Each one of our Gon Bops instruments delivers legendary quality and
innovative design. It's a tradition we've been proud of since 1954!

Gon Bops hardware is second-to-none when it comes to advanced design, heavy-duty durability and smart features. Like the patented push-lock design and mega-tripod base on our Conga, Bongo and Timbale stands.

Smart Gon Bops design protects wood and hardware on our drums by extending the back plate to strengthen areas under stress. Also eliminates the need for cup washers, allowing for greater tuning range and longer hardware life.

Gon Bops California Top Ring design means less pressure on wood and hardware, less effort required to tune drums. And the traditional Gon Bops Teardrop Top Ring design delivers vintage quality and feel.

Gon Bops Cajons are constructed from solid hardwood using advanced carpentry techniques like dovetail joints. Maximum attention to detail is built into every single instrument we manufacture.
