Meinl MCC1134SNT-M Conga Classic

This is the first set of congas I've bought (matching Conga & Quinto), so I'm not an expert, but they look stunning in natural wood, are exceptionally well-made, with very high quality hardware and to my ear and that of a highly experienced drummer friend, sound great, with the scope to be tuned up or down, with a higher pitch easier to get a good sound from as a beginner. Thomann offered the best price by some margin and they were delivered promptly to the UK, with excellent communications throughout the delivery process.
