This was an easy and fun groove to play. I definitely went on a little solo at the end of the play along. 😁 Thank you!

[@CajonMaster]

Great to hear that! Happy you liked it and had fun playing the song ;) 🙏

[@aronkaufman2238]

Very nice Cajon groove! And very easy to play solo phrases off of this basic groove. Thank you!

Thank you this is beautiful. I bought two mahogany cajons and this tutorial is so APPRECIATED! Nice job brother! God Bless!

[@CajonMaster]

Glad it helped! Feel free to share a video of you playing the groove with one of these new cajons 😉 🙏

[@rebels8643]

Best channel for learning cajon...👌👌👍

[@CajonMaster]

Thanks a lot Erfan! Really appreciate that 🙏

[@bertycx]

Thank you so much for this video! Of all the cajon players out there, your notation is easiest to read. I appreciate the "play with music" section that you recently added, really helps, although I get lost in the music and lose track of the beat...maybe someway to keep track would help. Thanks again!

[@CajonMaster]

Thank you for your words! Glad to know that's helpful for you. After integrating the groove it will be easier to play with the music. Give some time to it, focus on the practice and it will come, I'm sure!

[@NickWeissMusic]

yep, take your time! this comment is a year old, but if you kept at it you'll have it by now lol. To put this in perspective, I'm a professional bass player, cajon hobbyist although I could play pro if needed, played plenty of salsa grooves, and this took me two or three solid hours over two days of practice to get in with the music. I had the distinct advantage of already understanding the syncopated groove, and it still took hours to make comfortable. Take breaks and spread your practice out, it's important to clear your head when it gets all jumbled and you can't hear the one. If you can't count confidently along with the music, that's where you have to start. If you can count the music confidently, you WILL get the groove with enough practice. it's just straight 8th notes after all, which ones are loud is the only problem lol.

[@101Osprey101]

Great video! Something new to practice. :) I am thinking about getting a second cajon. Do you have any videos showing the sound comparisons between the different brands of the standard, box-shaped cajons? I live in a rural area so do not have the opportunity to play before I buy. Currently I have a Sela CaSela and I feel like the snare is a bit lacking for what I want to play. I am hoping to hear direct comparisons between Sela and other brands such as Meinl and Schlagwerk. It would also be interesting to show how the different type of string/snare setups sound when played side by side. Thanks a ton for your videos. I have been playing drums since I was 13 and I am 55 now. Not much chance to play anymore so I bought a cajon. I can play along with the stereo and don't need to blast the volume. Great way to keep playing!

[@CajonMaster]

Hi! Thanks for your message, I can help you with the different models from Meinl percussion because are the ones I have full access as an artist. Have you seen my "12 Cajons" video yet? kzbin.info/www/bejne/aanPaKCtiK-NhJo Let me know what do you think, cheers!

[@Squirrelconga]

🧁 Sweet!!! I love the B(&) after 2!!

[@CajonMaster]

Thanks! Yes, the B& is the thing!! 🙏 😉

[@Wsnchez]

Muchas gracias... Una consulta, ¿esta música esta en 2-3 o en 3-2?

[@CajonMaster]

2-3 Clave. You can hear the clave pattern at the beginning of the backing track section ;)

[@michaeltokatlidis9129]

Awesome!! Which is the best cajon for an adult beginner?

[@CajonMaster]

Hi Michael, thanks for your comment. Depending of your budget I would suggest the Meinl Artisan Tango line at around $200 or the Snarecraft PRO also around $200. Have a look in the playlist unboxing and reviews - kzbin.info/aero/PL7ywwJyHBakS7IpcrPVfFtI0PNmbLHYTj Let me know which one you like the most, cheers

[@BenediktBassimir]

Great video ! You cajon sounds awesome. I am just getting into the word of cajons and was wondering what brand it is, and if you have any recommendations regarding buying a cajon ? I really like the snappy sound of it. Best.

[@CajonMaster]

This is a very cool cajon with an affordable price. This is the Meinl Artisan Tango Line Eucalyptus - geni.us/6qOV

Your lessons are awesome but NOT for beginners. Your basic presentation is way too fast for a baginner.

[@CajonMaster]

Thanks for your message. This lesson is an advanced lesson. You can find beginner courses and lessons at cajonmaster.com ;) cheers!

@@CajonMaster Thank you, LOVE your lessons and was practicing your cha cha one, SO excited to play with music!!! If I can slow down your first instructions then that would be the awersomest!
