Meinl CAJ1WN-M Modern Snare Cajon

General

If you're looking for an attractive cajon with a pure, classic sound, then this Meinl CAJ1WN-M might be just the ticket. The Modern Snare cajons feature a knurled knob on the side, that adjusts the pressure of the snare wires against the frontplate, allowing you to change the sizzle effect from light and sensitive to nice and loud. Furthermore, you can even disengage the entire snare unit, for a more natural sound. The body is made of rubberwood, which originally comes from the Brazilian rubber tree.

Thanks to its walnut frontplate, this Meinl Modern Snare Cajon has an elegant appearance. Walnut is also a thin and flexible wood type, which results in a large range with deep, rich tones. Furthermore, the unique visible wood grain on the frontplate really sets it apart from other cajons. It's a great instrument for flamenco music in particular, but it will prove useful in many other styles as well.
