The Mahalo MPJ1 Lap Top Cajon is a practical and fun alternative to the traditional box cajon. It features two 10″ (255mm) wood playing surfaces and a 2.2″ (56mm) deep shell with inbuilt snare.
Thought to be a descendant of similar box-shaped percussion instruments from West Africa, the cajón was developed by African musicians who, due to the scarcity of traditional African drums in Peru, repurposed wooden crates into percussion instruments.
The cajón became integral to Afro-Peruvian music and has since gained prominence in various musical genres worldwide, including salsa, flamenco, jazz, and beyond; its influence extends far beyond its humble beginnings.
The The Mahalo MPJ1 Lap Top Cajon is a practical and fun alternative to the traditional box cajon. It features two 10″ (255mm) wood playing surfaces and a 2.2″ (56mm) deep shell with inbuilt snare.
This versatile instrument boasts two distinct playing surfaces: the top is ideal for producing Flamenco (snare) sounds, while the bottom surface delivers sound reminiscent of a traditional Peruvian (conga) cajon. The round sound port provides enhanced bass response.
The The Mahalo MPJ1 Lap Top Cajon may be played comfortably on your lap (secured by the included waist or shoulder strap,) and its compact size makes it the perfect classroom or rehearsal instrument, or a convenient travel companion. Play it at the beach, around the campfire, at home or in small performances.
