Congabongodrum.com is proud to a to announce their new line of Tycoon Percussion gear. I was a little cautious at first with my decision to take on the Tycoon line ,but after a while I discovered the fine quality that goes into each product. Last Namm show they were sited as the Company to watch out For.Also in my estimation it give you the best bang for your buck. Most all of the Congas come with their own stand right there you have about an $80 savings. Check it out. Maybe the reason is they own their own factory in Thailand (high quality control from beginning to end, high quality at low cost). They have been a OEM dealer for 26 years (they make percussion products for other companies) Check it out on http://www.congabongodrum.com/tycoon-Percussion
