Meinl Pickup Cajon Box Drum with Internal Strings for Snare Effect - NOT MADE IN CHINA - Makah Burl Frontplate / Baltic Birch Body, Woodcraft Professional, 2-YEAR WARRANTY (PWCP100MB)

FACTORY INSTALLED PICKUPS: comes with three internal Piezo pickups that let you control volume and tone through a PA system or amplifier; turn up your sound in any venue and dial-in your tone. WHY IT MATTERS: cajons aren't naturally loud, so if you play with larger combos or in bigger venues, you'll need a volume boost to be heard; these pickups lift the ceiling of normal cajon applications so you can cut through the mix. HOW IT WORKS: the cajon is equipped with two sets of fixed micro-coiled steel cajon strings for snare effect; two pickups are placed near the strings and the other on the bass area to produce the most natural tone (you can play without using the pickups). GO DEEPER: we craft the cajon body from Baltic birch wood, which also used in high-end drum sets for players serious about sound; then it's finished with a highly responsive makah burl frontplate. OF NOTE: the pickups don't require batteries to work; just plug into an amp or PA with a quarter-inch cable, adjust the dials, and start playing (cable not included). ZOOM IN: there are two dials and two quarter-inch jacks; VOLUME: set your levels, TONE: adjust for more bass or snare, OUTPUT: send your signal to an amp or PA, LINK: join other Meinl Percussion passive pickup instruments through the cajon's system. BY THE NUMBERS: the Meinl Pickup Woodcraft Professional Cajon measures 11 3/4"" W x 19 3/4"" H x 12"" D and weighs 9 lbs; its full size has enough volume for any room, and it's made to last with a solid frame that supports adults and children.
