Urchin Cajon set up ready to record forthcoming tracks with The Now Nows at a session at The Sound Surgeon studios in Lincolnshire.
This cajon has Urchin’s unique snare adjuster (out of sight, at the rear of the cajon) and a prototype front head tension system. 48 cm tall with a 29.5 x 30 cm top; all high-grade birch ply body, back and tapa with a satin oiled finish.
Mic setup is a pair of MXL condensers (one at the front as seen in the photo, one a few feet in front for the room sound) and an AKG D112 behind the cajon.
