MEINL Sammy Garcia Signature Conga - 11 in. Pearl Grey

What happens when a conga is designed to sing as melodically as it grooves? The MEINL Sammy Garcia signature conga brings the La Conga Melódica concept to life through a 12" tumba built from premium fiberglass and topped with a True Skin buffalo head for an expressive tonal pairing with Garcia’s 11.75" design. A respected percussionist known for blending deep Afro-Caribbean tradition with melodic, song-driven playing, Sammy’s approach is reflected in the instrument’s balanced voice and musical response. Strong 10 mm tuning lugs, rounded 4 mm SSR rims and chrome-plated hardware reinforce a traditional feel with modern durability. Each conga includes Meinl conga savers, a conga handle, soundpads, an accessory pouch, an L-shaped tuning key and tune-up oil to support consistent setup and long-term care.
