Brand: Meinl Percussion

Color: Walnut

Features:

• For upright playing: the unique design of the Meinl Slaptop Cajon allows players to sit up naturally with the playing surface in their lap, instead of reaching down to strike the cajon (measures 18 1/2" wide x 14" tall x 9 1/2 deep)
• Walnut playing surface with internal snares: fixed snare wires are positioned on both ends of the walnut playing surface, allowing for bass notes to be played in the middle
• Forward facing sound ports: the forward facing ports on the Slaptop Cajon ensure that your notes project to your audience with total clarity; separate ports are positioned for bass and snare
• Perfect for any setting: support any style of music in a live or studio setting with bass and snare drum sounds that simulate a drum set
• Play with your hands or brushes: The upright position makes it easy to play the slaptop cajon with brushes like a snare drum, and of course it may be played with your hands like a standard cajon

Details: The Meinl turbo slap top Cajon is a conceptual step up to a new level. This model is designed to bring the striking surface up nearer to the player, for a more upright playing style. The sound projects forward into the audience from the sound port located on the front of the instrument, which is also convenient for microphone placement. High and low tones, as well as a snare effect are built into the sound board, both of which project forward. This Cajon has all of the outstanding acoustic properties of any standard Meinl Cajon with two sets of snares located on each side of the instrument, each having their own sound port. The turbo slap top Cajon is perfect for ample volume levels. Striking the sides and corners gives more slap and snap sounds, while playing in the middle of the surface delivers deep and boomy bass punches. Soft finger rolls are also easily achievable with its ultra-sensitive playing surface. Cajon are the perfect instrument to use for softer acoustic gigs when a full drum set cannot be used.
