Schlagwerk Roland Peil Signature Cajinto Drum

The Roland Peil Signature Cajinto is a very versatile drum. The playing surface, which is 2/3 rough, has proven ideal for playing with rods and brushes as well as with the typical hand-playing technique. Thanks to its 2inOne snare spiral design, a wide spectrum of sound can be achieved, ranging from original Cuban sounds to banging rim shots when used as a snare.

The resonance box is made of seven layers of alder wood, while the playing surface consists of beech wood. Additionally, it has snare spirals that contact the playing surface. Optimally positioned, the snare spirals produce a clear and distinctive snare sound.

The snare effect can also be removed by adjusting the snare spirals, making this cajinto capable of producing entirely different sounds. It truly is two drums in one. The resonance box and playing surface have a natural finish that lets the beauty of the wood show through, and the cajinto has a refreshing and interesting design.

The Roland Peil Signature Cajinto can be used as a hand drum utilizing traditional hand drum playing techniques. It can also be used to supplement or even replace a conventional snare drum in a drum set. By using rods or brushes, the drummer is able to produce some very interesting snare drum sounds. And, since the snare effect is removable, the drum becomes even more versatile.

Schlagwerk's attention to detail, skilled craftsmanship, and innovation are reflected in all their products. Their cajintos are no exception. For more than 25 years, Schlagwerk Percussion has been intensively developing their products, which have gained worldwide recognition. The instruments that belong to the cajon family (cajones, cajintos, and yambus) enchant us with soft wooden playing surfaces and produce all the nuances of modern percussion sounds, ranging from high, assertive characteristics to voluminous bass sounds.

The Roland Peil Signature Cajinto is a professional, unique, and versatile drum that can be used in many musical settings. In Roland Peil's own words, it is, "Phat like an L.A. Snare or crisp like a Rumba Quinto, the cajinto is my all-in-one box! Whether with rods, brushes, or hands, it always speaks its own language."

The Roland Peil Signature Cajinto can be played by holding it between the knees while sitting, or it can be mounted on a stand. The optional cajinto adapter plate can be used to mount the drum on a conventional snare drum stand. Additionally, the cajinto can be mounted on the optional cajinto floor stand to provide a secure base for playing. Please see our listings for both the cajinto adapter plate and floor stand.
