Things keep getting better and better for the affordable, rich sounding
Aspire series from LP. Now we’ve applied traditional LP innovation
to the realm of aesthetics. The result is one of the most beautiful
finishes to adorn any conga or bongo.
We’re proud to bring to the LP Aspire
line a striking new look:
the LP Aspire Scarab, a multi-faceted finish that combines contemporary
and ancient design components. The new Scarab finish focuses on an
intertwined motif depicting an unbroken series of Scarab beetles—insects
considered sacred by the ancient Egyptians and figuring highly in their
art and mythology. Symbolizing eternal life the Scarab was said to
be sacred and has been found in stone, in sculptures, on amulets, and
aligned as picture borders and in lieu of marquetry on fine furniture.
On LP Aspire Congas and Bongos, the Scarab bands intersect upper and
lower panels of glistening black lacquer. The contrast of the motif
against maple center band is rivaled only by the juxtaposition of mirror
chrome against jet-black lacquer.
The new look now adorns special sets of LP Aspire Series Congas and
Bongos. The finish is exotic and fascinating, new to the world of drums.
The new Scarab is available on select combos of LP Aspire Congas and
Bongos.Congas stand 28" tall and come in head combinations of
10" and 11". Drums are fitted with fine rawhide skins, topped
with EZ Curve Rims, which minimize hand trauma. Conga sets come with
a sturdy, chromed double stand, fully-adjustable. To complete the ensemble,
we’ve
including matching bongos. Even the snaking tuning rods are aesthetically
in harmony with the curved Scarab lines.
The LP Aspire line has always featured great sounding drums and fabulous
finishes. The Scarab finish, however, is an example of LP bettering
itself…especially when you see the low price!
