IVSOM Caixa, 6 string, galvanized steel shell, 12"x 7.5"

Regular price $135.95

The classic look and sound that is hard to find outside of Brazil. Get a nod from the Mesteres for having a steel drum and great sound. The two extra strings add just a touch more buzz to your groove. The galvanized steel body provides that authentic Rio samba school sound many sambistas crave.

Tight dry caixa sound on this instrument. The steel body makes is a bit heavier than the aluminum shell but the sound! Once i switched to steel instruments, I never went back. I'm addicted to that sound!

The galvanized steel shell will turn dull over time.  

Keep it tight and swingy as you lay the groove matrix over your group with this work horse.
