Great Value But ....

EoinyMc, 19.01.2018

As Cajons go, I doubt you'll do better on price and as a kit project - it should be a pretty simple build. After all, it's basically a box and should be really straightforward especially when the timber comes pre-cut to size.
In fact, the most difficult part of making a Cajon is cutting the sound-hole.
And that's the problem. The sound-hole is not pre-cut. You've got to cut it yourself.
Not so easy - unless you've got the right tools and not everyone has a fret saw or jigsaw - the recommended tools according to the instructions.
Pre-cutting the sound-hole would take no time at all at the factory workshop where these kits are made and would make assembly far easier for those of us who are not carpenters.
That said, when I eventually managed to cut the sound-hole - I had a nice Cajon at a great price.

Good kit, also for non-craftsmen

24.01.2017

I had already assembled the CBA1 kit of Schlagwerk in advance, which demanded all sorts of tools and craftsmanship. Therefore, I was curious how the Thomann kit sounds and how demanding the assembly is.
Basically, the building instructions are well written and the assembly you get as a layman without problems (in contrast to the CBA-1). I was surprised that the face is completely glued, normally the upper edge is only screwed and not glued. Sounds good in the end.
A point of criticism is that the nails (for the floor and snare bar) very easily break and I had to take my own ... in itself yes no problem. In addition, the impact surface and the back surface have been relatively large, so you have to grind a lot. This costs quite a lot of time and nerves. Here a more accurate measure would have been beautiful. In the end I treated the cajon with hardwood oil and now it looks very valuable. The sound is ok, and the bass is relatively powerful. However overall not comparable with a high-quality purchased Cajon. Soundly similar to the CBA-1, but much easier to build.
I would especially because of the good price / performance ratio again!
PS I recommend that the sound hole a little higher up (about 2cm) saw, then the bass comes with more pressure.
