CAJINTO & YAMBÚ

Cajinto and Yambú Drums combine traditional Cuban Cajon sounds with the highest manufacturing quality: “made in Germany”.
The instruments that belong to the Cajon family enchant us with soft wooden playing surfaces and produce all the nuances of modern percussion sounds, ranging from high, assertive characteristics to voluminous bass sounds.
     

CC 202 Roland Peil Signature Cajinto
w/o floor stand

The playing surface: Beechwood
Resonance box: 7-layered Alder,
approx. 27 x 27 x 30 cm

he playing surface, which is 2/3 rough, has proved ideal for playing with rods and brushes as well as with the typical hand-playing technique. Thanks to its 2inOne-Technique, a wide spectrum of sound can be achieved,
ranging from originally Cuban sounds to banging
rimshots when used as a snare.

CC 204 Cajinto Solo w/o floor stand

Playing surface: Beechwood
Resonance box: 7-layered Alder,
approx. 27 x 27 x 30 cm

The Cajinto Solo makes a shining impression by combining the Cajon sound with the succinct pitches of a Quinto. The partially screwed playing surface makes it possible to produce razor-sharp slaps by using the typical conga playing technique. By loosening the screws, these slaps can be intensified with a typical Cajon wood-smacking effect! The advantages of the 2inOne-Snare technique can be used as well.

CC 206 Bass Cajinto incl. floor stand

Playing surface: Beechwood
Resonance box: 7-layered Alder,
approx. 29 x 29 x 61 cm
Height: with Stand approx. 73 cm

Its construction is very similar to that of its “little sisters” – the only visible difference is the much deeper resonance box which provides for a convincing and rich bass. Thanks to the 2inOne cross-bar, the player of this drum might easily take for granted the magnificent snare sound at his/her disposal. The Bass-Cajinto is also delivered with an ingeniously simple, yet solid wooden stand.

Bass Cajon

   
BC 462 Bass-Cajon  

BC 462 2inOne Bass Cajon

Playing surface: antique Beechwood
Resonance box: 7 layers of Gabon wood,
approx. 50 x 30 x 48 cm
2inOne-Technique with 84 spirals

The second generation of Schlagwerk Bass-Cajons also applies the 2inOne-Snare-Technique. The result: voluminous bass combined with an unexpectedly light and pleasant snare effect. Because of its acoustic power, it is also ideal for unplugged-gigs.

   

 

     
     
 

BC 460 Booster Boxx

Playing surface: Beechwood
Resonance box: 7 layers of Gabon,
approx. 50 x 30 x 48 cm
2inOne-Technique with 40 spirals

Booster Boxx – The name is standard for musicians. This Bass-Cajon, which was designed for use with a pedal and BP 40, makes an amazing bass drum sound on stage. The integrated snare cross-bar helps to create a totally realistic sound (distinctive vibrating snare wires). The frequency range lies just above that of “normal” bass drums, thus offering an absolute impressive, interesting and assertive alternative.
