The Tango line of artisan Cajon have two groupings of three pre-tuned metal micro-coiled Cajon strings that span across the inside of the playing surface for a crisp snare effect. These strings are hand wound in the style of master Cajon builder, José Pepote Hernández Diaz. Rounded corners and thumb notches on the top of the front plate and resonating body optimize playing comfort and sound. The 7-ply, 9mm thick Baltic Birch body develops the sound into a full, punchy tone that projects with clarity and warmth. Available with Limba or light eucalyptus finish front plates. Made in Spain.
