Set of 2 or 3 Isla Percussion congas for sale. They sound great and have no issues. No cracks or problems whatsoever. I would keep them but I have to make room for some Junior Tirado drums coming through :) $650 each or 1800 for the set. Buyer pays all shipping costs.

Here is a very short sound demo I made of me playing the Isla Percussion conga and tumba. I will do one of all three later:

Mike, what kind of wood are those drums made of? What do you think about the sound; kind of sounds like a soft boomy tone.

It's Canoe wood (spelling?) There are a bunch of old posts about the wood here on the forum if you do a search. I think the sound is fantastic, I might not have done a good job recording them. Here is the tumba being played with a Volcano quinto:http://youtu.be/S6vAVf2n3q4
