    Default Cajon drum

    Hi,
    After 3 years, it's time to change a new colour for my old cajon-drum.I choose white as the main colour.Replace the metal rim with wooden rim.also,change the 12" tom to 10".Looks better now!



    Regards,

    Dude that's sick! I have a traditional cajon. I can play it decently, but I haven't learned true hand drumming just yet.

    I think it's awesome how much can be done with a cajon, yours is a perfect example. How does it sound?

    Hi,22 drummer!
    I don't really enjoy the Cajon playing position(body bent!),and also sometime my finger feel uncomfortable(long hour & loud playing!).For this one, i use a short drum stick on left hand,a nylon blast-stick on right(hi-hat,tom,cymbals)i can sit with my back straight & Relax.It just sound like a drum! You still can do something like this for your present cajon.(1)keep the front "head" as kick-drum(remove the snare wire or string inside).add a 10" tomburine(with plastic head,remove all the "jingles" & add a short snare wire inside-10" mini snare)and attached it on your left position.you can attached a X-hat(closed hat) plus cymbals on the right hand position!

    Wow! that's a really cool looking cajon - so the cymbal on the side - is that just a regular splash played by hand?
    I've just got into cajon - got myself an LP Americana - but I want to add some cymbals fr effects - have an old splash and an old zildjian 16 inch - but neither sound too great with hand - though they do add weight with sticks - any advice on good hand cymbals for cajon?
