This Cajon is made from ash and birch wood. It has a beautiful design in a delicate red hibiscus color with the motif of a mystical bird - the Vermilion Bird, also known as Zhuque in China. Zhuque is one of the four celestial symbols of ancient Chinese mythology. It represents the element of fire, the cardinal direction south, and the season of summer.
This cajón is ideal for younger players, teenagers, and adults who prefer a more compact instrument.
The VB42CN-HR model is unarguably one of the best cajóns in this price range - it surpasses many competing models in terms of processing quality, design, sound, and performance.
The greatest advantage of HLURU cajóns is its GLUE-FREE construction.
The body is joined by traditional wooden dowelling, which significantly improves resonance properties, tonal purity, and instrument longevity. It contains no chemical binders or hard glues that would dampen vibrations.
