Custom shop "Artista Flat back"
img_1285.jpg

Sold

 Fine dense grain Western Red Cedar shell, Red Oak rims, Purple Heart binding & solid dense verticle grain Douglas Fir back. Same special Finish Birch face with inlay divider strip. Clear Lacquer finish.

 Exceptional Tone quality, Resonance & clairity with full body is how I discribe this  custom shop Cajongo. The solid Doug Fir back is very live and responsive. A little lighter touch is suggested when playing  the solid Doug Fir back.

 The cedar color on this one is a  natural milk chocolate.

Very fine Western Red Cedar

This custom Shop OM Arch Back has a very live, warm tone that can be heard with the slightest touch, yet has attack to cut through when needed.
 The lumber for this special Cajongo cajon came from a 120 year old house that was being renovated.
