Popular LP Requinto Now Available In Fiberglass

Something special happens to a conga when you reduce the head size to 9-3/4" and give it a properly contoured belly. What you get is a requinto, a distinctive higher voice in the conga family. It's Giovanni's personal favorite-sized drum!

Wood Rim Tambora Provides Authentic Pulse Of Merengue

The new LP Wood Rim Tambora combines the best of both worlds. It retains the tone and shell of traditional tamboras, yet with the help of modern technology it features a specially select, kiln-dried, wood covered rim, set over a steel hoop for enhanced durability.

World Beat Pleneras By LP

In creating World Beat Pleneras, LP drew inspiration from the plena, a popular music form of Puerto Rico. The drums are available in three sizes and are constructed from sturdy lightweight wood construction, tunable calf heads (tuning wrench included), and steel rims, top and bottom.
