Logo Latin Percussion

Professional and amateur musicians around the globe have valued LATIN PERCUSSION instruments for decades as the finest percussion instruments in the world.

The company's history began in 1956 with Martin Cohen, a young engineer from the Bronx who discovered his love of Latin music in the jazz clubs of New York. He was so captivated by the sound and energy of these rhythms that he decided to get his own bongos, but this failed due to trade embargoes that made it impossible to import high-quality instruments from Cuba at the time. Without further ado, Cohen used his technical know-how to research and develop his own. The result soon became known as "the best bongos the world has ever seen."

A few years later, in 1964, he founded LATIN PERCUSSION (LP) and began supplying bongos, cowbells and other instruments to musicians in New York's Latin nightclubs, asking for their opinions. This close connection and the exchange of experiences with the artists* of the Latin music scene contributed and still contributes significantly to the success story of the LP brand. To this day, they are an integral part of the company's philosophy: the demands of the musicians come first.

LP®

From the beginning, LP®'s philosophy has been based on listening to artists, perceiving their needs and developing instruments according to their specifications and in close collaboration.

And these names must be mentioned.

The upper class of Latin Percussion gathers signature models of world-famous musicians in unrivalled quality and inimitable individuality. From the choice of wood to the sound shaping and finish-design, these instruments reflect the spirit of their namesakes, some of whom are legendary. No one knows better what good sound means.

For them: no compromises. Only LP®.

Galaxy Giovanni

Throughout his moving career, master conguero Giovanni Hidalgo has given the world a new perspective on drumming. And LP® a new perspective on drum design.

High-quality woods, perfectly crafted, finished with first-class hardware and strung with hand-selected natural skins. The result of this masterful work is a sonic combination of resonance, attack and warmth that is second to none. Sovereign basses meet rich mids and crisp highs, with a projection that no one can miss.

Giovanni Hidalgo's style and commitment to excellence are reflected in every instrument that bears his name.

Classic Series

In 1972, after years of development, LP® was finally able to present the first wooden conga of its own manufacturing: the world-famous LP® Classic Conga. To this day, it represents the industry standard against which all other congas are measured against worldwide.

The LP® Classic-Congas consist of three lplies of high-quality wood with an additional reinforcement of fibreglass and are of course available in the popular sizes Quinto, Conga and Tumba.

In addition to the original models, variants with top tuning hardware are also available, where the hand-selected natural heads can be conveniently tuned from above.

The beautiful uni-colour or vintage sunburst looks with the standard chrome-plated hardware are also classic. A natural wood model with gold hardware is available as a special eye-catcher.

LP® - a classic for decades.

The LP® Junior Series congas are small, easy to transport and surprisingly powerful.

The shells, which are only 15" high and covered with high-quality natural skins, sound like a combination of bata drum, bongo and conga, are clearly defined and have a distinct projection despite their small size.

The sets include two instruments, each with 8" and 9" diameters, and are available in natural and wine red finishes.

With their professional, chrome-plated hardware features, such as the Comfort Curve®II rims or the double-braced, height-adjustable stands, they are a great addition to any percussion or drum set-up and also cut a fine solo figure.
