The Fineline comfort Mocca offers a special sound experience due to the special snare technique with individual CW² Snare Wires. SP60 Fine genuine leather seat cushion included.
Like a side snare in a drum set, the Schlagwerk Buzz Boards allow you to integrate an additional sound option when playing the cajon. The easy hook-and-loop fixing allows you to conveniently place it on the playing surface, giving you brilliant options for combining the snare and/or bass sound of the cajon and the fast responding Buzz Board. Buzz Boards come in two versions, either with 12 or 24 snare spirals (XL version).
The Skin Udu® is the highlight of Schlagwerk's Udu line. In addition to the lateral sound hole, which produces soft, harmonious bass tones, it also has a thin, attractive natural fish skin, which is optimally tuned at the manufactory. The combination of oriental drum sounds with soft, low-frequency bass tones creates inspiring sound experiences.
The Bendir is an especially popular Frame Drum used in oriental music. The construction of the frame is similar to the Def, but a grip hole in the kettle and snare strings attached to the skin inside the drum make all the difference. The typical Bendir snare effect is created by the four strings.
The patented skinwood playing surface enables a rich full snare sound with controlled overtones. With hand comfort in mind, the Cajinto Skinwood also has an adequate structure for playing with brushes.
