Tongue drums derive their name from the tongue shaped areas where you strike the instrument. The results are a cosmic blend of tones that are as much fun to hear as play. Pearl offers 6 Awakening Series Tongue Drums, three 8-note and three 9-note drums tuned to different pentatonic scales. A portion of the sales of Pearl's Awakening Series tongue drums are donated to The Rhythmic Arts Program. (TRAP) educates individuals with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities as well as typical young children, by embracing a unique methodology that encompasses rhythm as a modality to address basic life and learning skills as well as reading, writing, and arithmetic.

These tunable pandeiros have lightweight hardwood shells and flush rims with hook style tension rods. Each set of platinellas (jingles) include a traditional flat disc, giving the drums an authentic “chuck” sound. Both include a nylon carrying bag.

Designed in conjunction with one of today's premier percussionists, Marc's timbale set consists of standard 14" and 15" drums fitted with Remo Clear Ambassador heads, a double-braced tilting stand, and our top-selling PBL-30 Clave Block. The Polished Steel Timbale Shells have two inverse beads that not only add strength, but also produce a cutting "cascara" sound not hindered by normally outward facing beads. To further the "cascara" striking area, these timbales feature a 5-Lug design that is proportioned perfectly for maximum shell space with less lug interference. Tuning is a breeze with the top tuning lug design. This exclusive Pearl design cuts head-changing time in half. No more nuts and washers falling on the floor! Finally, the cowbell post features a Sympathetic Sound Dampening sleeve that keeps cowbells and blocks from ringing through the stand.

Bobby Allende is a mainstay in the New York Latin Music Scene and demands the best from his drums. His signature drums are fiberglass with no seams to inhibit vibration, which allows them to resonate freely for the full, rich sound that Bobby is famous for. The congas are 28 inches tall, fitting the traditional seated player perfectly while adding extra width to the base for added projection and stability. A matching set of bongos is also available. The Bobby Allende congas and bongos feature Remo Symmetry Fiberskyn heads for tuning stability and Pearl's Low-Rider crowns with a radical sloping edge that practically disappears under your hands for the comfort you have to experience to believe. If you demand excellence like Bobby, check out his Signature Fiberglass Congas and Bongos.

Pearl's 3000 Series Pro Conga Stand delivers on all the touchpoints needed by today's gigging percussionists.

The PC3000 accommodates any size conga and your drum will rest on three adjustable grippers that are designed to firmly hold your drum while protecting the finish.
