JustDrums are excited to introduce the Meinl Cocktail Cajon Kit by Meinl Percussion Percussion . Ready to be delivered to any location in the UK. An acoustic take on a cocktail kit set up the Meinl Cocktail Cajon Kit offers players a wide range of sounds from bass and snare to bongo cajons and a tom – all with wood cajon-style instruments. At the centre of this kit is the Meinl Cocktail Cajon which is played just like a kick drum. Made to be mounted on the Cocktail Cajon are the included Meinl Pickup Snare Bongo Cajon with high and low pitch notes and Pickup Tom Tap which all come together to give you a full cajon set sound. Each of these three add-ons include their own L-shaped rod that attach to the cajon with its standard eye-bolt mounts. In addition to the cajon-style drums this kit also comes with a foot pedal and soft foam cajon beater plus special Husk Brushes that are safe to use on the wood finishes. The brushes deliver a mellow yet precise percussive sound. Every drum in the Cocktail Cajon Kit is outfitted with its own Piezo pickup and high-quality output jack so you can plug in and turn the volume up on the whole set when extra amplification is needed. Please note: audio cables not included.

Percussion

Percussion covers a wide and diverse family of instruments that create sound through being struck, shaken, or scraped. It includes everything from drum kits and hand drums to auxiliary instruments such as shakers, tambourines, cowbells, blocks, and mallet percussion. Percussion adds rhythm, texture, and colour to music across virtually every genre.

Hand percussion instruments like congas, bongos, djembes, and cajons are played using the hands or simple techniques, while auxiliary percussion is often added to drum kits to expand rhythmic and tonal options. Mallet percussion, such as xylophones and similar instruments, introduces melody as well as rhythm, broadening the musical role percussion can play.

Percussion is used in live performance, studio recording, education, and therapy, making it one of the most versatile areas of music making. Whether providing subtle rhythmic detail or driving the main groove, percussion instruments allow players to shape feel, dynamics, and expression in ways that support and enhance the music.
