BOX Kalimba – 15tone hollow F#minor kalimba

279,00

This handcrafted hollow kalimba is made from high-quality alder wood. The internal sound chamber is carved out by hand from a single block of wood. This method significantly reduces internal resonance and eliminates the unwanted “nasal” echo that is typical for hollow kalimbas.

The result is a clean, balanced tone comparable to that of a flatboard kalimba, while still preserving the softness and natural color of the kalimba’s wooden sound. As with all our instruments, each note sounds clear and precise – exactly what you expect from our kalimbas.

Thanks to the thoughtfully designed bass-reflex hollows – one larger at the front and two smaller ones at the back – the kalimba also allows for expressive wah-wah effects. This will be appreciated not only by advanced players but also by those looking for a new sonic experience.

This kalimba is tuned in the diatonic F# minor scale, making it ideal for intuitive play. Measuring 17 x 14 cm, it fits comfortably in adult hands. Kalimba has 15 tines and is made in a single-row layout, which makes it suitable for both beginners and professionals.

Only two kalimbas are available – prepared immediately to be shipped.
You will get a practical pouch for kalimba transfer, lifetime service and lifetime warranty as a gift.

We are also accepting pre-orders with guaranteed delivery before Christmas.

Description

Sound tuning

Maybe you remember the “do re mi fa so la si do” exercise from the music classes at your elementary school. It’s an indication of the seven tones in a diatonic scale. If you’ve just hummed this in your mind, you sang one octave.

This kalimba is tuned in diatonic F# minor tuning (F♯, G♯, A, B, C♯, D, E).

Packed in a hand-painted box

Every instrument gets our attention. From choosing the right tree to work with, all the way to the final packaging, which will come to your doorstep. Everything is handmade. So is the cover box, which we paint by hand as a tribute to the instrument itself. It’s not only beautiful, but it can also be used as a resonance surface while playing.
