Product Description
The Meinl Turbo Slaptop 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.
Product Features
NO REACH ISSUES the Meinl Turbo Slaptop Cajon puts the playing surface in your lap so you can play longer without feeling uncomfortable from leaning over; all sounds are right in front of you in a natural position
WHY IT MATTERS it saves your back if you can't deal with leaning down on a standard cajon; plus, it's easy to get used to if you're a new or casual player (anyone can learn in minutes)
HOW IT WORKS like a mini drum kit, the walnut playing surface produces deep bass and crisp snare tones; these sounds vary depending on where you strike with your hands (MIDDLE bass, LEFT AND RIGHT SIDES snare)
GO DEEPER the resonating body has a large forward-facing bass port that projects toward your audience; this gives you fuller low-end tone
ONE TAKEAWAY the different sounds don't bleed into each other so you have clear separation of notes; this makes your playing more expressive
THE BOTTOM LINE you can play alongside guitars at acoustic shows, with your praise band, in the studio, or at outdoor jams; the durable modern composite body reflects sound and has four silicone feet to keep it protected
BY THE NUMBERS this turbo size Slaptop Cajon measures 18 1/2" long x 9 1/2" wide x 14 1/4" tall and weighs 8 lbs; its large size has enough volume for any room, and it's about as loud as a traditional cajon
