J.Leiva - Alma Classé Lacquered

The J. Leiva Alma Classé Lacquered Cajon is a model that has established itself firmly in the brand's range. Initially launched as a limited edition, it quickly became a firm favourite thanks to its distinctive sound and meticulous design. This new version takes that philosophy even further, with a significant evolution of the original model.

From the very first strike, this Cajon reveals a particularly energetic response. The high tones come through with great presence and precision, bringing out the best in accents, ghost notes and the most expressive passages of the performance. At the same time, the bass tones drop low, but remain easily legible, without excessive parasitic resonance. This search for balance contributes to a clear sound reproduction, which is appreciated both in rehearsal and in recording situations.

This sonic personality is underpinned by a construction made entirely of Russian birch. The 12 mm chassis provides a solid structure, while the 3.5 mm soundboard retains enough sensitivity to convey the nuances of the percussionist. The work done inside the instrument also contributes to the feeling of mastery between power and definition.

The D.T.S. system with four externally adjustable strings makes it easy to adapt the timbre response to the musician's preferences. Whether you're looking for more attack, more precision or a smoother response, the settings are quickly accessible. The Alma Classé Lacquered is ideal for percussionists who want a responsive, versatile Cajon capable of accompanying different musical styles.
