LP Classic Model Congas were the first wooden congas introduced by Latin Percussion. The shells are 30" long and made from three plies of Siam Oak with a reinforcing fiberglass layer added to the upper interior region for an extra amount of strength. The oak shells create a warm, round, earthy tone that congoseras have loved for years. Comfort Curve II rims are an adaptation on the traditional design, creating a rounder, wider edge that reduces hand fatigue and the potential for injury. LP Heart side plates and 5/16" tuning lugs keep the natural rawhide heads tuned under extreme pressure, and ProCare Shell Protectors keep the shells of your other congas safe from scratches from the tuning lugs. An accessory pouch, tuning wrench, and lug lube are included.
