MGR/Tommy Conte « Tama Octobans »
Published on 11/20/03 at 15:00I got the octobans from a dealer ship, AJ's pro Percussion. I got them for a christmas present, and I think they were about 70 $$$. I love the sond, so I asked for them.
I love the sound and look of this instrument. It is a high-piched but warm sounding quad of long, small-circumference drum. I also love how u can play that race horse song. Also, exellent mounting features
The only thing I didnt like about the octoban is that the drum heads are very hard to find. But, somehow I found them (i broke the previous ones out of my own neglagence).
Very high quality, and I have no clue how they are made.
Definatly money well spent. Another thing i love about the octobans is that u can integrate the sound into any environment, including punk to latin.
