New Pearl Congas and Bongos...Raymond?

[maelopr]

Caballoballo: yo toco congas con la Exclusiva...hace tiempito no vamos a Palo 11, en realidad no se q paso...tu sabes como es esto, no hay nada seguro. Pues sucede q tengo q tomarme 2 meses de vacaciones forzosas, voy a estar tomando unas clases de noche por cuestion de trabajo por lo tanto no puedo ir a ensayar, pero espero estar de vuelta full time con la orq.en marzo. Mientras tanto sigo picando si alguien me llama para algo en los wikens, ya tu sabes...

(During NAMM, we all participated in a "rumba" with the new congas and bongos in our Pearl's sound booth with Francisco Aguabella, Jesus Diaz, Eddie Montalvo, Marc Quinones, Bobby Allende, El Negro Hernandez, Fausto Cuevas, Cesar Espinosa, Eric Velez, Jesse Caraballo, Glen Caruba, Carlos Soto, Andres Bermudez and yours truly...I think Pearl will put the video in their site soon!)

Sounds great!!!

Please keep us updated with that Raymond! Me encantaria verlo.

Raymond, check out this link to a short clip of a project I was/am involved in here, some rumberos en Australia con mucha pasion!
Enjoy!

Tamboricua,

You could probably get it through a Pearl dealer and/or Pearl directly. Let me check what Pearl is going to do about it. I know they had plenty made and not all were picked up during NAMM. I'll check.

Saludos!

These congas and bongos are made of oak and have a lining of fiberglass inside.

Is this real oak or rubber wood "oak"? I am not trying to put these drums down just wondering.

I am getting some serious GAS from looking at these drums :p , west coast drums have them listed.

Those new pearl Bongos look just like the Toca 3900T Bongó. No wonder,they are made in the same factory. Just take a look at the toca.
