Schlagwerk BC460 2inOne Booster Boxx Cajon

Descrizione

While it originated from a simple, empty box, the cajon has since grown into a fully fledged percussive instrument with a considerable family tree of variations. The Schlagwerk Booster Boxx is a giant version of the cajon and has been built to shape a nicely deep thump, the frequencies of which sit somewhere just above that of a standard kick drum, providing a solid bottom-end to any percussive set up. It's also been fitted with 40 spiral snares so that, just as with a standard sized cajon, complete dynamic beats can be played.

A Peruvian Box

Cajon is very literally the Spanish word for 'box', and the instrument we now know as the cajon, first originated in Spanish colonial Peru where, when their drums were taken from them, imported African slaves rebelled by beating out rhythms on crates instead. Now, the cajon is a popular instrument all over Peru and the rest of the world. What makes it so popular is that it offers a kind of complete percussive kit in one - giving you a kick, snare, and ghost-notes that serve as a kind of high-hat replacement. The cajon is also insanely practical, easily portable, and the instrument itself doubles as a playing stool.
