In 2010 the company was purchased by Marshall Amplification.[1] Current line of Natal products include drum kits, hardware, and other percussion instruments such as bongo drums, congas, tambourines, cowbells and bar chimes.[2]

History

Natal was established in 1958, creating fibreglass Latin percussion that has been used by the likes of Led Zeppelin, The Rolling Stones and Santana.[3]

Natal had great success in the late 1960s thanks to its revolutionary

congas that was used by bands like Santana, T. Rex, Led Zeppelin, Fleetwood Mac, Deep Purple and The Rolling Stones.[4] In 2010, Natal was acquired by Marshall, which announced the purchase at the 2010 Musikmesse Exhibition.[3]
