Sometimes called a beatbox or box drum, this cajon is the wooden acoustic percussion instrument you sit down on and play with your hands (it’s pronounced “kah-hone”). The Meinl Percussion Snare Cajon with bag bundle is made in Europe with 100% Baltic birch for full, resonant bass notes and crisp slap tones. Baltic birch is special because of its naturally “EQ’d” tone with punchy low notes, balanced highs and great projection. This wood species is also used extensively in high-end drum set construction for this same reason. To get its super-crisp slap sound, inside are two sets of coiled steel snare wires fitted against the playing surface. These are the same type of snares found on snare drums. The frontplate (or playing surface) responds well to finger rolls as well as corner slaps and bass hits with your hands, giving you optimal dynamic control. When played toward the center, the resonating body accompanies the playing surface by broadening your bass notes to achieve a deep and punchy sound, reacting much like a kick drum. You’ll find a sound port on the rear side that helps develop bass tone and is a perfect spot for microphone placement. Non-slip silicone feet allow the body to resonate to its fullest while providing stability. This instrument is ideal for acoustic gigs when a full drum kit cannot be used, and it comes with the Meinl Standard Cajon Bag for easy travel. The exterior 600 denier synthetic fabric is extraordinarily durable for the heaviest of road use. It’s designed for water, stain and abrasion resistance with a good degree of thickness and a PVC backing to give the bag more structure. Inside the bag is a lighter 210 denier synthetic fabric that delivers excellent protection while being exceptionally durable for heavy use (has 3 mm padding) — PU coating makes the interior more durable, water-resistant and flexible. Designed in Germany, Meinl is a family-owned musical instrument manufacturing business that was established in Germany in 1951. Our expert German designers have deep relationships with our builders to ensure you’re delivered the absolute finest quality.
