Meinl Cajon Box Drum with Internal Strings for Snare Effect - Mahogany Frontplate / Baltic Birch Body, 2-YEAR WARRANTY

The Meinl Woodcraft Pro Cajon is a meticulously crafted percussion instrument that delivers exceptional sound quality. Constructed from Baltic birch wood and outfitted with specially wound metal strings spanning the playing surface, this cajon produces well-defined snare and bass tones.

The birch construction allows for a warm, resonant tone with ample attack, while the internal fixed metal strings add a crisp and sensitive snare effect. This enables the player to effortlessly produce deep back beats and articulate finger rolls. Rounded corners on the playing surface ensure total comfort and maximize playing tactility.

For drummers, the Meinl Woodcraft Pro Cajon offers a convenient alternative to a full drum set. It can be set up in no time and delivers the same kick and snare sounds as a drum kit, but at a fraction of the volume. By playing towards the center, the player can achieve the deepest tone, while playing near the top corners produces crisp snare effects.

This cajon's versatility makes it an excellent choice for a variety of musical settings. In acoustic shows, jam sessions, or praise band performances, the Meinl Woodcraft Pro Cajon allows the player to fully engage without overpowering the overall sound. Its compact size and low volume make it an ideal solution for situations where a full drum kit is impractical or disruptive.

Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, the Meinl Woodcraft Pro Cajon features a 100% Baltic birch wood body, which is also used in high-end drum sets for serious musicians. The mahogany frontplate further enhances the instrument's premium quality and visuals.

The Baltic birch playing surface delivers a punchy bass with about as much volume as an acoustic guitar. Inside the cajon, two sets of fixed custom micro-coiled steel cajon strings provide a crisp snare sound. The rounded and sanded corners of the playing surface create defined slap tones, with a perfectly flush fit to feel great on the hands.

Measuring 11 3/4" W x 19 3/4" H x 12" D and weighing 10 lbs, the Meinl Woodcraft Pro Cajon is a well-proportioned and portable instrument. Its 9-ply (12 mm) Baltic birch body ensures durability and resonance, while four solid silicone feet keep the cajon stable, prevent scratches, and eliminate vibrations on any surface.

As a family-owned musical instrument manufacturer and brand established in Germany in 1951, Meinl is renowned for its expert craftsmanship and unwavering commitment to quality. The Meinl Woodcraft Pro Cajon is a testament to this tradition, offering musicians a versatile and exceptional percussion instrument that elevates their musical performances.
