The container is in Charleston, S.C. waiting to be cleared by customs!

Good news! The container is almost here! It should arrive in Charleston, S.C. on Oct 20th! Then of course it has to clear US Customs and be transferred to a truck. So we are expecting it mid week! We will post its arrival on the website as soon as it is in.

New Shipment from Ghana! We just received a shipment of 12 conga shells, 30 dunun bells and 15 large gankogue bells, also known as metal agogos.
The congas are large and solid. I took a picture of Sandy, who is 5″6″, beside the shells to give you an idea of how big they are. They weigh between 22 – 30 lbs. The larger ones measure approximately 12½” x 29″. The smaller ones are approximately 11″ x 27½”. These shells cost $180.00 plus 3 rings $15.00, box, and shipping. These are not in the shopping cart area so call or email if you are interested. Bells are regular stock and are in the shopping area.
