They still make the woodcraft drums but from what I understand they are now made out of ash.

Those drums are woodcraft congas in older version. Todays are different and made of ash as pcastag said. I own new ones, my friend owns old ones and they are great sounding drums. I would also like to have those one day.

Hi , thank to Yours information and gentle words.
I have bought these congas many years ago , but I have never played a lot so I do not know so deeply their sound , but I can say that hardware and wood are very strong.
Sometimes I think to sell some of my congas , but I do not have so much courage!!!!!!!!!!!!
