New LP Cajon: The Versatile
Toneful Box
The
Cajon has become extremely popular and for good reason. The square-ish
box offers delightful tones, sometimes muted and sometimes open, which simulate
everything from bongos to tumbas to snare drums, when played with hand slaps,
deep palm "dooms" and sizzling finger staccato patterns. The cajon
looks for the all the world like a humble box but it has become so much more.
LP is proud to present the LP Cajon, an instrument graced with an exotic "Takean
Tong" wood playing surface. Elsewhere, instead of relying on the tones
inherent in any one type of wood, LP engineers devised a composite wood body,
capable of a broad range of frequency responses, especially a deep low-end,
so critical to traditional cajon performance. Tension of the internal "snare
strings" can be adjusted easily with a standard drum key. And in nice
design stroke, front height-adjustable feet enable the LP Cajon to be tilted
to popular playing positions, liberating it from the floor for increased resonance
and player comfort.
The Cajon can be incorporated into a variety of set ups-even doubling as a
drummer's throne! The LP Cajon is an ideal and popular add-on.
