Pearl Primero Figured Cherry Cajon – Rear Port (PBC-121B)

The Pearl Primero Figured Cherry Cajon (PBC-121B) pairs a striking figured cherry faceplate with a solid MDF body to deliver punchy lows and crisp snare articulation. Cherry is a fine-grained hardwood with darker wavy streaks; tonally it’s close to maple and brings a touch more bottom-end—great for acoustic sets, busking, coffeehouse gigs, and classroom use. A patented rear-facing bass port helps project the low frequencies, while two fixed internal snare sets add bright, responsive snap for backbeats and ghost notes.

Key Features

• Figured Cherry faceplate for enhanced low-end and a refined visual grain

• Two fixed snare sets inside for clear, consistent snare response

• Patented rear bass port for focused, amplified lows without boominess
