LP Giovanni Palladium Congas - 30th Anniversary Limited Edition

The LP Giovanni Limited Edition Palladium Congas harken back to the Palladium era, when robust and dark conga sounds echoed throughout one of New York City's most active dance halls. To look once at these drums is to understand the colorful Latin dance traditions.

Each Limited Edition 11" Quinto, 11-3/4" Conga, 12-1/2" Tumbadora and 14" Super Tumba wear proudly the exterior horizontal bands in the manner of old world instruments. Each LP Giovanni Palladium Conga features a 32" stature with a special profile for enhanced crisp slaps and emphatic low end. Each Giovanni Palladium Conga features specially selected natural rawhide heads, seated with an extended collar and LP Comfort Curve II rims, polished brushed nickel-as is all hardware in the series. The contrast between the brushed nickel and "rainbow" staves is unique in the industry. It evokes the electricity of frantic mambo shout choruses, ever-increasing in energy.

Something dear to Giovanni indelibly marks these as drums that resonate equally in his heart and his finger tips: The LP Giovanni Limited Edition Palladium Congas feature colored stripes that carry special meaning for the master. Viewed at a distance, they are a signal that any musician playing these congas is paying homage to the great Giovanni.
