Build your own percussion instrument
This assembly kit made in Germany contains everything you need to build a fully playable cajon with your own hands. All components are precisely prefabricated, so there is no sawing or measuring involved: according to the manufacturer, the build takes about 90 minutes, and all you need is a hammer and a screwdriver. The assembly instructions come in five languages (German, English, French, Italian and Spanish) and guide you through every step.
Wenge veneer for an elegant look
The playing surface of the finished cajon is a dark-grained Wenge design veneer, giving the instrument a more refined appearance than simpler kits. The resonance box is made of plywood and houses two snare elements with 20 spirals each - these create the characteristic crisp buzz of the cajon alongside its deep bass tone.
What is in the box?
The package includes all wooden panels, the two snare elements, express glue and the tensioning belts needed during assembly. The finished instrument measures approximately 30 × 30 × 50 cm, and the kit weighs 5.9 kg. The 50 cm seat height offers a comfortable playing position for adults.
Who is this kit for?
It is a great choice if you enjoy working with your hands, if you are looking for a shared family project, or if you are a music teacher who wants to show students how a percussion instrument is built. The assembly itself is part of the fun, and the result is a real instrument you can play every day.
