 Not bad for 100 bucksDec 26, 2009
By E.C.
"Percussive Blast Guy"
I was a little worried by some of the feedback on this product. One remark was that it had an awful snare sound. Once I received the Cajon, I got the same worrisome sound. I simply tightened the snare wires with the provided allen wrench and the sound turned into a good sound. It's not a masterpiece of percussion instruments; it's a somewhat inexpensive mid-quality instrument.
This being my first Cajon, I didn't want to go all out on a 300/400 dollar instrument. I'm reasonably satisfied with this instrument, and I can't complain that it's not louder or more refined in sound. It's actually a good instrument for the price.

 needs to be built right to get a good soundDec 06, 2009
By ucfmat
I've been messing around with my new cajon for a while now, trying to tune it just right, but with the particular one I received I cannot seem to get it to give enough snare sound before you start to just hearing twanging from the guitar strings.
I was incredibly dissapointed after I received this specific item. I was looking forward to playing it so much, but it just couldn't give the right sounds. I looked through the hole in the back and noticed the piece of wood that helps apply tension to the strings is off kilter...and this is due to having one set of strings being much longer than the other set.
I went out and played the exact same version in a Sam Ash music store and it sounded great...better than the other much more expensive models they had there. This leads me to believe that I got the short stick on the one I received. If I had received the same one that I found in the store, then this would have gotten 5 stars easy. I loved the sound of that one.

An excellent basic cajonDec 22, 2010
By Dan Arias
I first saw a cajon in a church band and was impressed at the sound such a small box could make. I checked the local music stores' collection of cajons. While there were some that could put out more bass sound, or had adjustment knobs for the snare string mechanism, or were even had amplifiers, the Meinl Headliner served our purpose for the best price. The Headliner comes with a hex wrench to adjust the snare string tension from below. The faceplate can also be adjusted with a phillips screwdriver. We are amateur musicians and play at home for our family. The cajon makes a wonderful simple percussion instrument that anyone can play--even the kids. It is also makes a good seat for playing other instruments.

CajonFeb 27, 2009
By Kazz
When Mic'd from any angle it sounds great. Good deep tones. However the sound is a little bland without. Good deal for the price.
