Here is a fat set of three Bauer congas that used to be for sale. (Sold from this blog)
These drums are some of the best production congas ever made, with incredible dry crisp slaps, and fat tones full of bass and no ring. They almost always came with very nice skins, that complement the material and shape of the drum.
You cant find a nicer set of congas, and these days, it would be very hard to find a set for sale, used or new.
The Brazilian Cedar is just about the nicest sounding material i have ever played. And due to the exchange rate these days, they are not available in the US, short of the remaining stock at
espiritodrums.com (tell Ken i said hello!)
They are 10.5, 11.5, 12.5" respectively with the traditional hardware (very cool). All three drum are said to be in near mint condition.
