cajon

Turkish pronunciation, Kajon, is a percussion instrument, derived from the word Cajon in Spanish, and is generally written as Cajon today. Cajon is usually played with fingers and rhythmic hand movements. Peruvian origin Cajon Kajon was first recognized and attracted attention with the use of Paco de Lucia in the 1970s. However, in southern Latin countries, it is known that the history of cajon dates back to the 18th century, where the slaves used to hit the rhythm and have fun by hitting the orange crates for entertainment purposes.

In Turkey, the awareness of kajon has increased in the 2000s and it has taken its place on the stage by being supported with different accessories in line with the needs.

So which is the best cajon, how should I buy cajon, what are the cajon recommendations, does the price of the cajon affect the quality, let's answer the questions

First of all, the material of the kajon should be wood, the dimensions should be in the range of 40x30x30cm for a fuller sound, most importantly, the back and front cover must be a must-have 1st class knotless birch, the tree with the most suitable hardness for hitting and vibration is birch, birch trees also have their own There are classes in it, Ukrainian birch is of low quality and has a lot of knots, 1st class birch is BB++ quality Siberian birch, also snare court wire should be used, in some Cajon models, the strings are stretched in a “V” shape and are sold as tuned cajon. It is definitely not true, the sound obtained here may be pleasing to the person who has never heard of it, but it is a possible fact that an irrelevant sound will be encountered when miking in the stage environment.  Snare Court wire should be preferred in Kajon, of course, this court wire should not be placed randomly, touching the cover at an appropriate angle for a clean sound. The difference between whether the kajon cover is screwed or glued can be explained as follows, if the kajan cover is glued, the chord, the sounds cannot be interfered with, or if there is any problem with the cover, the cover cannot be changed, whereas the distance to the court wire can be adjusted with the screw cover, whether tis or bass sounds can be adjusted. .

We tried to briefly explain all our knowledge on this subject. We manufacture the front and back covers of our Donizetti Brand Dnz101 and other model cajons as screw caps using birch wood, snare court wire. It has been the choice of all educational institutions, public institutions and professional rhythmists due to its affordable price and performance.
