By Andrew Lentz

Published July 21, 2010

The new Skinwood cajon from Schlagwerk taps into hand drumming’s animal nature. With front plates covered in authentic goatskin, the Skinwood delivers a dry, well-rounded tone while giving the player a luxurious tactile experience. The body consists of seven layers of natural-finish alder for unsurpassed strength. Each cajon has a uniquely textured hide so you will look as individual as you sound. Black or red front plates.
