Let Toca become a part of your life.There’s something about a drum. It’s nearly impossible to walk past one and resist the urge
to hit it. It’s instinctual. It’s natural. It’s primal. Pick up a drum and keep a beat and you’ve
instantly started your journey into musicianship. The longer you continue on that journey,
the more satisfying the experience and the more you appreciate the rich rewards that
drumming delivers.
Toca makes drums that beg to be played. It doesn’t matter if you’ve been playing
for years or if you’re just getting started—when you play a Toca drum,
it instantly becomes one of the best parts of your life.

and head combination produces high, crisp slaps
and deep bass tones allowing a wide range of
playing styles.
Freestyle II Djembes
A protective non-slip rubber bottom makes the Freestyle II perfect for
outdoor drumming. The 14-inch djembe includes a durable carrying bag.

facilitators valuable space and transportation expenses. Educators and physical therapists

New Triple Conga CajonToca introduces a revolutionary new
instrument that is both versatile and
delivers great sound. The Triple Conga
Cajon is a chambered fiberglass bowl-
shaped drum with a 14-inch diameter
Parawood head that is divided into
three sections, each capable of

three classic conga tones—low, mid-
range and high.

allow complete control over volume
and intonation, making it an ideal
drum for cramped “unplugged” gigs
where a set of congas simply will not
fit. The Triple Conga Cajon comes with
a height-adjustable stand and is a
must-have addition to any drummer or
percussionist’s collection.T-TCC
