Pearl's Folkloric line of congas feature a traditional look with modern innovation that only Pearl can deliver. Each 28” tall Oak drum is designed for the “seated” player, but includes stand mounts for players who prefer to stand. Thicker South American-style natural skin heads make the drums warm-sounding, but a fiberglass gel coating on the interior seals the shell and add the projection and volume desired by today’s players. Four Polished Steel Reinforcing Bands are inset on the shell for a smooth touch, and the traditional hoops complete these stunning Cuban instruments.

The Havana Series Conga set is available in a Quinto, Conga, and Tumba, with a matching set of bongos also available. Most modern conga belly circumferences measure 42” at their widest, while these fiberglass shell congas feature a Cuban-style width, with the Quinto, Conga, and Tumba waist lines measuring 48”, 50”, and 52” respectively, to give these drums a very deep and dynamic punch.The drums come standard with Pearl’s Contour Crown Rims, premium plated hardware, rubber shell guards, and Pearl’s exclusive Self-Aligning Washer System for effortless tuning.

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.

The Quick Release Double Stand gets it name for the quick mounting mechanism that allows congas to be mounted in seconds. The Pearl PC-300W Quick Release Double Conga Stand is a lighter weight version of the PC-3000TW. The PC-300W is Pearl's lightest double conga stand designed for percussionists who like to play in a standing position and are concerned about the weight of their gear. The mounting bracket on your Pearl congas rest on the pins at the top of the stand and the weight of the drums holding them in place. The wide, double braced tripod base provides a solid foundation without taking up too much room on stage.

This versatile conga stand fits all makes of congas and most djembes. The PC-900 is height adjustable to accommodate players for standing or sitting and can be tilted for different playing positions. The stand folds compactly for easy transport and features a quick-release strap to hold your conga or djembe securely while playing.
