Alafia Abures Mi!
I hope that you are all well and abundantly blessed!

I've decided to part with my set of Patatos, (2- 12.5" tumbadoras, 1- 11.75" conga, and 1- 11" quinto.)

I'm asking for, oh let's see.........2 milllllllion dollars! mmmmmwahahaha!

Actually, I'm only asking for $1,000 + shipping. This will include the four drums, four LP bags, the handles which originally came with them, and 3 sets of conga feet, sorry...but the quinto's bottom is way too small to have accommodated them. I originally took the factory heads off of them and mounted genuine cowhide, which I purchased from Michel of Moperc several years ago. Aside from the black scuffs which come off of the bumpers of each drum, there are no gouges, or imperfections with these drums. I will make sure to clean the scuffs off. They actually sound incredibly good.

I'm posting this here, but I know how broke we all are and therefore will be totally surprised to get a bite. Please don't ask for me to break up the set of four, if I can't sell the set, then they are doomed to remain with me until eternity, yeah you read right......I will take them to the grave with me.......mmmmmwahahaha!

If interested, please PM me and I'll get back with you, and I mean that in a good way!

Stay well

Onile!

I played thos Patatos When I visited Onile a couple of years ago. Notice that the skins had been changed, which by the way looked great. I can also testify that they sound as good as they look :P .
Congratulations on your aquisition Cangrejo7.

Vaya hermano King Conga!
I hope that you are well and abundantly blessed!

I remember your visit out here, I had a blast with you and your cousin(?). Didn't you take some pics of you playing the LPs and the Ritmos as well?

Either way, we need to do it again, a Pernil, Arroz con Gandules, Ensalada ......ya me dio hambre!

Chevere Papa!

Suave!

@ Mr.Conga
Sorry ,for the very late reply, Things have been crazy and I havent been on here in a while
But the Barril was made by Ricky Soler in Mayaguez. He has a Facebook and his barrils usually go for 450more or less depending
