A cajon inspired by a percussive tradition... with an educational touch
Born from Afro-Peruvian music, the cajon has established itself as an essential percussion instrument thanks to its simplicity, portability, and great expressiveness. This model captures the spirit of the modern cajon (deep sound at the center, sharp at the edges, "snare" effect via internal cables) while adding a blackboard-style front panel: a playful and visual approach that naturally integrates into learning, workshops, and group activities.
For whom? A cajon designed to learn, lead, and play anywhere
This "blackboard" cajon is especially aimed at beginners who want to memorize rhythm basics, teachers and music school instructors, as well as percussion workshops (children, teens, adults) where time is saved by writing instructions directly on the instrument. It is also suitable for traveling musicians looking for a compact and creative cajon for rehearsals, musical awakening, or acoustic sessions.
The customizable front allows writing rhythmic cells, markers (1-2-3-4), sequences of strokes (bass / slap), or even playing ideas. As a result, the instrument becomes both an educational tool and a surface for expression, without losing the essentials of a cajon: direct striking, stable seating, and an effective percussive sound.
