Vintage Cuban Conga
Posted: Tue Jan 26, 2016 8:20 pm
Hi to everyone.
This Conga is my ongoing project. Bearing edges and 2 cracks on barrel has been fixed.
The skin is in good condition and has been re-positioned to correct shape together with skin hope.
The hardware is in process of re-chroming.
I'm not expecting to hear any big name of original maker but any input will be appreciated. It is fortune to know that barrel is done 30-35 years ago from Caoba.
That was god reason for me to finish it in Schellak. Old fashion, long process, but it's worth.
I will follow up once completed.
