Aklot 10" Cajon Drum Compact Acoustic Jam Cajons Betula Wood Percussion Box, Internal Adjustable Snares,with Gig Bag

Nice simple starter for beginner. Bag nice and study. Depth of tone basic.

This Cajon is fantastic. Great sound, beautiful sound and at a very reasonable price. The gig bag is ideal.

Drum sounds great, good value for money spent. A little much snare but its adjustable enough to make it sound nice. Arrived with a rather unsightly dent in the wood, top edge on one of the sides, so packaging leaves a little to be desired. Very nice size, and the travel bag is a plus.

Got it for my 9 year old and he loves it. I can also sit and use it. It's a lot of fun. Makes a good sound

As always Aklot delivers a quality beginners instrument to my home. I have personally purchased this brands Ukulele Bass, Ocarina, and now this amazing Cajon Box. The wood quality is really nice, the sound is very pleasing, and the price doesn't make you hurt after purchasing.Anytime I personally want to learn a new instrument, I always check to see if Aklot sells one first. They are a great company that cares and has proven that in the past when contacting them. They always make things right, and wont leave you disappointed.Whenever you want a quality beginners instrument check these guys out first. You won't be disappointed.

I wasn't expecting such a quality product for what I paid for it but it works and, most importantly, SOUNDS beautiful.

Dislike: can't stop the snare buzz. If you tighten the strings to rid yourself of the buzz, for the base note, then you lose the snare at the top. The balance is not good. The snare wires thread from top to bottom, not side to side. This I think is the problem. The Good: packaging, delivery, finish and the zipper case are very, very good. I'm m sorry that I just couldn't get past the "noise".

This is a great cajon for the price.

Très satisfait pour le prix

Overall:>This cajon is made of birch.>Comes with a simple but nice padded case.>There is a hex key inside the cajon (I would remove it from the interior slot)>The snare is taped down and can be removed if needed.(If you are going to adjust the snare, you must remove the tape first.)>The wood is perfectly finished and has 4 rubber feet.>The ‘tapa’ and cajon were varnished together. So, it might be a little hard to remove/ adjust the tapa if that is what you want.Sound:It has a good sound; I left the snare taped down… but if you want the full snare sound, you can remove the tape and adjust the tension on the strings. If you want something more powerful you can remove the guitar strings and attach metal drum snares. You could also switch to using a BRC04 brush pad.Is it for Practice? Gig? Or Professional?Well, this is a smaller cajon (10 inch) than the usual 12 / 14 inch. So, I would say that this is more of a practice cajon / learning cajon. OR if you have kids or teens this would be the perfect size for them.Is it worth it?At ~ $89, it is not a bad value (you get the cajon, case and hex key.) Knowing that this might be bought for a total beginner, I do wish there was a small note / or manual explaining what to do with the key and tape. If you buy it as a practice cajon like I did, it will be much cheaper than the other practice cajons out there which are 1/5 the size of this one.Cheers!

Fun little instrument

Très beau son et bien fait

Great sound for a small size but the bag was moldy upon arrival. Had to wash. The instrument seems to be okay though!
