EC-10 El CajOn, Electronic Layered CajOn - Standard cajOn Size (50 x 30 x 30 cm)

Very poor product. The sensors are misplaced and are not replicating the sound when hit. They are not willing to return and refund also.

A bit pricey but played an acoustic show on the whim and this instrument was the star of the show. No mic'ing needed just a quick line out to our bass player's amp's aux-in and we were rolling!

As an acoustic cajon the EL Cajon sounds great.. honestly no need to have it plugged in all the time to enjoy the instrument. I like adding some extra flavor to my beats and for that the samples sound very cool to add accents. Craftsmanship is excellent as expected from Roland with a piano-like ebony semi-matte black finish and natural wood face. The instrument feels tense in the beginning, but breaks in over time and you will also learn where to tap and at what velocity. One really needs to practice playing the instrument for at least a couple of months, understand the delicacies of playing an acoustic instrument before complaining about the triggers. It works fine, one just needs to learn where to tap and be consistent about it.

Love my El Cajon. I have no musical background and have never played an instrument. Never even heard of a Cajon until 1 year ago when I attended a small jazz show. I thought the instrument was really cool and wanted one but held off. I found myself thinking about it for about a year and then somehow El Cajon came on my radar. I love it and find it relaxing to just bang away to different music that I listen to on my Sonos system. My teenage boys laugh at me and my dogs go crazy. Very happy with the purchase. As a non-musician I fully enjoy it.

Received two of these items, an initial order and then a replacement. To start, I’ve been playing Roland electronic kits since I was a kid, and they should be ashamed of themselves with this product. For a company as innovative as they are with trigger response and accuracy, I have to say that this unit did not deliver on any of the quality I came to expect, particularly at this price point. Not one, but both of the items I was sent were either defective or just downright lousy in terms of their trigger localization accuracy and sensitivity. Quick rolls and velocity response were terrible and I could barely get one sound to register consistently anywhere on the face. As a stand-alone acoustic Cajon, I found the snare to be cheap and the cabinet design to be loose. For the money, I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone.
