About this item

HANDCRAFTED IN AFRICA – This Classic 11" Quinto Conga is hand crafted in Africa by village cultural artisans supported by the non-profit Africa Heartwood Project. This line of carved, rope tension, cow skin congas by Africa Heartwood Project add a whole new dimension to Afro-Cuban, Latin, and Congolese drumming.
SOLID ONE PIECE CONSTRUCTION - Hand carved out of a single piece of Mansonia wood and headed with unprocessed, thick cow skin, with oversize dimensions.Our 11"X28" carved conga drum is about the size of a standard Conga. It produces a warm, full bass sound, strong open tones, and clean, crisp, high slaps - right out of the box.
FULLY TUNABLE ROPING SYSTEM – Features a fully tunable roping system using the Mali weave. These Classic Carved Congas are also much more comfortable to play thanks to the thick, rounded bearing edges and dropped tuning rings. Additionally, a rope handle is securely attached to make transportation easier.
READY TO PLAY RIGHT OUT OF THE BOX - After import from Africa, each musical instrument is cleaned, inspected, tuned, and played individually to check sound and quality.
SUPPORTING COMMUNITY AND TRADITION – Our musical instruments and accessories are unique. All our products are hand-crafted in Africa by village cultural artisans. Each purchase contributes directly to Africa Heartwood Project, supporting the livelihoods of communities in Africa. This non-profit, run by passionate volunteers, fights poverty and promotes community development in West Africa. Your choice makes a difference, blending the joy of music with social impact.

I really don't like the fact they cover this (and all of their drums) with logos. The drum head came with a large logo on it. I wouldn't have bought it had I known that. They also put a large logo on the side of the drum.The entire reason to buy this product is that you want something authentic to Africa. Really disapppointed in how comercial it is.
