Tycoon unveils an interesting twist in cajon design
Carrying bags are a must with a weighty cajon such as this, and if you fly a lot with your playing then the excess baggage might well be an issue if you compare it to a wooden cajon. The price could deter some, but Tycoon are definitely turning a lot of heads with their comprehensive and well-crafted catalogue, and with instruments like this they're blending tradition and innovation to great effect.
