A family of instruments in his name
Bells are not the only LP instruments bearing Giovanni Hidalgo's name: there are also Galaxy Giovanni congas, bongos and a djembe, vintage-style Palladium congas, Prestige timbales and a Giovanni Compact Conga that won a MIPA award in 2003. This 8-inch bell carries on that line.
A low bell that supports
At 8 inches, the orange bell gives a full voice that can hold a pattern while smaller bells play on top. On the LP570GMT triple bracket, sold separately, it becomes the base of a three-pitch set. The memory lock saves you from hunting for the right angle at every gig.
