LP's collaboration with Giovanni Hidalgo to create this line of congas has yielded a high-end design with a retro design that offers a warm, dance-like quality to the sound. The unique exterior bands are a visual callback to Palladium Dance Hall! This drum's shell is made of ash wood, with high-end Galaxy hardware. It comes with LP's extended collar Comfort Curve II rims and a hand-selected rawhide head.
