Easier to reach bass tones, a more balanced sound, and enhanced resonance.
Now that the
cajon has become extremely popular, LP designers have set their sights on player comfort, specifically the angle of stroke
required to play a cajon. The top, of course, is flat and provides a stable seat, but the critical front panel of this cajon
is angled outwards. This allows musicians to easily reach down to play bass tones without having to tilt the cajon. This innovative
design promotes longer playing sessions, helps prevent trauma after frequent or long gigs, and also creates a more refined
tonal palette.
The LP Angled Cajon also reduces so-called "standing waves" which creates a wider, more balanced frequency
spectrum. This principle may account, in part, for the rich bass; distinct, crisp slaps; and warm mid-tones prevalent in the
cajon.
Timbres are enhanced by specially chosen hardwoods, carefully butted and held in place by adjustable screws.
And a nice touch: generous rubber feet "liberate" frequencies from choking, ensuring that resonant lows, which can equal those
of a tumba in the right hands, do not transmit into the floor.
For flamenco ensembles, the LP Angled Cajon is fitted
with internal resonating wires for a snare drum-like effect.
Easier and more comfortable to play and richer in frequencies,
the LP Angled Surface Cajon is another example of LP taking an old idea and tweaking it to perfection.
