## Questions & Answers

**Q: What are the dimensions of this item?**
A: WxDXH = 30cm x 30.7cm x 46cmNot sure where the dimensions from Gilberto come from - all are off by at least an inch.Sounds great. Very happy with it.

**Q: Does the mahogany make it sound better over the cheaper rubberwood one?**
A: Absolutely! I get great lows and nice snare slaps from the mahogany.  There's nothing like the real wood feel.

**Q: does it have a matte finish?**
A: yes

**Q: The photos show two different colors on the front.  the description says "stained american white ash." is the front a darker stain or a lighter stain?**
A: Due to the natural differences in wood, it may appear slightly lighter or darker than pictured.  HCAJ1NT is very light as another person mentioned.  Let us know if you have further questions on Meinl Percussion cajons!

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Awesome Value: Looks Great, Sounds Good
*by D***S on August 13, 2017*

I play in two settings where a cajon is already on stage and wanted to be able to practice the specific instrument without spending too much, so I went for this one. For the money, it's great. Fit and finish are excellent. It's sturdy enough that I'm not worried about my kids hurting it. Design/color looks great. Sound is decent. Bass not as warm and touches and slaps not as distinct as nicer ones I've played, even after "tuning," but it's great for playing at home or gigs where the focus is on other instruments/voices which is pretty much all the time for percussionists. Not sure I'd record anything but a demo with it, but for almost anything else, why spend more?

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice tone and construction... Good deal
*by T***A on May 31, 2018*

Nice tone and construction. The top, bottom, and sides have a speckle finish that is fabulous for brushes. I sit on a drum seat, put the cajon on the floor on top of a Meinl seat pad and lean it back to play. There's was bit of a buzz that went away after I tightened the strings and I put a small pillow inside... I'm using it with a Roland EC-10M module. I'm very happy with this cajon.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Meinl Does it Again!
*by D***E on October 10, 2015*

I had never had a cajon before, and needed some sort of portable drum set. The cajon is everything I could ask for and more. The different sounds it can make are truly amazing, and the amount of sound such a small instrument can create never ceases to amaze me. It's great for traveling, as it's really light weight and portable. It's really nice for a great acoustic sound, especially great for backing folk style music. I've tried using brushes on it too and it sounds great like that. Beyond that, I tried a couple cajons at Guitar Center before deciding on this specific one. Others lack the same kind of resonance that this cajon delivers, and they're incapable of being heard over even a small amount of guitar/bass. This cajon holds it's own very well and is overall the best cajon out of the several that I tried. Meinl never ceases to amaze, and with this cajon it looks as though they may have outdone themselves.
