About Schlagwerk Percussion
Schlagwerk Percussion has a 25 year history of manufacturing the professional German-made musical instruments.

In the early 90s, the Cajon la Perù® set the standard for sound and quality of the modern Cajon. This resulted in increasing international demand for Schlagwerk Percussion.
