I have a couple of lod congas that need a little work so they are being sold as is. The 1st one is wood You could refinish or just leave her along throw some new hooks on her and jam away. I would recommend placing a bottom ring on it to prevent splitting and damage. 10.5 head 30" tall, Its very Cuban tumba shaped the 10.5 were the quinto/ conga/ tumbaroda size in the old days has a wide range of tuning options. The other is a fiberglass drum I believe its made by Royce needs hooks and a paint job, 11.75 28- 29 inches tall. I also have a little shorter drum which is like a Brazilian Atabaque drum listed. If interested please send me your phone number and I will call you.

Thanks, Juancho.

Israel.............these are also yours right?

[docarroyo]

Yes they are $450.00 and they are in really good condition. The quinto is older than the conga and heavier but match up pretty good. I'm also not far from NYC and could meet half way. The other two are sold, thanks
