This is the 12.5-inch version of the Pedrito Martinez signature model.

Independent shopping perspective
Pedrito Martinez’s 12.5-inch signature conga pairs a deep-cut mango shell in stained mocha with a handpicked rawhide head. The natural head and mango shell are described as producing a warm, responsive voice with complex overtones. Top-Tuning Comfort Curve II rims give access to the chrome-plated tension rods for fast adjustment, so tuning changes can be made directly at the drum. Shell protectors and reinforced side plates support the instrument’s stage and studio-oriented construction.
