ATTENTION!

From Cajón-Spain, we recommend using a specially sized case for this drum box model. Among our catalog, we offer the Special Width case and the Camouflage PRO case.

This cajon features two íons (interchangeable heads), one on each side, allowing you to choose from any of our range (Cuban, Kenyan, Guinean, Turkish Blue or Green, or Peruvian Birch).

We’ve pushed the percussive capabilities of this instrument to the limit with a triple resonance chamber design, isolating the sound of each individual element.

Thanks to these independent resonance chambers, the íons produce a quick, clean response without sound interference. This design allows for more percussion surfaces, more interaction between highs and mids, and expanded possibilities.

The corners of the cajon are rounded (ergonomic edges), ensuring a secure strike and preventing injury. It also features non-slip feet for enhanced security and stability while playing.

Like all +íon cajons, the bass response is deep and powerful, thanks to its larger structure compared to conventional cajons and the bass output enhancer.

Finally, the cajon comes with a manual double-string tuning system, with two strings on each side (a total of 4 strings) for precise tone control. Additionally, it includes an innovative string sensitivity technology developed by us, ensuring the strings are correctly tensioned and properly touching the plate, guaranteeing an optimal sound response and excellent sound quality.

Faceplate: Chen-chen

Chen Chen wood, also known as Samba or Ayous, is a tropical wood native to Africa, primarily from countries like Cameroon, Ghana, Ivory Coast, Nigeria, and Gabon. It is valued for its quality, visual appeal, and acoustic properties.

This cajón model is exclusive, as the Chen Chen wood used comes from a tree that underwent a mutation, resulting in a different grain pattern compared to regular Chen Chen. This variation is rare and difficult to work with, making this cajón even more special. For this reason, we have a limited number of Duo Chen Chen cajons available until stock runs out.

The front plate offers excellent sensitivity to the touch, with a quick response that allows for a wide range of dynamics. Its resonance and sound projection are exceptional, with both deep bass and bright highs standing out.

In terms of aesthetics, its veined and mottled pattern, ranging from pale yellow to light brown, gives it a unique, warm, and powerful appearance. This pattern extends beyond the front plate, reaching the seat of the cajon. It is an ideal choice for musicians looking for an instrument that will stand out visually on stage.

Material

100% Birch plywood body, 6.5 to 12 mm thick.

• We chose this material for its exceptional acoustic transmission properties and high durability.

• It is sustainably harvested. It has been used in manufacturing for thousands of years and comes from large forests that filter more carbon dioxide than is released during production.

• It’s particularly hard due to its manufacturing process (intercalating wood layers with alternating grain directions), which makes it excellent at withstanding high pressures and producing sound.

• 3 mm front plate, composed of six layers (Birch and Chen Chen woods).

Dimensions

48 x 30 x 32 cm

Weight: 5.5 kg

We purposely designed this to be larger than standard because a bigger sound box equates to a greater movement of air inside it. In other words, the greater the volume, the longer the soundwave, and this produces a stronger, more intense and more driving sound.
