MEINLHybrid Slap-Top Cajon with Forward Sound Projection
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
MEINL’s X-shaped Hybrid Slap-Top Cajon gives a percussionist two distinct sound layouts in one instrument. Play the snare-equipped side for bass notes and sharper slaps, then turn it around for the separate high and low areas of its bongo-style side. That makes it practical for changing the character of a groove during a set without changing instruments. Its Slap-Top layout is designed to be comfortable to play.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Changing between snare-cajon and bongo-cajon voices during a performance.
- Building grooves with bass, cutting slaps, and separate high and low hand-drum areas.
