PERFECT "THUMP" RESPONSE: this beater delivers punchy low end tone on a cajon that's dialed-in for playing with an acoustic band; it brings out warmer bass notes with softer attack than standard kick drum beaters
WHY IT MATTERS: standard kick beaters will likely crack a thin wooden cajon frontplate, and they'll have a much brighter sound; Meinl Cajon Beaters are made specifically to draw out a deep, well-rounded "thud" while not damaging your cajon
DRIVING THE SOUND: this beater head is made with soft artificial fleece to produce excellent gentle attack with reduced volume; this is our lowest volume cajon beater that's ideal for quieter settings
OF NOTE: Meinl Cajon Beaters work with all cajon pedals or regular bass drum pedals; the metal stem is sized to strike any cajon in the sweet spot; it's a little shorter than most standard kick drum beaters because it doesn't need to reach as far
THE BOTTOM LINE: get a deeper, more well-rounded tone from your cajon if you play with a pedal, and extend the life of your cajon frontplate
THE BIG PICTURE: Meinl is a family-owned musical instrument manufacturer and brand established 1951 in Germany; our expert German designers have deep relationships with our builders to ensure you're delivered the absolute finest quality
