Description

The Meinl HCAJ1AWA Headliner Series String Cajon combines a responsive American White Ash frontplate with adjustable micro-coiled steel strings to produce crisp snare sounds and clear projection.

Designed to work equally well for live performance, studio sessions and acoustic gigs, it delivers the classic cajon combination of defined slap tones and a strong rhythmic foundation without the space or setup required by a full drum kit.

Who Is This For?

A strong choice for percussionists and acoustic performers looking for a versatile string cajon with more control over its snare response. Its clear projection makes it particularly suitable for live and studio use, while its compact footprint works well for unplugged performances where a conventional drum kit isn't practical.

Adjustable String Response

The HCAJ1AWA uses adjustable micro-coiled steel strings to create its crisp snare character. String tension can be adjusted using the supplied hex key, allowing the response to be tailored to suit different playing styles and musical settings.

American White Ash Frontplate

A stained American White Ash frontplate provides an attractive natural contrast against the black textured body while contributing to the cajon's clear and articulate projection. From deeper central strokes to sharper edge accents, the playing surface provides plenty of scope for expressive percussion.

Designed for Performance

Four silicone feet help isolate the cajon from the floor, reducing unwanted vibration while protecting the surface beneath it. The textured composite body also provides an effective anti-slip sitting surface for greater stability while playing.
