The caixa de guera is a Brazilian samba snare drum. It is much lighter and dryer toned drum than a standard snare drum and has a straight wire snare on the top (playing) surface.  We sell the Artcelsior / King caixa drum which has clean, dry, cutting tones. Its light weight and superior tone makes these caixas the preferred choice of most Rio de Janeiro samba schools. You can hear this drum being played HERE .

Sticks and straps supplied separately. To find out more about caixas, see below.
