Why Woodwind & Brasswind ?

All of Luis’ specifications have been achieved with the MEINL Artist Series Luis Conte Signature Congas. They combine the charm and sound of the old traditional Cuban drums with modern features and innovations. The congas are equipped with traditional rims and are mounted as close to the shell as possible, and when combined with MEINL’s True Skin Buffalo Heads, enable an even more controlled sound and easier tuning.
