Meinl Bongo Cajon Box Drum - Super Natural Finish, Hardwood Body, 2-Year Warranty

The MEINL Bongo Cajon is a compact cajon with high and low pitched areas similar to a bongo, but with a woody cajon sound. Constructed in the traditional Peruvian style without any snares, it produces a clean, warm tone that blends the sound of bongos with a cajon. This instrument is ideal for players who want to pick up and go without carrying around a larger drum, or to have around the home for fun jam sessions. The sound is not limited by its size, and its ergonomic design allows you to comfortably play from the lap as you would with actual bongo drums. The environmentally sustainable Rubber Wood has outstanding resonating acoustic properties and is structurally durable. Included on this bongo cajon are small silicon rubber feet to keep the instrument from slipping on smooth surfaces.

Just tap with your hands to explore the variety of tones; the Meinl Bongo Cajon is a perfect instrument for getting the confidence to play percussion with no experience. A lot of fun musical adventures don't require time-consuming practice or fine-tuning an instrument; with the Meinl Bongo Cajon, you can easily play along with acoustic music, jam with friends, teach classes, or bring to drum circles.

The smooth hardwood playing surface produces high and low pitches just like bongo drums—along with the warm wood tone of a cajon; move your hands between the left and right sides to get variation in pitch. You'll never have to tune this instrument; underneath is a wood divider permanently placed to separate pitches (it will never change pitch, even outdoors); don't spend time dealing with tuning or changing worn out heads.

We craft this bongo cajon with 100% real Siam oak which gives the instrument a natural, warm wood tone; made with NO cheap, glued-on, plasticky laminates that only look like wood. The dimensions are 15 3/4" W x 7 1/4" D x 6 3/4" H, and it weighs 3 lbs. This is a fun acoustic instrument that's portable, sturdy, well-built, and versatile for any skill level; ready to play right out of the box (no tuning required).
