MDF composite body and maple frontplate
The composite body provides the platform for the maple frontplate to resonate.

Independent shopping perspective
MEINL’s Headliner Series snare cajon combines a lightweight MDF composite body with a maple frontplate. Two internal fixed-snare sets contact the frontplate, responding to light finger rolls as well as firmer slaps for a consistent snapping element. The body is designed to let notes develop before projection, with full bass tone alongside the snare response. Four rubber feet steady the cajon while allowing the body to resonate freely, making it a practical hand-percussion option for acoustic playing.
