The Meinl Snarecraft Cajon SC80AB is a cajon for beginners and advanced players with an Almond Birch playing surface; it combines articulation with a warm fundamental tone characterised by a focused sound and a wide dynamic range. The Baltic birch wood used here delivers powerful bass tones and crisp slap tones. The expressive snare sound is produced by two sets of built-in snare wires attached to the front panel. The rounded edges also ensure a comfortable playing experience.
