Meinl AE-CAJ7PS Artisan Edition cajón flamenco

General

The cajon is a percussion instrument that has been gaining popularity for a while now. Have you been looking to start playing the cajon yourself? If so, maybe the Meinl AE-CAJ7PS Artisan Edition Flamenco Cajon might be just the ticket. At least quality won't be a concern - this Meinl product is hand-crafted in Spain by craftsmen who have no knowledge of the word 'compromise'. It's no wonder that Meinl cajons are the leaders of the pack when it comes to sound.

Quality

Take one look and it'll be readily apparent that you're dealing with a gorgeous instrument - the light, eleven-ply birch body looks fantastic combined with the dark Palo Santo frontplate. And its sound is just as great, with its well-defined mids and impressive lows (partly thanks to the sound port ring on the back) Meanwhile, the sixteen snare wires provide the cajon's bright sizzle, and you can adjust their tension with the included tuning key. Of course, Meinl hasn't forgotten to look after the person playing the cajon, as the AE-CAJ7PS is ergonomically shaped, featuring a beautifully curved frontplate.
