The body of this Primero cajon is constructed using Shorea plywood and has a crate design that features a meranti faceplate. Meranti is a wood known for its relative hardness and straight grain making it ideal for cajons. A built in bass port magnifies the massive low-end tone of the cajon while two sets of fixed snare wires provide a bright, crisp snare response. This cajon has a silkscreened finish that features an explosive graphic. Primero cajons have a thunderous deep sound you have to hear to believe.
