Review: Great Cajon Brushes! - Great brushes for my "bass" cajon!! I use one of these brushes often, when performing with my cajon! The plastic bristles make a much better sound on the wooden cajon, than the old fashioned metal brushes, and they slide into the handle, which makes carrying them around for gigs. . . . . perfect!
Review: nice, well made. Nylon works well for my cajon - I got this based on reading the review of others. This not the cheapest, nor is it priced among the top tier brushes for professional percussionists. That suits me as someone who just noodles around with a cajon. It works and appears well made. I got it to use on my cajon which probably would be damaged by wire brushes. It also worked well on the man-made "head" on my banjo. I need to fashion a cushioned or leather carry bag to protect them when not in use. The handles are a tough plastic, but it could be crushed is stepped on or something heavy is unintentionally placed on top of it.

## Features

- 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

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Do you retract them by just pushing them back into the handles?  I was expecting more of a mechanism, like my cymbal brushes.**
A: They do not retract.... What you see here is how they are. There are a couple of bands that can be rolled up to keep the brushes together but that's it. They do play quite well and I like the sound on my Cajon.... Good luck.

**Q: Would these create enough noise against 8 inch hit hats for small coffee house gigs?**
A: I think they probably would. They’re not like normal brushes. The bristles are thicker nylon so that they create more sound when they hit the side of a cajon. Out of the different brushes available, I think these are the best.

**Q: Why do they have a prop 65 warning?**
A: Hi there - 
We saw your comment about the warning label on your product and wanted to take a moment to make things clear for you.

California Proposition 65 entitles Californian consumers to special warnings for products that contain chemicals determined by the state of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm if those products expose consumers to such chemicals above a certain level set by California.

A bit of background information is needed to understand what Proposition 65 warning notices really mean.  It’s important to understand that a Proposition 65 warning notice does not mean a product is dangerous or harmful.  The threshold exposure limits that the State of California has set for many chemicals on the two Proposition 65 lists are far below the “safe” limits set by other regulatory agencies, such as the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, various European health agencies, and the World Health Organization.

When a manufacturer includes a Proposition 65 warning notice on a product it does not mean the product is unsafe.  Rather, the notice is intended to inform Californian consumers of the presence of a listed chemical so the consumer can make an informed decision when purchasing the product.

Please see the link for more information about the Prop 65 warning.

**Q: Can these brushes be used on normal drumheads and symbols?**
A: Don't know for sure, but I don't see why not. They might not sound like metal brushes, though.
