It's a nice built Cajon but it doesn't really sound good in context
I got this during the UK lockdown and I thought this instrument was going to sound great from the reviews, however, I just don't think this is a good-sounding Cajon.
The tonal quality on this Cajon just sounds too weak and doesn't really contribute a healthy sound to an ensemble. When there are moments when I need to play a touch louder the instrument just chokes up.
Cajons should be able to produce a clear bass and high tone, but in playing this Cajon the bass tone is mixed with the highs and the distinction isn't clear enough.
I honestly bought this as an upgrade to a Cajon that I got for free but my first Cajon proves to be a better instrument that simply produces better sounds on gigs and is a joy to play. I struggle to make this sound good even after re-tuning the screws and letting it settle. I took this instrument to my teacher who has better hands than me and he agreed that this wasn't a good purchase.
If I could go back in time I wouldn't buy this instrument personally.
