Alex Acua Special Edition Cajon


Truly a Work of Art
This beautifully and painstakingly hand-inlayed instrument is also one of the most versatile Cajons on the market. Its deep, resonant bass tones are awe-inspiring. Playing with hands closer to the edges results in multiple levels of snap as the minimalist guitar string wires are engaged, resulting in some truly sublime effects. The wires are configured diagonally across the corners of the Cajon for reduced snare sound while playing bass tones. An increased number of adjustable screws also results in greater control over snap and resonance. Have we mentioned its also a work of art? The seamless finish features Peruvian hardwood dovetailed corners with smoothly rounded joints. And individual multicoloured wood tiles are arranged into a spectacular wooden mosaic. The traditional Peruvian Cajon is handmade and meticulously tested in Peru by skilled craftsmen.

Mixto Cajon
Innovative Design Blends Two Remarkable Traditions
Blending the Flamenco tradition of Spain with the authentic Folk tradition of Peru, Gon Bops has created a remarkable Cajon that boasts two playable panels. Its unique sideways sound port design allows performers to play either the front or back panel or both. In addition, the Flamenco side provides guitar string wires while the traditional side does not for maximum versatility in tone. For bigger, tighter bass response, the traditional side features a partially sealed playing panel. The Flamenco side also maximizes bass response with diagonally placed snare wires for reduced snare buzz while maintaining plenty of snap when playing slap tones. If versatility is what you need, look no further than these two remarkable Cajons in a single box!

The Uncompromising California Series
How do you build the finest drums in the world? You begin with handselected, quarter-sawn Appalachian Red Oak. Each stave is meticulously cut and bent by hand. Steel rings are hammered into place, and the staves are allowed to cure for months. The shells are hand-glued, hammered into shape and turned by skilled craftsmen who have used these traditional methods for over 30 years. By the time they are hand-sanded to a baby soft finish, an entire year has passed.

The Ultimate Hardware


Gon Bops hardware is second-to-none when it comes to advanced design, heavy-duty durability and smart features. Like the patented push-lock design on our Conga, Bongo and Timbale stands.

Smart Side and Backing Plates


Smart design protects wood and hardware on our drums by extending the back plate to strengthen areas under stress. Also eliminates need for cup washers, allowing for extended tuning range and longer hardware life.

Tight Profile Top Ring Designs


Our California Top Ring design means less pressure on wood and hardware, less effort required to tune drums. And the traditional Gon Bops Teardrop Top Ring design delivers vintage quality and feel.

Solid Hardwood Engineering


Our Cajons are constructed from solid hardwood using advanced carpentry techniques like dovetail joints. Maximum attention to detail is built into every instrument we manufacture.
