Meinl PercussionStained American White Ash Headliner Series Cajons Meinl
Main highlights- WHY IT MATTERS: a lot of musical settings don't allow for the space or volume level of full drums; with the Meinl Headliner Cajon, you can engage fully during acoustic shows with your band, jam sessions, or with your praise band without taking over
- 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
- HOW TO ADJUST STRINGS: we include a hex key that you can use to tighten or loosen the two screws on the bottom of the cajon (between the two front feet); tighten the screws for more definition and loosen them for a lax snare effect
- HOW IT WORKS: the ash wood playing surface delivers punchy bass with about as much volume as an acoustic guitar, and inside the cajon are two sets of adjustable micro-coiled steel cajon strings that give you a crisp snare sound (tuning key included)
- 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
- BY THE NUMBERS: the Meinl Headliner Cajon measures 11 3/4" W x 18" H x 12 1/4" D and weighs 10 lbs; its full size has enough volume for any room, and it's made to last with a solid frame that supports adults and children
- BE SMART: the playing surface is 100% American white ash wood, and it delivers clear sound full of warm mids, crisp highs and deep low-end tone; made with NO cheap, glued-on, plasticky laminates that only look like wood
