Meinl - RATTAN CAXIXI (Medium)

The caxixi is a traditional Brazilian percussion instrument from the rattle family, originally used in Afro-Brazilian music. Today, it's widely used as a rhythmic effect across various musical genres. Played by shaking it up and down, the internal beads strike either the woven sides or the hard base, creating dynamic sound variations.

MEINL Percussion Caxixis are handcrafted with a durable woven body and a natural coconut shell bottom. This design produces a bright, high-pitched tone with clear articulation and excellent projection—perfect for adding sharp, expressive accents to any percussion setup.
