Meinl Ebony Bass Cajon with Snare Pedal

The ebony bass Cajon with snare pedal features a foot-activated snare throw-off. Great for switching between flamenco and Peruvian Cajon styles, this instrument offers a choice to play with a crisp snare tone or without snare for a hollow conga/bongo effect. By pushing on the pedal, players can alter the amount of pressure the internal snares have on the playing surface, and the snares can be turned off completely.

The Baltic birch resonating body gives the Cajon a focused attack with a wide dynamic range of highs and lows, while the ebony front plate delivers rich sounds with plenty of response. The mechanical pedal is attached to two internal sets of coiled steel snare wires; pushing the pedal forward places the snares against the playing surface, and pulling it back removes them.

This is an oversized Cajon built for deeper bass that fills the room. The extra-wide playing surface has a larger bass sweet spot to bring more punch. Measuring 13 1/4" W x 19 3/4" H x 13 1/2" D and weighing 13 lbs, the Cajon's large size provides enough volume for any room, and its solid frame supports adults.

The Cajon can be played alongside guitars at acoustic shows, with worship music, in the studio, or at outdoor jams. Four solid silicone feet keep the Cajon stable, avoid scratches, and eliminate vibrations on any surface.
