LP Synthetic Conga Heads

D Gear Lust Web Site DGo To The Music Connection "New Toys" Directory

LP Music, makers of many styles of conga drums, offers synthetic conga heads manufactured by Evans. Synthetic heads, unlike animal skin, eliminate the effects of weather on the tuning of the drum. Tuning remains constant even under hot stage lights and while the drum is in cartage. Furthermore, the heads have a cleaner look and are said to have a "warm sound with a biting attack." Road tested all over the world, these new heads have received glowing praise by many players who love their durability and perfect fit. There are heads to fit all sizes of LP's conga lines such as the Matador congas as well as the extended collar drums such as the Galaxy and Giovanni series.

The Evans head is based on the proven Tri-Center conga head design with a triple-slit overtone control center that focuses pitch and reduces unwanted overtones. The textured finish has a feel of rawhide and the hoop design locks the head in place even under extreme high tension. Prices range from $64 to $80 depending on size. For much more about it, contact LP Music at 160 Belmont Avenue, Garfield NJ 07026. Call them at 973-478-6903 or Web to: www.lpmusic.com
