Meinl Turbo Slaptop Cajon

Hey, Im Brendan Jones from H91 Drum School in Galway City, providing both online and private one to one drum coaching. After using the Meinl Turbo Slaptop Cajon for 5 months I think I have all the information i need to do a review.

Right off the bat I want to let you know I love this drum. This Slaptop Cajon is so much fun to play, the position of it sitting on your lap rather than having to bend over to reach the playing surface of a traditional Cajon makes even a long gig so much more pleasurable.

The body of the Meinl Turbo Slaptop Cajon is made from Baltic Birch with the playing surface being Walnut. The snare effect takes the pain away from slap tones and it has forward sound projection for the bass and high sounds and textures. This is all helped by the in built pick up with a 6.3 mm mono jack input/output with controls for the Snare and Bass.

In the video you can hear the sound samples. In my opinion, when talking about sound, the Slaptop Cajon beats the tradition Cajon (at the same price point) on all levels bar the bass. Coming in at under 200€ £ or $ its worth every penny. If you’re in the market and are looking to get a new cajon, maybe your back is causing trouble during cajon gigs or you’re looking for a cajon you can plug straight into the mixer for a closer sound then definitely give this a look.
