Cajons available, if you want them

Hey all,

Hope you are well!

Some of you who were at SFF might remember seeing the wooden box drums (cajons) we had that are played by sitting on them and using them like drums. The ones I have also feature 2 drum heads on either side (to emulate Cuban bata heads), and then rhumba-style metal keys on the front, like a large mbira. The instrument is made by a U.S. company called "AfroRhythms" - owned by a Nigerian, they make a lot of cool percussion.

We have two of them; I got them to see if folks might get an interest in playing them at fire circles, and was intending to sell them at SpiritFire but was never in my booth! I know some of you totally dug them, so I thought I'd let you know I've decided it's time to get these out of the house. Online they sell for $275. I'm offering them for $225 (bargaining/trades considered!)

A picture is below, and below the photo is a link to the AfroRhythms online store's instrument info page (in case the photo attachment isn't allowed on the SFF list - can't remember). Feel free to email me if you have questions about the instrument. They are great for many kinds of rhythmic circles, but we are out of room in our house and I just can't hang on to them anymore, nor do I have time to set up my booth this season at all the wonderful events going on.

Just in case the link gets chopped - www.afrorhythms.com//product_info.php

Be well! See you soon I hope,
