Meinl Artisan Edition Solea Line Cajon with Dark Red Burst Frontplate - AESLRB

If you’re looking for a versatile rhythm instrument that can replace an entire drum kit, look no further than the cajon. Since the Cajon’s historic migration from Peru to Spain, its use has spread worldwide. Today it is found in literally every musical genre and is often used during unplugged gigs or softer songs to replace an entire drum kit. Besides the drum set, it is the most versatile rhythm instrument available and should not be missing in any drummer’s or percussionist’s arsenal.

ARTISAN EDITION SERIES

This line features two groupings of four pre-tuned metal micro-coiled cajon strings that span across the inside of the playing surface. These strings are hand-wound in the style of master cajon builder, José "Pepote" Hernández Diaz. Inside the Soleá Line of cajons is a special bass reflex system that enhances low end notes for a deeper bass sound. Rounded corners and thumb notches on the top of the frontplate and resonating body optimize playing comfort and sound. The 9-Ply, 12mm thick Baltic Birch resonating body develops the sound into a full, punchy tone that projects with clarity and warmth. Made in Spain.
