[url=null]My Webpage[/url]Hi Folks,

I purchased almost a complete set of Volcano Percussion Ohi Monkeypod alternate mango conga drums from Tom Alexander the Maker. These drums are like purchasing a Bentley, Ferrari or Maserati of conga drums. I sent Tom this Thank You Card. Tom my Ohi Alternate Mango drums that I purchased at the 06 Namm Show were drop dead Gorgeous but my Quinto & Conga left me speechless. The Ohi alternate Mango drums are simply "Fit for a King" truly a work of Art. The Nameplates look Fantastic. There is definitely no statute of limitations on the Retro Vogue look over here. I can't say enough about these drums being Featherweight, Unbelievably Luxurious, and Beautifully Art Deco. The Remo Heads make the drums sing. When I played these drums for the first time, you can hear the drums talk to each other despite the sounds coming from the keyboards, Bass & guitar, and Drum Kit. Check out Angel the Killer Chihuahua protecting my drums @Volcano Percussion

Hello Congadelica
Mr. Thomas Alexander of Volcano Percussion has exceeded my expectations with these fine instruments. I had some special requests and he met every one of them. Dealing with Mr. Alexander was a pleasure. I have owned or played on just about every brand and these are the finest set of congas I have ever owned to date. I am totally happy with them. They are eye candy and ear candy for sure. I hope everyone enjoys the photos.

Aloha Mike,

I hope you are keeping dem tubs warmed up in that chillin' neck of the woods!! You are very blessed to own such fine made drums. They will bring you a life time of joy with every open tone, slap, heel/tip and muffle you deliver to them. Tom did a spectacular job on creating dem tubs for you.
Now all you gotta do is... Keep on Poundin' :laugh:

Aloha, Bro. Nol

Aloha Congadelica,

If i'm not mistaken there might be a forum member or two who own Vp drums in the UK. Maybe they might chime in here and invite you over to have a taste.

Keep on Poundin'... Aloha, maSSivdrums
