Cajon Pepote Jaleo Red Top

The Pepote Jaleo cajón is a percussion instrument to add color and emotion to your rhythms.

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.

The Pepote Jaleo with a red top is a high-quality model from the Spanish brand, with a great sound, perfect for those who have already mastered or are developing their technique with great demands.

The sound power of the Pepote Jaleo cajon results from the acoustic properties of its tops, made from selected birch, and the resonance provided by the six vertically arranged edges, which give it the timbre and personality characteristic of this instrument.

With a defined and rich sound, the Pepote Jaleo is a very interesting instrument for musicians who take the cajón everywhere. With a robust construction, the Jaleo is a very light cajón, ideal for taking to parties or impromptu shows.

The cajón is an instrument widely used in flamenco. It comes from South America, but has African origins: created by slaves taken to Latin America, the cajón took root in Peru, where it is considered the Nation's Cultural Heritage. Paco de Lucia introduced this instrument to flamenco, and it has become part of its modern sound.

The original traditional construction of the cajón is simple, just a rectangular box. Thanks to the influence of flamenco, catchphrases were included, such as those on the boxes, which give it another timbre and 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, at the age of 13, she went to a Paco de Lucia show and fell in love with the box from which the rhythms came, to the point of wanting to make her own. Today, it is one of the references in the manufacture of cajóns and one of the reference producers worldwide.

The red-top Pepote Jaleo cajón is a great drum machine to be played with emotion and heart by your hands.
