Small acoustic gigs don't typically demand the sound of a full kit, and that's where the Meinl Cajon Drum Set can turn you into a hero. This 3-piece acoustic percussion set covers the big three - bass, snare, and hi-hats - and then some. The part of the kick drum is played by a traditional birch cajon without snares or strings plus a double-chain-drive cajon pedal for hands-free performance. The included Mountable Cajon Snare is ideal for hand or stick playing, and it mounts to the same Low Hat Stand that holds the bundled HCS 13" hi-hats. Add on extras such as Meinl Bamboo multi sticks, a Luis Conte signature shaker, a blanket, and a heavy-duty nylon bag, and the Meinl Cajon Drum Set is ready for any acoustic gig.

Snare-less birchwood cajon delivers bold bass tone





The Cajon Drum Set delivers deep and moving low-end thump, thanks to the birchwood cajon at the center. This traditional cajon comes without snares or strings, keeping the bass notes clear and clean. Couple it with the included Meinl Cajon Pedal, and you have a hands-free acoustic bass drum that's perfect for any intimate setting.





Mountable Cajon Snare adds snap to your setup





To add the right amount of snap to your beat, Meinl includes a 7.5" Cajon Snare. This hollow rubberwood snare drum mounts easily to the included hi-hat stand, and you can comfortably set it up for either left- or right-hand performance. Sweetwater drummers really dig the way this undersized snare responds to both fingertips and sticks, and we're sure you'll love it too.





13" HCS hi-hats provide satisfying sizzle and slosh





No kit is complete without cymbals, and the included Meinl 13" HCS hi-hats fill the role perfectly. Mounted to the included Meinl Low Hat Stand, both your snare drum and your hi-hats will be in easy reach as you lay down the rhythm.





Essential accessories add extra versatility to this kit





With kick, snare, and hi-hats covered, the Meinl Cajon Drum Set would already be perfect for any acoustic gig, but it also comes loaded with cool extras. For instance, you get a set of Meinl Bamboo multi sticks, which are particularly great for this unique collection of percussion instruments. Also, there's a Luis Conte artist series signature shaker in this package, allowing you to add silky smooth textures to your rhythms. A Meinl Cajon Blanket adds an extra layer of comfort to your setup, and when it's time to pick up and go, the included Meinl Standard Cajon Gig Bag is extremely handy. All told, the Meinl Cajon Drum Set is an amazing value.
