First professionally made cajon.

Need to sell now!

The background. About 30 years ago I saw a guy with a cajon (it was brand new to me). It was made with a handsaw. VERY rough. It rattled a ton but the guy said people liked that. I thought…this thing is so cool, why not make it really nice?
A friend of mine is a great woodworker/furniture maker soooo…we made about 8-10 sets.The studio guys here in LA snatched them up quick. I charged $450 for a set of three. 

We took them to TOCA but they did not go for it. Soon I saw them in Guitar Center with our same basic shape. The rest is history. Now they have whole drum sets using them. haha.
I need to downsize and am selling this prototype. I  will sell a few more as well.

This drum is 25" tall with a 12" square head. I truly believe ours were the very first professionally made cajons. 

They look great, sound great and are a part of percussion history. Thanks for looking.

This unit is sold as is. Local pickup only. There are no refunds. Check out my other items for sale! Thanks for looking.
