Artisan Edition Series

Adjustable strings and an extra thick wooden sound port ring for bass compression gives the Sequiriya Line a wide dynamic range of highs and lows. Two sets of eight micro-coiled metal cajon strings give a snapping snare effect and are adjustable with the included tuning key. These strings are hand wound in the style of master cajon builder, José "Pepote" Hernández Diaz and respond with the upmost sensitivity. The 9-Ply, 12mm thick Baltic Birch resonating body develops the sound into a full, punchy tone that projects with clarity and warmth. A decorative wood inlay adds a touch of elegance to their appearance. The Sequiriya Line comes with a Canyon-Burl or Indian Heartwood frontplate.

Made in Spain

Indian Heartwood & Baltic Birch

Playing surface

The beautiful Indian Heartwood frontplate features a textured surface for enhanced feel along with a superb response, from finger rolls and ghost notes to heavy back beats.

Resonating body

We used 9-ply (12mm) Baltic Birch highlighted with inlays to construct the body of the cajon. Baltic Birch is commonly found in high end drum sets for its focused sound with wide tonal range.

Extra thick sound port ring and pop filter

This cajon comes EQ'ed right out of the box. We added an extra thick Baltic birch ring around the sound port to give the cajon more compression. The tones create a balanced mix while bass and snare give you a solid, deep punch with snappy highs.

Taking to the studio? Outfitted onto the sound port is a pop filter to eliminate the "popping" effect of fast moving air as it rushes out of the cajon and into a microphone as you play.

Adjustable custom micro-coiled steel cajon strings

Hand-wound steel strings span against the length of the playing surface inside the cajon to give you a snare response with clarity, precision and sensitivity.

Each side of the playing surface has eight strings, along with strips of thin fabric to eliminate buzzing or rattling. To tune the strings, use the included hex wrench to turn the two screws located on the bottom side of the cajon between the feet.

A tight set of strings gives you a snappy snare response, while looser settings deliver a lax snare effect.

Contoured playing surface

The exquisite Indian heartwood playing surface is rounded at the corners and sanded down to form thumb notches where your hands lay in their natural position. This gives you exceptional contact with the cajon along with more comfort.

Taking the touch of this cajon a step further, the playing surface is sanded and shaped together with the resonating body to form a perfectly flush, 1-to-1 match. Each resonating body has a playing surface made just for it.

It's all about
