Gon Bops Alex Acuña Signature Congas

Special edition drums with the percussionist

Developed with Alex Acuña, these congas use a particular stave profile and rim contour, and they are the drums that carried the revived Gon Bops name back onto stages.

  • Hand Percussion

    Congas, bongos, djembes, cajons, timbales, frame drums, and the small instruments that live on a percussion table: tambourines, cowbells, shakers, and claves.

Made by

  • Gon Bops

    Mariano Bobadilla began building congas in Los Angeles in the 1950s and the drums became the West Coast standard in Latin jazz. The brand went dormant and was revived, now under Drum Workshop, with the original shell profiles reissued.
