Hello Rhino, nice drums.
Other than the 28" height, at first sight this does not appear to be an LP Matador.
It has the Generation II comfort Curve rim from the classic model.
The side plates are not the Matador "horned" type - rather they are from the classic model.
The logo plate is the "Classic" conga plate.

Good day guys!

The red conga is a LP original fiberglass model LP259X-1. The Confort Curve II Rim is standard in the LP classics, LP Salsa Models, LP patatos, and LP Original fiberglass Models. The logo was standard on all those models (with the exception of the LP Patatos) until maybe two or three years ago, since then the logo has change.

!Que viva la música!
