Award-winning and critically acclaimed percussionist and drummer Alex Acuña has become the proud owner of an impressive new signature line from Gon Bops.

Alex has two cajons currently available from Gon Bops: his signature model, plus an impressive special edition model. Both are beautifully made cajons.
The cajon features a seamless finish with Peruvian hardwood corners and joints rounded smooth.
Unlike most cajons with snare that run right down the tapa (front plate), this model is constructed with snares tht lie diagonally across the top corners of the cajon. This affords a greater choice of sounds than ever before.
The Special Edition has many more adjustable screws than are found on most cajons and this means more control over the snap and resonance.
No wonder Alex is proud to put his family name on this cajon, which is part of the signature line that also includes congas, bongos and bells!
