The Toca Eric Velez Signature Series congas deliver a captivating blend of tradition and modernity. Crafted in collaboration with renowned percussionist Eric Velez, these congas are designed for nuanced playability and visual impact. The shimmering Rojo Arándano Glitter finish adds spectacle, making a statement on any stage.

Premium Design and Craftsmanship

Showcasing premium Asian oak staves and classic conga design, the Toca Eric Velez congas honor traditional handcrafting techniques. Eric Velez's signature blurring style demands a sensitive, controllable drum that can play quietly or loudly. These congas meet his exacting standards, allowing subtly expressive playing. The hand-selected Siam oak produces rich, resonant tones with ample projection. Classic conga proportions provide familiar feel and response for any player.

Stunning Finish and Appointments

The dazzling Rojo Arándano Glitter finish makes a bold visual statement on any stage. The rich, cherry-colored lacquer is flecked with iridescent glittering particles for a shimmering, holographic effect under the spotlight. Distinctive appointments include Eric's signature engraved on the shell and his symbol embossed on the buffalo hide drumheads. A complement of sleek Rose Gold lugs, rims and mounting bracket complete the modern-meets-vintage aesthetic of this spectacular conga.

Versatile Tone for Any Genre

Eric Velez's signature blurring style fuses Afro-Cuban and Latin jazz techniques, demanding versatile drums. These congas deliver, with tones ranging from open and resonant to sharp and articulate. Play lightly for mellow tones or aggressively for cutting projection. The Asian oak construction and traditional proportions generate a balanced timbre suited for any genre from salsa to fusion. Use the Toca Eric Velez congas to craft your unique sound.
