Detail 01
11.75 in.
Head size must match your shell diameter, not the rim. An 11 or 12.5 in. drum will not seat this.

Sale
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A single 11.75 in. replacement conga head from LP. For players re-heading an existing drum, not a first purchase on its own.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Replacing a worn or split head on an 11.75 in. conga
- Keeping a spare on hand for gigging percussionists
- Restoring an older LP conga to playable tension
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Anyone without a conga already — this is a part
- Drums measuring 11 or 12.5 in.
- Players wanting a tacked or pre-tuned drum
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Conga head
Cut and collared for conga rims and side plates. It will not fit bongo, djembe, or timbale hardware.
Detail 03
LP-made
Sized to LP shells and crowns, so seating and lug reach line up without modification on LP drums.
Detail 04
Sold as one head
Covers one drum. A conga pair or set needs one head per drum, each matched to its own diameter.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Measure your shell across the top before ordering, not the old head
- 02Hoop, side plates and lugs are not included
- 03Re-heading needs a tuning wrench and time to stretch and settle
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01What size conga does this fit?
An 11.75 in. conga. Measure the outside diameter of your shell at the top. If it reads 11 in. or 12.5 in., this is the wrong head.
02Does this come with hardware?
No. It is the head only. You reuse the existing hoop, side plates, lugs and tuning bolts from your drum.
03Can I put this on a bongo or djembe?
No. The collar and diameter are cut for conga rims. Bongos and djembes use different sizing and mounting.
04How hard is it to install?
Straightforward with a tuning wrench: pull the old head, seat the new one, tighten lugs evenly in a star pattern, then retune over a few days as it stretches.
