BodyBox™

BodyBox™


The WoodSkin™ BodyBox™ is a multipurpose super portable cajon. It can be strapped around your waist for playing in a standing position, or can be placed in front of your chair for seated playing. You can even dance whilst playing it!

It is the perfect accompaniment for a body percussionist as demonstrated by the amazing ex-Stomp body percussionist Khalid Freeman.

Alternatively it is the perfect portable cajon for a seated player simply by placing the seat flap on a chair and sitting on it with the cajon between your legs in standard playing position,

Switchable snare

The patented switchable snare comes as standard with WoodSkin cajons and provides an unsurpassed crisp, sharp, “buzz free” snare sound. It employs actual snare drum snares to ensure the most authentic of sounds. The switch moves the snare position from fully in contact with the skin to fully away, and anywhere in between. This means you can have full, little or no snare, fast, noise free and whilst you are playing, live.

Switchable Tone Control

The tone control also comes as standard with WoodSkin cajons. It’s purpose is to selectively control the tone, ring or fundamental note of the drum. Any quality drum intentionally has some degree of sustain, this manifests itself as a note. This note is very desirable, as it is essentially the drum’s voice, however if you are accompanying music played in a competing key the overall sound can appear unbalanced. Our inbuilt Tone Control rectifies that instantly. Switching it on attenuates the drum’s ring note making it consonant with any key. Access to the tone control is via a switch on the side of the drum. It is Immediate, fast, noiseless and can also be controlled whilst you are playing, live.

Ultra portable

The waist strap of the BodyBox™ doubles as a shoulder strap making transportation a breeze, simply sling it over your shoulder, and at about 3kg it’s simple to get around with.
