The Bobby Allende Signature Fiberglass Bongos are outfitted with Remo Symmetry Fiberskyn heads that are unaffected by temperature and humidity and Low-Rider Crown Rims with a more pronounced downward slope for improved hand comfort.

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.

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.

In 2011 Pearl introduced the original Travel Congas and the portability of congas was changed forever. Rather than the traditional 28” height of a conga, Pearl’s Travel Congas features 3.5” deep wood shells that deliver maximum portability and sound. Like traditional congas they utilize stave construction and feature real size Quinto (11"), Conga (11.75") and Tumba (12.5") heads. Tuning the Remo Symmetry heads is effortless with five precision Allen tuning bolts and the included wrench. The shell is finished in #510 Caramel Brown. Matching Travel Bongos are also available.

Steel shells offered in the traditional Brazilian colors of bright blue, yellow and green. Shoulder strap included.

The “snare drum” played in Samba music is called the Caixa (Kai-sha).

Pearl’s Surdos are the bass voice and foundation of our Brazilian Percussion Line.

Pearl's line of Brazilian Percussion brings modern refinements and quality to the traditional Samba musician.

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.

Offered in the traditional Brazilian colors of bright blue, yellow and green for dynamic looks that will surely get you noticed where ever you play.

The Horacio Hernandez Signature Cowbells are available in 6 models of varying size and tonal characteristics.
