Best Cajon on the Market
I purchased a Kopf Cajon over a year ago after doing a ton of research. I liked that it was made in the states (and in GA, nonetheless - I live outside Atlanta). Prior to making the purchase, I had questions, called, and spoke to Steve directly. He was super responsive and beyond helpful. I waited to do the review, because I wanted to speak on the quality after having a ton of time with the product. I've played around with numerous makes/models of Cajons, and there is nothing like this out there. It sounds like a kick drum but has the responsiveness to function as a full kit (with a few add-ons). The snare doesn't create a buzz, but allows it to function for any type of music/style. I use it for acoustic gigs, and people continue to be blown away at the full sound it provides. I am beyond impressed and will never buy a Cajon from anywhere else.

S-Series Snare Cajon
This cajon is so nicely made & finished. It is plenty strong on the bass sound which is great! If I wanted stronger snare I think I would try out the double shot. Quality products!

Kopf S-Series Cajon
Have played a Kopf Tumba for a couple years, so when I needed a full throated cajon, I called the folks at the shop. This drum is an instant treasure. Sturdy, heavily built with a rich impressive bass. Feels great to my hands and fingers, lots of nuance available. Finely made enough to be a presentation show piece, yet the S-Cajon is just right to be my everyday ride. This cajon will be a good friend for a long time. Thanks, Steve!

4 Star Cajon
I just got this as an early Christmas present to myself. I can't say enough about the quality of this drum. I can tell that some time went into it. It sounds as great as it looks. Nice snare sound and a big fat bass sound too. I love it. Glad I did my research.

Very satisfied
I purchased this for my home studio after doing weeks of research. This cajon came with very high recommendations and I now see why. This is the best sounding cajon that I have heard to date. Great job Kopf !

S series snare cajon review
Received 9/30 /2015. Can't get the smile off my face !. Amazing build,sound and quality. Crisp snare right at the top with a robust bass. Very clean separation of tones without any snare buzz intruding into the bass.Wonderful overtones. Highly responsive to even the lightest finger technique. The non snare tapa has a very rich peruvian sound. A versatile instrument . The Kaces cajon case is well made , well padded and durable. Fits the cajon well. Customer service was outstanding. I was uncertain as to which cajon to buy. I called and discussed this with Steve. Based on the genres , he recommended the S series snare. Wise counsel . Thankyou for a wonderful instrument.

I don't want to work!
I want to bang on the Cajon all day. Kopf really got it right. The sound is perfect right out of the box even without a microphone, now I know why they are back ordered. LOVE IT!!!

1st and best cajon.
I received my Kopf S-Series Snare Cajon around the end of July 2015, and it has proven to be the best cajon I have heard or played. It is incredibly diverse, and it's a blast to play. After receiving it, I went to a local music store and played a handful of other cajons just for fun, and none of them compared to my Kopf! Plus, it's built like a tank. Thanks for the great instrument. Here is a sample of me playing it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iNh0HjAeO1Y
