Classics, with a slightly wider bottom which helps to stabilize the drum. Featuring a Siam Oak shell for punchy and bright tone, the projection and strength of this drum is enhanced by a fiberglass layer on the interior. This shape also adds to the drum's low and mid-range tones.
