    Hi. Can anyone recommend a brand or place to buy a Cajon? I've seen a couple of trad bands and buskers using these things and the sounds are amazing.
    Want to get one but don't really know much about them. Any advice appreciated.

    You can get them in x music at the red cow. price from 120 to 250 depending on which one you want. i have a meinl one which i think is great, and they are a great little instrument when used right, and in the right context!

    Hey man.. I have tried many cajons. And in my mind the best are the ones made by meinl.. As for which one.. That would depend on your budget...
