The Korena take

The Meinl Jam Cajon is a compact, lightweight Baltic birch cajon made in Europe and designed to travel easily to drum circles or acoustic gigs. Playing near the center brings out the described low-end punch, while strikes at the upper corners produce snare-style slap sounds. Two internal snares rest against the inside of the frontplate for a sensitive response. Its burl wood finish gives this portable percussion option a distinct look, with the source specifically placing it in acoustic shows, jam sessions, singer-songwriter circles, and coffeehouse bands.
