Pickup Cajon Box Drum with Snare Effect and Electronics, Artisan Edition — MADE IN SPAIN — Baltic Birch Body/Dark Olive Burst Frontplate, 2-YEAR WARRANTY

The Solea line Artisan Edition cajon, handcrafted in Spain by renowned luthier Jose 'Pepote' Hernandez Diaz, is a true masterpiece. This stunning instrument boasts a stately dark olive burst finish and is designed to deliver exceptional performance.

At the heart of this cajon is a passive Piezo pickup system, complete with tone and volume control knobs on the side panel. This allows for seamless amplification, enabling you to send your signal through any amp or PA system (cables not included). Additionally, the cajon is equipped with a quarter-inch "link" jack, allowing you to connect other Meinl passive pickup instruments and control their output using the cajon's dials. This feature helps minimize your setup by eliminating the need for additional amps or outputs.

The Solea line Artisan Edition cajons feature two groupings of four pre-tuned custom hand-wound steel cajon strings that span across the inside of the playing surface, creating a beautifully responsive snare effect. An internal bass reflex system re-directs sound waves inside the cajon, elongating the low-end frequency and resulting in an enhanced bass tone with plenty of thud.

The exquisite 9-ply, 12mm thick Baltic birch resonating body of the cajon develops a full, punchy tone that projects with clarity and warmth. The playing surface is rounded at the corners and sanded down to form thumb notches, allowing for exceptional hand contact and more comfort during play.

Measuring 11 1/4" W x 19" H x 11 3/4" D, this cajon is built to last. Meinl's commitment to quality is evident in every detail, from the silicone feet that keep the instrument stable on any surface to the unbreakable snare string designed by Pepote himself.

Pepote's expertise as a master cajon craftsman is evident in the countless hours of experimentation and refinement that went into this instrument. From testing wood combinations and varnishes to creating custom-designed baffles and pop filters, his unwavering pursuit of the best has resulted in a truly remarkable cajon.

The Solea line Artisan Edition cajon is a testament to the art of handcrafted musical instruments. With its rich, punchy, and balanced tone, responsive snare effect, and impressive amplification capabilities, this cajon is sure to captivate musicians and audiences alike. Whether on stage or in the studio, this masterpiece will serve you well throughout your entire musical journey.
