Pearl's Elite Series Dub Bass Cajon is constructed using blended Meranti and White Teak for the body with a blended Maple faceplate. The Dub Bass Cajon is unique with its sound ports appearing on the front. The internal sound chamber channels the deep bass out of the front-facing ports. The 50/50 faceplate is half screwed on and half glued, producing an amazing resonance. Most cajon faceplates are either 100% glued on or 100% screwed on, but we discovered blending the two methods produced the best acoustics with this cajon. 3 sets of fixed snare wires positioned at the top of the cajon add to the crisp attack.
Pearl's Elite Series Birch Cajon is constructed using Birch plywood for the body and rich Walnut for the Faceplate. This traditional-sized cajon features a patented rear-facing base port that amplifies the thunderous low-end sound. Walnut produces a tone with more bottom end, and the fully glued-on faceplate has maximum contact with the cajon body. This cajon features two sets of fixed snare wires for a snappy response.

Carved from a solid Mahogany log, the Pearl Ashiko is 22" tall and features a 12" goat skin head. 14 EZ Twist Rope Tuners are attached, allowing you to raise the drum's pitch quickly.
