These new congas from Meinl come in traditional sizes: 11" Quinto, 11 3/4" Conga, and 12 1/2" Tumba. Available colors are SNT (Super Natural), WR (Wine Red), and VSB (Vintage Sunburst).

The shell is made from two ply rubber wood (Hevea brasiliensis Muell.-Arg.) and the hand selected True-Skin buffalo heads provide a wide sound spectrum from voluminous basses to cutting slaps. The 2.5 mm black powder coated rounded SSR rims offer best possible playing comfort.
