Meinl Percussion Cajon Box Drum with Internal Strings for Snare Effect, Natural — NOT Made in China — 100% Baltic Birch, Woodcraft Series, 2-Year Warranty, WC100B

Built from Baltic birch wood and outfitted with specially wound metal strings that span the inside of the playing surface, Mein woodcraft Cajon deliver well-defined snare and bass sounds. The Birch construction allows players to dig in with plenty of attack and a warm tone. Internal fixed metal strings add a crisp and sensitive snare effect that makes it easy to produce deep back beats and articulate finger rolls. Rounded corners on the playing surface offer total comfort while maximizing your touch.

• DREAM FOR DRUMMERS: it takes no time to set up, and you get the same kick and snare sounds as a drum set at a fraction of the volume; play with your hands toward the center to get the deepest tone and near the top corners for crisp snare effects
• WHY IT MATTERS: a lot of musical settings don't allow for the space or volume level of full drums; with the Meinl Woodcraft Cajon, you can fully engage during acoustic shows with your band, jam sessions, or with your praise band without taking over
• BE SMART: we craft this cajon from 100% Baltic birch wood, which also used in high-end drum sets for players serious about sound; made with NO cheap, glued-on, plasticky laminates that only look like wood
• HOW IT WORKS: the Baltic birch playing surface delivers punchy bass with about as much volume as an acoustic guitar, and inside the cajon are two sets of fixed custom micro-coiled steel cajon strings that give you a crisp snare sound
• ZOOM IN: the corners of the playing surface are rounded and sanded together with the resonating body so you get defined slap tones; it's perfectly flush where these two pieces meet to feel great on your hands
• BY THE NUMBERS: measures 11 3/4" W x 19 3/4" H x 12" D and weighs 8 lbs; 7-ply (9 mm) Baltic birch body
• THE BOTTOM LINE: you can play 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 crazy vibrations on any surface
• THE BIG PICTURE: Meinl is a family-owned musical instrument manufacturer and brand established 1951 in Germany; our expert German designers have deep relationships with our builders to ensure you're delivered the absolute finest quality
