The sound is perfectly balanced to project on the loudest stages while recording beautifully in the studio.The late Carlos Patato Valdez remarkable career and ground-breaking multi-conga technique has inspired countless drummers, percussionists, and music lovers. His contribution to Latin music includes a unique melodic approach to conga playing, and has enabled his legacy to live on through his music.
Played by professional congueros the world over, these fiberglass drums were developed in 1978 with Patato, who required tall drums with a wide belly and small bottom that could project deep bass tones and great volume without sacrificing crisp, high sounds.
