DESCRIPTION

The Lindo Cajon Drum – Made in Spain by skilled artisans

The Lindo Cajon can be played with a very light touch. You will hear with bright trebles and a powerful bass response. The cajon has a guitar string snare in a double V shape, which is easily adjustable without the need for tools – just use a coin! The Lindo cajon is finished with rounded edges, so as a result looks really smart. These also give the drum a very tactile quality. The drum is suitable for beginners, experienced and professional players.

The Lindo Cajon utilises Birchwood and Platanus Hispanica (London Plane), which is a native Spanish wood. The face, or tapa, of the cajon is made from birchwood. It has a bright appearance and provides a very responsive and snappy sound. Platanas Hispanica makes up the main body of the cajon. The Platanas Hispanica provides the deep and punchy bass tones and is a pleasing contrast with the light face of the Birch. On the back of the cajon we have the soundhole. Take a take a look inside to find four wound guitar strings. These strings form the v-shape snare which is heard when hitting the top part of the face of the cajon. They are extremely effective and pleasing to hear and can be adjusted with two screws on the underside of the cajon.

Tone and Technique

There is an array of tones which you can achieve when applying certain techniques to the face of the Lindo cajon. When playing the top part of the cajon, this produces the rattle effect of the snare drum. In order to emulate the low-end bass tone of a kick drum, use the palm of the hand, striking further down the face of the drum. Strike the sides of the cajon and you’ll achieve a different tone altogether akin to a tom drum. Use the fingertips for effective drum rolls, flurries and ghost notes. See the Lindo demo video to explore all the features of this cajon and see a full play through demo to hear what it sounds like. Like a drum kit in a box, so is brilliant for jamming with friends. Helps the player to keep time and great for practising drum patterns and beats.

    I was very pleased with the Cajon I received, it plays well and it looks very beautiful. The only problem I had was that there were some slight imperfections but the company were very helpful and got in contact with me right away and put me at ease. They also offered me a 12-month guarantee. Overall I am very happy with the Cajon and can’t wait to start playing on it!

    Used it a few times and also showed it to my buddy who is a drumming expert. We both agree it’s very well made and has a great sound.

    Fantastic bit of kit. After I came across the cajon whilst looking at bongos I really never knew what to think of it until I checked out some YouTube videos and was pretty amazed at what I was seeing. After a lite research I decided to go with the lindo as it seemed to have the best reviews of any in its price range and from what I have read it seems to be a waste of time going much bellow the £100 mark. On arrival I open it an was happy with the finish of the cajon, it’s not no Audrey Hepburn to look at but it’s pleasant but I think for the money it’s certainly satisfactory. Onto the sound:- the box has a nice tone to it, admittedly this is my first cajon but I do have a musical background and wouldn’t settle for rubbish. The bass has a nice low sound and the snares are pretty sharp and responsive. If this is your first cajon don’t get in a strop because you don’t sound like a master as soon as you get it out, this is a musical instrument and like any instrument it takes time to learn so just persevere, keep cracking an it will come with time but always helps if you have natural rhythm. If you buy this I don’t think you will be dissatisfied and this is a good choice for someone like myself setting out on a new quest in musical development. Enjoy

    Great product – good for child or adult. Nice sound, sturdy, doubles as a spare stool in the bedroom but also an integral part of the kids’ music sessions.

  8. Andrew Sharp

    Extremely pleased with this product. It looks good, and sounds great! Love the deep bass and different tones around the cajon. Looking forward to exploring all it has to offer.

  9. Owain J. Griffiths

    Sounds great – although I don’t know how it compares to cheaper cajons. Really nice tone to it, though. Also a very good finish to it so it looks great in the house.

  10. GT

    The sound is great, the wood looks good and it is a joy to play. I had a cosmetic issue with my Cajon, but it got speedily sorted out by the suppliers with a very speedy replacement. Helpful advice given also.
