11.00 11.75 and 12.5

If you are lucky to find vintage such as SOS they will run slightly bigger

My Delaportes:

10.8" + 12.2" + 13"

Somewhat odd sizes, but they fit together perfectly IMHO.

11 3/4, 11 3/4, 12 1/2. conga conga tumba. That is the norm now with popular music. Rumba is another thing and quinto conga tumba set would be nice to jam with friends. But everybody has their own opinion

To join my 13.25", soon to come are 11.75" and 12.5" Mopercs, with thick cow skin for traditional dry deep thump sound. :D If I had the budget for it, I would add another 13.25", and either 10" or 11". I enjoy tumba, and rumba solos.
