Meinl SC80BW Snarecraft Cajon, Burl Wood

MEINL Snarecraft cajons combine articulate rhythmic punctuation with a warm tonal quality to give players a focused sound and wide dynamic range.  Made of Baltic birch wood, MEINL Snarecraft cajons respond with a punchy low end thud and crisp slap tones.  The highly expressive snare sounds come from dual internal sets of snare wires that are fixed against the frontplate.  Rounded corners on the playing surface offer total comfort while maximizing your touch.  Baltic birch is special beacuse of its naturally “EQ’d” tone with punchy low notes, balanced highs and great projection. This wood species is also used extensively in high-end drum set construction for the same reason. Snarecraft Cajons feature carefully rounded corners where the playing surface and body meet.

Likely scenario
If you’re a drummer, this cajon is made to set a strong acoustic foundation for those gigs, that don’t call for a full kit.  Explore ideas just like you would on a set of drums with thump-y kick drum rhythms and cutting snare. When there is no question about how it plays and you get MORE back in response than you put in, you have found a prized percussion masterpiece. It’s a great feeling when you can sit down with this cajon and get a sense of its depth of sound and incredibly detailed craftsmanship with only a simple tap of your fingers on the playing surface.
