MEINL PERCUSSION RAISES THE BAR... OVER AGAIN
12Jan 2012
Dear readers,
Greetings from our German headquarters - we wish you all the best for 2012!
I proudly can say that we are very optimistic for the new year due to our felicitous novelties. We have more than 60 new items that we are going to introduce at the upcoming NAMM show in sunny California next week!
Yes, we raised the bar over again :-)
We have so many new high-lights that I find it difficult to call one a favorit. But I definitely love the new ARTISAN EDITION CAJONS and the ARTISAN EDITION TAMBOURINES - real gems!!!
The new SLAP-TOP CAJON which allows the player many great possibilities is also very cool... It's just like a drum kit on your lap and absolutely comfortable to play - make sure to check it out!
Same for the MARACLAVES, the MULTI-JINGLE STICK, or the UNIVERSAL TRIANGLE! Man, I could go on and on...
Just visit our booth if you have a chance (NAMM show, Anaheim, booth #3454). We'll be happy to show you our new inventions.
MEINL artist Joannie Labelle will be at our booth, helping me to demonstrate the new instruments.
If you're not able to attend the show - download our new catalog here.
Sincerely,
Mario Schmitt
PS. Find enclosed two new videos. More will follow soon.

I just bought a 20-inch daff from Meinl. The skin is much softer than my tar or bendir -- which I can tighten because it's natural. I'm not used to have soggy synthetic skin and I wonder if that is the way a daf is supposed to sound.

Hi Audrey,
it depends on your taste. Which version did you buy - the one with the True Feel head or the woven head version? The woven head produces more warmth while the True Feel head has more attack. Our Daf is not tunable in order to make it super lightweight.
