I recently saw a Remo drum (Iīm pretty sure it was Remo...)that I canīt find on the website... Itīs a conga drum on top that turns into a floor tom at the bottom, that can be played with a pedal from underneath, with a reversed beater.

Can you help me to find this model?

Thanks!

Hi,

Thanks for your question regarding Remo Products. The drum you are referring to is the Kick Conga. This drum is now discontinued. There may be a few of them still in the market. It will take some research.

Best Regards,

Ryerby

I also played that drum on a store, I liked it a lot

An ethical sympathy in an artist is an unpardonable mannerism of style. No artist is ever morbid. The artist can express everything.

Thanks for the answer!

Although that wasnīt very encouraging... Iīm sorry to hear that this drum has been discontinued. It probably will be very hard to find it in Brazil. Iīll try...

Best regards,

Daniel

I had to come back to say something... I donīt understand why this Kick Conga has been discontinued... Itīs a great instrument and thereīs nothing else like it on the market. I know many people here in Brazil who would buy one if they had the chance.

Is there any good explication? Legal problems with Trilok Gurtu? Or it just didnīt sell enough?

Daniel
