Frequently Asked Questions
Will this head fit congas other than LP Aspire models?
No. The LPA640B is designed exclusively for LP Aspire 11" congas with the EZ Curve Rim and will not fit drums from other manufacturers or other LP series.
Is this head made from synthetic or natural material?
It is made from natural rawhide, which produces the warm, resonant tone traditional in conga drumming.
Does the head come pre-tucked or does it need to be stretched and seated?
The head is pre-cut and sized for the 11" Aspire hoop. You mount it onto the drum's EZ Curve Rim and tension it with the lugs as you would any standard conga head replacement.
How does rawhide respond to humidity and temperature changes?
Natural rawhide is sensitive to moisture and temperature. The head may tighten in dry conditions and loosen in humid environments, so periodic re-tuning is normal.
