Hello congaplace,
This is a mini requinto,from pearl corporation,Afro Percurssion,from the 90's.Solid staves ( probably rubber wood),rubber base for more confort,tradicional rims and 8mm tunning lugs.
Is a 8 requinto,very light and solid.I put some top notch skins from Germany(thanks Mike for the tip)from Banux companny.2mm white cow skin.

Now that looks like a great little drum as it were, Joazinho! :)
I am glad the people at Banux found you a very nice skin, the people
there know what they are doing!
That requinto has got a really cool old-skool sound, congrats, brother! 8)
Wait until you have cranked it up even higher...

Thanks Mike.I live in Bretagne,finistere.Is beautifull,but sometimes the atlantic climat can be a challenge,not the best place to raise your drums :mrgreen:

Thanks king conga! This drum is so small but he project almost like a big one,perhaps the solid staves give him a nice clear voice.
