About this item:
·
Crafted in Spain — Meinl Artisan Edition cajons are made in Spain under the master craftsmanship of Jose "Pepote" Hernandez Diaz, a renowned luthier whose artistry and innovation is evident in every detail.
This cajon measures 11 ¼” W x 19” H x
11 ¾” D
·
Baltic birch/canyon burl — a carefully selected pairing of 9-ply Baltic birch for the body and canyon burl for the front plate delivers rich, deep and balanced tone — the playing surface is textured for better response when playing brushes.
·
Custom hand wound internal steel strings — equipped with
two sets of 8
custom hand wound micro-coiled steel cajon strings for a beautifully lush responsive snare through all dynamics — adjust the tension with the tuning screws on the bottom of the cajon.
·
Contoured playing area — the exquisite canyon burl playing surface is rounded at the corners and sanded down to form thumb notches where your hands lay in their natural position — this gives you exceptional contact with more comfort.
·
Refined sound for any setting — the sound port has been fashioned with an extra thick wood ring for compression, as well as a pop filter to improve clarity when playing with a microphone located by the port where air rushes out — great for recording.
The Meinl Artisan Edition Seguiriya Line Cajon:
Resonating body
We used 9-ply (12mm) Baltic birch highlighted with inlays to construct the body of the cajon. Baltic birch is commonly found in high end drum sets for its focused sound with wide tonal range.
Playing surface
The beautiful canyon burl
front plate
features a textured surface for enhanced feel along with an outstanding response, from finger rolls and ghost notes to heavy back beats.
It's all about the feel
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 on 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.
Extra thick sound port ring and pop filter
This cajon comes EQ'ed right out of the box. We added an extra thick Baltic birch ring around the sound port to give the cajon more compression. The tones create a balanced mix while bass and snare give you a solid, deep punch with snappy highs.
Taking to the studio? Outfitted onto the sound port is a pop filter to eliminate the "popping" effect of
fast-moving
air as it rushes out of the cajon and into a microphone as you play.
Adjustable custom micro-coiled steel cajon strings
Hand-wound steel strings span against the length of the playing surface inside the cajon to give you a snare response with clarity, precision and sensitivity.
Each side of the playing surface has eight strings, along with strips of thin fabric to eliminate buzzing or rattling. To tune the strings, use the included hex wrench to turn the two screws located on the bottom side of the cajon between the feet.
A tight set of strings gives you a snappy snare response, while looser settings deliver a lax snare effect.
Contoured playing surface
The exquisite canyon burl playing surface is rounded at the corners and sanded down to form thumb notches where your hands lay in their natural position. This gives you exceptional contact with the cajon along with more comfort.
Taking the touch of this cajon a step further, the playing surface is sanded and shaped together with the resonating body to form a perfectly flush, 1-to-1 match. Each resonating body has a playing surface made just for it.
