Product Description

The Schalloch Cajon can add color to your acoustic gigs with exotic bass, tom and snare tones. The cajon, (box in Spanish) which is traditionally used in Cuban and Peruvian folk music, has lately been gaining acceptance in the world music community for just this kind of versatility. Schalloch's cajon has a front playing surface made of 4/5"-thick Asian ash that produces warm bass tones and sharp slaps. Tension screws allow you to adjust the face for varied slap sounds. The main cajon body is made of Siam oak which creates a strong shell with good projection. The strong rubber feet keep your cajon off the floor for freer shell resonance and also serve to keep the drum from sliding as you play..

5.0 out of 5 stars An Extraordinary Instrument, January 28, 2006

This is a great instrument for small crowds, mostly acoustic playing. The whole instrument itself is very sturdy, so you have no worries about it break. It comes with four strings, which can easily be tightend or losend with a tool that comes with the Cajon. The noise is very clear and sounds great.

The bass is louder than I expected which is a plus. Also the wood, is hard, but not hard enough where it is going to hurt your hands while your playing. I use this for worship time doing bible studies, and it works great and can keep an excellent beat. It has a grooved surface at the top of the cajon, so when you sit on it, your not going to slip off. So if your looking for a cajon just to use for fun, or small groups, this is one to choose.

This product has a great sound and look. I am not anywhere near to being called a musician but I thought the quality was pretty good, in fact it was better than what I had expected. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to begin playing the cahon, or who just wants one to practice on.

This is my first cajon and I do like it a lot. It has a few over tones I can't seem to get rid of. But I do enjoy it quite a bit :)
