Meinl Acoustic Drums & Percussion Compact Cajon Box

From The Manufacturer

Create drum set grooves with bass and snare notes using your hands. The wood playing surface has two zones for bass and snare — play with your hands toward the center for deep bass or strike near the top corners with your fingers for crisp snare sounds. Perfect for acoustic shows and jam sessions. This Baltic birch cajon is the perfect grab-and-go percussion instrument for singers/songwriter circles, spontaneous jam sessions, accompanying guitarists and supporting acoustic bands in coffee house settings. Internal snares. Dual sets of internal fixed snare wires are positioned against the inside of the playing surface to give you the same effect as a snare drum — these snare wires are held in place with a thin mesh strap that leaves the tone unaltered. Made in Europe (light brown finish). Constructed with 100% Baltic birch wood, a wood type commonly found in high end drum set construction for its superb natural acoustic qualities that give you plenty of definition with deep bass and cutting high tones. Rear port for sound development. A 4″ circular port is cut into the backside of the Baltic birch resonating body to enhance the tone by letting air escape the instrument as you play it — this is also an ideal spot for microphone placement if needed. Compact size. Measuring 10 1/4″ wide x 15″ tall x 10 1/4″ deep, the jam cajon is compact for easy transport and straightforward use so that anyone can sit down and play this instrument, regardless of skill level or age. Four solid silicone feet. On the underside of the cajon are four solid silicone feet formulated to eliminate unwanted vibrations while protecting the cajon body from scratches on virtually any surface.
