Curious about Akbar and Sol Percussion whether he will ever start making congas again. Must be an agreement with Gonbops and a non-compete clause however there normally is a time limit associated with such an agreement. Or, there are no plans and he is working on other projects which is understandable--people do tend to move on.
Anybody else curious or have some insight.
thx, Marcus

Hello.
I only know he worked a while for LP then, designing (and making ?) two Valje LP bongó, one out of oak and one out of mahogany.
http://www.lpmusic.com/products/bongos/lp/valje-oak-bongosThe mahogany model seems to have disappeared from the site.

Ijust sold some congas to a guy who works with Akbar. I was told he is OK doing what he is now doing and has no plans to do anything else now.
