meinl headliner cajon solo

A little solo on the cajon. Its a Meinl Headliner series Cajon. Its easy to use and tunable. It has a lovely snare sound to it and if tuned right a deep bass too.
Sounds best with a bass drum mic at the back and a sm57 at the front.

The tips of your fingers work well all around the front of the cajon, aswell as the palm of your hand.

I need some help. I picked one up yesterday. I can't adjust the sizzle right at all. I've gone from tight to very loose and all that happens is annoying long rattler after any thing is hit on the play face.

Sorry for the late reply. i've found if you tune it on the front bottom at bit loose but the top tight then you get a good sound, you just have to get rid of the bad frequency hum which gives the long rattle. its the same principle for a normal snare or tom when tuning really. i think you'll always get a small rattle but i think that adds a nice effect, its how you use it!

you could always put some gaffer inside to stop the rattle but it might hinder the overall sound.
