Product description

The Meinl Jam Cajon is perfect for playing on the go. Its compact design is lightweight and easy to carry to drum circles, unplugged gigs or wherever you want to enjoy playing. The size makes it ideal to grab and go for spontaneous jam sessions and has every feature of a standard size MEINL Cajon. Crafted in Europe from birch wood, the Jam Cajon has great low end punch when played near the center and dishes out high frequency "slaps" when striking the top corners. Two sets of internal fixed snare wires brush against the playing surface to deliver a crisp, sensitive snare effect. The finish lets the beautiful natural wood grain show through, and the birch construction produces a rich sound that goes with any style music.

• Create drum set grooves with bass and snare notes using your hands — the wood playing surface has two zones for bass and snare — play with your hands toward the center for deep bass or strike near the top corners with your fingers for crisp snare sounds
• Perfect for acoustic shows and jam sessions — the birch jam cajon is the perfect grab-and-go percussion instrument for singers/songwriter circles, spontaneous jam sessions, accompanying guitarists and supporting acoustic bands in coffee house settings
• Internal snares — dual sets of internal fixed snare wires are positioned against the inside of the playing surface to give you the same effect as a snare drum — these snare wires are held in place with a thin mesh strap that leaves the tone unaltered
• Made in Europe (light brown finish) — constructed with 100% Baltic birch wood, a wood type commonly found in high end drum set construction for its superb natural acoustic qualities that give you plenty of definition with deep bass and cutting high tones
• Compact size — measuring 10 1/4" wide x 15" tall x 10 1/4" deep, the jam cajon is compact for easy transport and straightforward use so that anyone can sit down and play this instrument, regardless of skill level or age
• Rear port for microphone placement — when amplification is needed, the best spot to place a microphone is at the rear port of this Cajon – this circular cutout also enhances low end bass by letting air escape the instrument as you play it
• Other items on this page — we, the manufacturer, have styled like-items on this page as a way of conveniently presenting products that are frequently bought together – we invite you to sort customer comments by product to help make your purchasing choice

Anyone can do this

It's pronounced "ka-HONE" (and while we're at it, you say Meinl like "MINE-ull").

You're now halfway to playing your first groove on this cajon. The rest is all about hand placement.

If you're booking coffeehouses, playing houses of worship, heading out to an open mic night or ALWAYS up for a casual jam session, it's a sure bet that lower volume percussion is going to save everyone's ears.

And cajons are the solution for laying down grooves that fit the mix of these situations.

Time to play

Sitting down on the cajon with the playing surface between your legs (the one with our logo on it), reach down and strike toward the center of it with your whole hand.

That punchy, low note thud you hear will be your bass zone. Hard to forget.

Moving your hands closer to the top corners, strike the surface in a slapping motion using only the length of your fingers for a cracking snare drum sound.

Combine the two motions any way you want to create grooves.

Anyone can do this—regardless of skill.

Baltic birch playing surface

Baltic birch is used in drum set manufacturing for its boosted levels of highs and punchy lows, along with superb projection and articulation—perfect for a wood cajon.

We chose Baltic birch for the playing surface and carefully made it thin enough to respond to soft finger rolls and brush playing while ensuring it's durable enough to endure heavy back beats and fast, choppy rhythms.

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.

Internal snare wires

We took traditional coiled stainless steel snare wires—the same type used on snare drums—and fixed them to the inside of this cajon.

Two sets of these snare wires are positioned to rest on the back side of the playing surface, making your notes extra responsive and clear with a crisp snare effect.

These snares are a big part of what makes the Meinl Jam Cajon perfect for replicating drum set rhythms in acoustic settings.

Rear sound port

A 4" circular sound port is cut into the back side of the Baltic birch resonating body to give you more articulation, a brighter attack and punchy bass notes.

This port also allows air to escape the cajon as you play. With air and sound waves flowing effortlessly from inside the cajon, you're left with a crystal clear percussive response at all dynamic levels.

When extra amplification is needed, the sound port is the perfect spot to place a microphone.

Product description

A Tempo Percussion's El Artesano Cajon is made by A Tempo in Peru, a country considered by most to be the birthplace of the cajon as an instrument. The body of this cajon is made from select pieces of solid Mohena, American Muskwood and Tropical Walnut with a multi-ply Spanish Cedar and Lupuna playing surface and resonant side. El Artesano Cajon features snare wires designed and placed to reduce their sound when playing the bass tone without sacrificing any snap on a slap tone. The result is a cajon that balances the best sonic characteristics of both a traditional cajon and a Flamenco cajon. Free gig bag included!

• El Artesano is a cajon that balances the best sonic characteristics of both a traditional cajon and a Flamenco cajon. It has a warm, booming bass as well as a snappy slap tone.
• To achieve this balance, this cajon features snare wires designed and placed to reduce their sound when playing the bass tone without sacrificing any snap on a slap tone.
• Artisans painstakingly create the panels for the body of the cajon by selecting and using individual pieces of hardwood. Once the panels are created, the cajon is built using dovetail joints and then finished in a durable satin finish.
• Crafted by hand in Peru by A Tempo Percussion, this cajon is the exact same cajon as Sol Percussion El Artesano - only the logo has changed.
• Includes a free gig bag.
