Yeah, that is the Rumberos de Cuba video I just posted, but the point is that the quinto cajon is low pitched not high pitched. The only high pitched quinto sound you hear is from the quinto drum, not the quinto cajon. The larger cajon Yosvani Diaz is playing with the tumba is also low pitched. You rarely see high pitched cajones played in rumba, and when you do it kills your hands when you play it.
