WE SHIP WORLDWIDE

Our instruments are conceived under two main purposes: To get the best sound and to improve all the other key features of an instrument: Durability and lightness. Thanks to high technology methods, to the expertise in the manufacturing with Carbon Fiber and to the musical knowledge of our team, we have accomplished both goals: incredible sounds in surprisingly light instruments with a lifetime guarantee.

[ C A J O N ]

Full Carbon Fiber Body and Head 

Dim.: 470 x 320 x 320 mm 

Weight: 3.200 gr.

Due to the possibilities of our techniques on Carbon fiber, our cajon features a unique curved back. This brings a whole set of advantages: It makes the sound waves travel longer inside the cajon before leaving the body, enhancing the depth of its bass notes. It gives a significantly wider sitting surface for the player without waisting material on the lower part. It also improves the sonic options of this amazing piece of art, in which upper surface you will find conga-like sounds, achieved in a very conformable way due to its soft curved design.

[ B A L L O N   U D U   D R U M ]

Full Carbon Fiber made 

Dim.: 320mm diameter x 435mm height 

Weight: 1.500 gr.

Our Udu drum is probably the star of the party. Udu drums have always had two very inconvenient features: They are heavy and most of all, they are extremely fragile. But not anymore. Our Udu drum is making a huge impact in the industry since it solves both problems: It is very light and you could throw it out the window without damaging it. Nothing to add!

Full Carbon Fiber made

Dim.: 380mm diameter x 140mm height

Weight: 1000 gr. 

Light and resistant as her sister the Balloon Udu Drum, the Turtle Udu offers a more horizontal surface to play on, a slightly higher pitch bass note with a beautiful sustain and shiny crystal clear high tones performed in the body. A tabla-sounding device in the "tail" makes this Udu drum unique in this field, competing only with her sibling.

Carbon Fiber Body and " Confort Rim - Top tuning"
 

Djembe 14"

Height: 620 mm 

Weight: 3.850 gr.

Our Djembé has a unique feature that makes it stand alone in the market: The tuning lugs are internal!! This has two positive consequences: the lugs won't make the body suffer in case of a drop of the instrument and the design can't get more elegant, since visually all you see is the unaltered carbon body. Also, this djembe is way lighter that a traditional djembé. which makes it the best option for self carrying amateurs and for traveling professionals.

[CONGAS]

Full Carbon Fiber Body and Rim 
"Carbon Comfort Rim - Top tuning" 

CONGA 11,75"

Height: 750 mm 

Weight: 5.500 gr. 

 

TUMBA 12,50" 

Height: 750 mm 

Weight: 6.100 gr.

Our congas weight around 1/3 of a standard conga drum. In other words, with the effort other brand users do to carry one single drum, a Carbono Instrument player could carry three!! But there is another feature that our team designed to make your live easier: our "Top Tuning" system with which you can tune the drum from above. This is very convenient for any player since it avoids the need of turning the conga to reach each one of the lugs, but its a great news for those who use the congas on stands. Also, when it comes to changing the heads, our "hands up" System allows taking the old head and placing the new one without having to separate de tuning lugs from the rim!! This makes changing heads super fast.

100% Carbon FIber Body, Lugs and Rims

Measures: 7 1/4" + 8 5/8" 

Weight: 2.500 gr.

The Carbono Instruments Bongo is a 100% carbon fiber instrument that combines all the advantages of this high technology material, such as durability and lightness, with the best acoustic qualities of tradicional bongo. Body, lugs and core are one only piece, which gives it an incredible sturdiness. The rims are as well, completely made out of carbon fiber. 

This piece of art weights less than 2.5 kg (5.5 pounds), which makes it an amazing tool to travel around with, and the best performing partner, since its feels light and friendly to hold, while traditional bongo´s weight is an issue when its played between the legs. The tuning system, operated from above, provides a great convenience when tuning or changing heads. 

These bongos come with carbon fiber heads made by Carbono Artisan Instruments, and are standard sized ( 7-1/4", 8-5/8"), compatible with standard Remo heads. 

The bright, yet warm and powerful sound that comes from this amazing instrument is perfect both for live performances and studio work, and its durability and lightness makes it the best partner out there.

[SNARE DRUM]

100% Carbon fiber Body, Lugs and Rims 

 

Measures: 14" x 5.5"

Weight: 2.150 gr.

This amazing carbon fiber snare drum is a 14"x 5.5" drum, made 100% out of carbon fiber. 

The look is outstanding, not only because both shell and hoops are entirely carbon fiber, but because the lugs are "blended" in the shell. This has several very positive consequences. First, the resistance of the drums is immense, not only for the amazing natural mechanical qualities of carbon fiber, but also because there is no chance of pieces getting old with time and getting detached from the shell since the lugs and tensors are literally part of the shell!. 

Second, the shell is not perforated to add the lugs, since lugs and shell are all one piece, with all the sound advantages that a one piece shell implies. 

Third, the look. It´s lugs, built in the shell, gives an impressive sinuous ending to this drum, making it absolutely one of a kind. 

Another outstanding characteristic of this drum is it´s weight: less than 2kg (4.4 pounds). With the Carbono Instruments technology, the era when high quality was linked to heavy weights is over. 

The sonic qualities of this drum are the bright and articulate sound, with big projection and great snare sensibility. It´s a very versatile drum, that works fluently on low and mid tuning ranges, and absolutely shines when you crank it up, giving a very cutting edgy dry sound on high tuning situations. The cross stick sound is cutting and warm. 

This snare drum is a piece of art, only meant for those looking for something beyond standard.
