Introducing the Jesus Diaz signature congas and bongos. The Cuban-born Diaz is one of the most in-demand percussionists and vocalists on the scene today. His active schedule inspired the feature set for his signature series.

Designed in collaboration with master percussionist Jesús Díaz, this Signature Series Conga set delivers powerful projection, rich tonal depth, and an unmistakably traditional feel.

Crafted from select Thai Oak, each drum produces a warm, resonant tone with excellent clarity and projection. A fiberglass inner coating further enhances articulation, ensuring crisp overtones and consistent response in any playing environment. The set includes Quinto, Conga, Tumba, and the newly added 14” Super Tumba, offering an especially deep and full low-end voice. Matching 7” and 8.5” bongos are also available to complete the setup.

Traditional chrome hardware provides a classic look and long-lasting durability, while Quick Release Lugs make head changes fast and effortless. Ergonomically designed hoops improve playing comfort and ensure optimal contact with the head collar for better tone and stability. Each drum is fitted with hand-selected premium buffalo skins, chosen for ideal thickness and natural tonal texture.

Finished in a striking Deep Blue with Coral Red stripes, and built to a traditional 30” playing height, the Jesús Díaz Signature Series is made for players who demand authentic sound, professional performance, and timeless style—on stage or in the studio.

Matching 7” and 8.5” bongos are also available.
