My first conga drum is a restoration project with an original but now translucent head. I’ve now resorted my conga (Meinl, headliner range) to a working capacity, lots of glue and banding. So I went for this conga head, the ‘Thomann 11" Conga Head‘ and I’m not disappointed, I’m impressed, I have a working conga, great bass tones, great open and closed tones, a nice ring, I’m very happy with my choice, means I can practice at home away from the classroom, entertaining my neighbours with my progress… Thumbs up from me.
