Cajon Pepote Fiesta

The Pepote Fiesta is a professional quality cajón to add vibrant rhythms to your music.

The Pepote Fiesta cajón is an excellent option for professional percussionists and those more advanced in the study of rhythm. Designed and manufactured by the renowned Spanish brand Pepote, the Fiesta model is perfect to accompany all musical styles.

Its sound dynamics allows it to accompany groups with many elements, just one performer or even to be played solo, producing a large volume when necessary but capable of transmitting the most subtle techniques and intensities.

This is possible thanks to the materials used in its construction and the catchphrase system designed by Pepote for the Fiesta. The structure of the box is made of birch plywood, and the top is made of Etimoe wood, a very resistant wood of African origin with a perfect tone for percussion.

The Pepote Fiesta cajón has 10 edges, arranged in a V, which give it precision in playing and a precise vibration at higher volumes.

It is also very comfortable to play, thanks to its rounded corners and recesses to support your thumbs. The measurements of the Pepote Fiesta cajón are 28.5 x 30 x 47 cm.

The Pepote Fiesta is ideal for professional percussionists who use the cajón on stage or in the studio where they need a reliable instrument, with solid construction quality and a powerful and defined sound.

The cajón is an instrument widely used to accompany flamenco or South American rhythms, but its musical and sound versatility allows it to be used in many other styles, especially in acoustic formats. Coming from South America, the cajón has African origins and was taken to Latin America, where it gained roots. In Peru it is considered Cultural Heritage of the Nation. Paco de Lucia introduced this instrument to flamenco, becoming part of its modern sound that seems to have always been part of this musical style.

Thanks to the influence of flamenco, catchphrases were included, such as those on snare drums, which give it another timbre, resonance and a greater variety of sounds.

Since 1990, José "Pepote" Hernández Díaz has been manufacturing cajóns and developing them in search of the best sound and quality. It all started when, still 13 years old, he went to a Paco de Lucia concert and fell in love with the box from which the rhythms came out to the point of wanting to make his own. Today, it is one of the references in the manufacture of cajóns and one of the reference producers worldwide.

The Pepote Fiesta cajón will bring more animation and rhythm to your music.
