J.Leiva Medina ECO cajon

J.Leiva Medina ECO

Why not to contribute a little bit to the reforestation? Why not to start having consciousness about the situation we are involved? Maybe Leiva won’t fix anything but they really want to contribute with “grain of sand” to the environment. This is how Eco-cajon (Medina-Series) is born. A very special cajon with a very special sound.

Manufactured in solid recycled plywood-board made of Chilean pine tree. An excellent wood with some excellent features against breaks and traction. This board is made with the joint system called “Finger joint” which gives a structural rigidity, even superior to the normal plywood board, having as result the ideal and utopian “solid wood cajon” which is almost impossible to manufacture because it uses to get sliced as the time goes by.

J.Leiva have spent more than a year in the development and tests in this instrument, so the customer can be sure about the product.
This is a cajon with excellent acoustic features and an amazing sound due to the brightness and the elegance of its high notes and its bass, powerful and velvety at the same time. At last, an innovative cajon which combines a breaking aesthetic with the simplicity of design.
