"Great Conga Set!"

I am new to playing the conga drum, although I am not new to playing percussion instruments. These drums sound great, are easy to tune and sound dynamic in the musical mix. Whether they're miked or not, the sound is distinctive and heard in the mix, even in loud bands. I love the sound and the response! I recommend these congas at any level.

"Pearl conga bongo set"
My kids got this set for me for Father's Day and I must say this is a great product. High quality and a strong stand with a solid bongo attachment. Sound is fantastic and the grey color is all class. This is the set to buy if you are looking for a quality product at a great price.

"Great set for the money!"

Sound
For the prices, the sound is fantastic when properly tuned to pitch utilizing a tuner. The ports on each of the congas are tuned to "E". I tune the 11" head to "G" and the 10" head to "C" prior to play. The bongos are also tuned to a specific whole higher note before each play. The whole set becomes very musical and the fiberglass bodies produce a very loud efficient sound which allows the player to go easier on their hands to achieve equal volume when compared to a traditional wood set. Service and delivery from zzsounds was great!
Features
Kit included a quality tuning wrench and pouch.
Quality
Product is well made. Only area for possible improvement might be a bit stronger stand to support the weight of the congas and bongos, but as delivered, should prove adequate for normal use.
Value
Great buy for the price!
