The DU Lounge

This is a Peruvian box drum that’s not terribly expensive and is easy to play. There are traditional ones that you sit on and play by leaning over and hitting the front with your hands (but they can make your back sore after a while if you’re not careful), and nowadays there are laptop or “slaptop” versions, as well as smaller boxes that hang around the player’s neck.

I know an exceptional drummer who uses a “slaptop” cajon instead of a traditional drum set on gigs.
