General

Build your very own high-quality cajón with the Sela Snare Cajon Kit! Once you've put it together, it offers an impressive sound that you've built yourself! Don't worry, you don't need any experience to construct this cajón. A clear construction manual is included along with tools and prepared materials. It should take about three hours to completely assemble the instrument. All you need to bring is a drill. Now you know how to build one, learn how to play one with the included 'Cajón Method' guide and downloads with tracks to play along.

The Sound of the Sela SE 001 Snare Cajón Kit

The result is an excellent-sounding cajón made of high-quality materials that measures 47 x 30 x 30 cm. The stable playing surface is thin enough to produce a warm, full tone with powerful bass and rich snare sounds that are easily distinguishable. Unlike most DIY cajóns, the Sela Snare Cajón kit has a fully-fledged, adjustable snare mat that can be muted. It also features Clap Corners for more tonal variation. Check out the video below for a detailed introduction!

Sela SE 001 Snare Cajon Kit (DIY)

Great Product , and a great project for the lockdown . The instructions/Video(You Tube) are easy to follow . All the tools you need are in the Kit ( Except an electric Screwdriver ) , although I had to use some extra Sandpaper . I finished the drum with one coat of Danish oil . The completed Cajon looks great and sounds great , I also bought the Cajon Pad . which improved the overall look . Great Item

The Sela Cajon kit arrived on the stated day of delivery and was well packaged, the kit being in its own box within another box. This kit is very German and in a good way - everything you need is included other than a drill, the drill bit is provided, another to wind the star headed screws in, the glue and ratchet straps to hold your work in position whilst the glue sets, and even a sanding block and sandpaper. Each wooden piece is accurately machined ( the front and back panels are sanded down to fit after assembly) and the instructions are very detailed and straightforward to follow, everything is explained well. The kit assembles pretty easily and the finished product looks great and can be finished as you please. The sound is good too., the snare quite loud but can be muted (or temporarily removed if you wish) - overall great value good quality product

Zelden kom je zo een duidelijk, goed en volledig bouwpakket tegen. Mooie manier om in te stappen, speelt fijn.
