Reviews around price (5.00 of 5)

  • I am no musician, however if you are looking for a percussion instrument that produces a nice sound for a reasonable price this is it.
  • The product was well represented, well made and fairly priced.
  • First, I liked the price; if it ended up in my closet I wouldn't feel as bad as I would if I spent 2-4 times as much for a full sized cajon.
  • Great price for a professional quality percussion instrument!

Reviews around wood (5.00 of 5)

  • I am not sure about using it for drum circles - it can be loud, but only if you hit it really hard, and since the thing is made of solid wood your hands will also take a beating
  • Wood is soft to the touch, comfortable hold but disappointing sound for my taste, probably should have returned
  • If your considering buying this drum then wait no longer, the only hesitation i made was deciding whether to get this one or the slightly more pricey meinl snare bongo cajon, but i wanted a solid wood drum, no holes drilled for adjustment screws, completely
  • I know wood reacts to moisture and humidity as well, but not like skins and so far I have not had any issues with this product
  • Its made of very sturdy wood and the multiple sounds that you can get out of this amazing box is awesome

Reviews around product (5.00 of 5)

  • This is the first Cajon product as well as first Meinl product I have ever owned
  • I highly recommend this product to anyone interested in percussion
  • Also, if you're curious about how it sounds, Meil has several product videos on youtube that should satisfy your curiosity.

Reviews around spot (5.00 of 5)

  • Despite all of that, you can make them sound alot like regular bongos too, so not a bad drum for beginners although it takes some time to find all of the numerous sweet spots
  • Does require a bit of playing around with it to find the sweet spot for the different sounds this can produce, especially the lower tone.
  • I say fairly easy because on the small side (drum) you have to hunt a bit for the sweet spot (the place that sounds the best) on the drum.
  • However, after playing it for a while I have finally found the sweet spots, and started developing a better technique, and as a result I have begun enjoying this instrument immensely

Reviews around thing (5.00 of 5)

  • I love this thing and recommend it to anyone whether to practice, looking for a new sound or just to play around with
  • I was engulfed with the beautiful smell of wood and it is a beautiful thing to look at
  • I have to admit this little bongo cajon really surprised me, i honestly wasn't expecting much for $50, even after watching countless video's and reading tons of reviews on it, very few things are ever really that good once you get them in person

Reviews around tone (4.40 of 5)

  • The snares offer a mixture between some tinniness of a metal drum, or drums with metal rims [such as a djembe], with the vibration feeling of traditional snare drums, and a nice solid tone, that gives it a good balance on the larger low tone side
  • Does require a bit of playing around with it to find the sweet spot for the different sounds this can produce, especially the lower tone.
  • It has more tones available than this drum, and is, overall, great
  • The snares offer a mixture between some tinniness of a metal drum, or drums with metal rims [such as a djembe], with the vibration feeling of traditional snare drums, and a nice solid tone, that gives it a good balance on the larger low tone side
  • The LP absolutely has more thought put into it's ergonomics and finishes, easily as high of quality, maybe not more playbility of the surfaces, but definitely brighter tones

Reviews around drum (3.50 of 5)

  • Also remember that in some of the demos, the drums are being played by professionals, who can make a mediocre drum sound awesome
  • Despite all of that, you can make them sound alot like regular bongos too, so not a bad drum for beginners although it takes some time to find all of the numerous sweet spots
  • If your considering buying this drum then wait no longer, the only hesitation i made was deciding whether to get this one or the slightly more pricey meinl snare bongo cajon, but i wanted a solid wood drum, no holes drilled for adjustment screws, completely
  • The snares are clean and this is a really fun drum to play
  • So don't think it is the drum's fault if, right out of the box, it doesn't sound like the demo videos you've seen and heard

Reviews around cajon (3.22 of 5)

  • if I'd bought the slap top cajon first, I might not have bought this one
  • The sound is not as great as the regular Meinl Full Size Hardwood String Cajon
  • if I'd bought the slap top cajon first, I might not have bought this one
  • If you want a VERY cool and enjoyable drum made by Meinl, I strongly suggest checking out and purchasing the Slap Top Cajon.
  • Does this drum sound as good as the Gon Bops bongo cajon
