About this item

  • SEVERAL NEW SOUNDS: Meinl Retractable Nylon Brushes have more nuance on a cajon than your hands; they produce punchy bass, crisp highs, and a satisfying brush effect that gives you more tonal spread
  • WHY IT MATTERS: playing these brushes is a fun way to mix up your usual cajon grooves; incorporate complex patterns while expanding the range of your cajon's sound
  • RETRACTABLE NYLON BRUSH SPECS: 13.545" long, 0.625" diameter grip, medium-light weight, sold in pairs
  • CATCH UP QUICK: these brushes are made in U.S.A. with premium nylon bristles; nylon provides the most flexibility, giving you nice slap tones, lush sweeps, and punchy low end
  • ONE BIG THING: the bristles fully retract into the handles without a traditional push/pull rod, making this brush more comfortable for playing on a cajon
  • ZOOM IN: the smooth grip is sized to accommodate any hand position while playing cajon, drum kit, or percussion instruments
  • THE BOTTOM LINE: Meinl Retractable Nylon Brushes expand your capabilities on the cajon
  • THE BIG PICTURE: Meinl is a family-owned musical instrument manufacturer and brand established 1951 in Germany; our expert German designers have deep relationships with our builders to ensure you're delivered the absolute finest quality


The retractable nylon Cajon brush is ideal for players looking for a crisp sound. From light sweeping motions to full stroke backbeat, these brushes deliver definition, clarity, and cut. The heavy nylon wires are fully retractable into the lightweight grip. All Cajon Brushes have a durable construction that is safe to use on the Cajon.

I thought I'd try a set of brushes to get an additional sound on the cajon - they are great! SO MUCH easier on my hands than playing bare-handed. You can still get a good bass thump by using the rubber part, even with the brushes pulled out. I am not likely go to back to playing bare-handed from now on!

These are great. Got them yesterday and they’re good brushes for cajon. I wanted to address people that are marking the face of their cajon: you WILL mark the face of your cajon over time if you hit it with the edge of the plastic sheath. Just by the nature of the angle you play the cajon, it’s easy to make contact this way. Either you angle the cajon back (which is a common playing stance) or you lean a bit forward to adjust. Otherwise, I honestly can’t imagine you’d do alot of damage/anything beyond normal wear and tear.

These are great for my portable cajon. I like that they retract as they can be easily stored. They are not something I will use often but at this price and convenience, they are a good value.

These are perfect for shuffle type percussion on the Meinl Cajon. They are lightweight, well balanced, and appear well made. They sound perfect with the Cajon, especially for soft rhythmic beats, and are a nice compliment to using the Cajon hands only. I found that having the adjustable length of the brushes allows for a nice change of sound, including a deepening sound, or even a 'beat' with stick only, especially when targeting the bass section of the Cajon.These bring a nice variety of sound to the Cajun and make a versatile instrument (Cajon) even more versatile, and allow for a pleasant "shuffle" pace sound that goes so nicely with Americana, folk, and country blues music. If you like the "unplugged sound", a la Clapton, these sounds really nice with the Meinl Cajon.

O.K. I have to admit I suffer from SAS (stick aquisition syndrome). These retractable brushes are a little heavier than some other similar retractable brushes I' ve used. These are useable on snare drums and cymbals as well as on cajons and other hand drums. On drum kits these are a nice alternative to wire brushes and a lighter alternative for use on cajons than those big fat cajon brushes or broomsticks. I like these a lot but having said that I like more I love having a lot of choices for which sticks to use for whatever song comes up. Specifically, these meinl brushes are quality made, have a nice balanced feel and are reasonably priced. I consider it a nice investment and another great addition to my "arsenal" of sticks & brushes.

Regalo molto apprezzato per un amico batterista, per suonare il cajón soft. Consegna veloce. Consiglio a tutti, perfecto per suonare con il cajón e non solo.

I bought these drum sticks to use with a cahon, and they are ideal. The ability to change the length of the brushes allows a variety of sounds to be produced. The are robust and easy to store, and the plastic bristles are soft but hardy . My only tiny negative observation is that the round handles can turn in the fingers whilst playing but, once aware of that, it is easily overcome. However, oblong or square handle profile might be better. Despite that, still delighted with them and the range of effects they allow me to produce.
