What is included
Special tuning at 440 Hz
This version offers special tunings at a reference pitch of 440 Hz. Choose the note sequence from the variant selector. When playing with other instruments, both the reference pitch and the chosen notes need to be compatible.
Kalimbas are reed instruments that originate in southern Africa and can be found there in countless shapes and designs. Our Kalimba B11 'Melody' is carefully handcrafted from solid American cherry (black cherry). The surfaces are treated with vegetable oils and waxes and polished.
When arranging the reeds, we mounted long and short reeds alternately for playing and sound reasons. The six shorter reeds were bent so that their ends are at a higher level than those of the long reeds, so that they can be easily reached by the thumbs. When playing the notes from low to high, the five long reeds are first plucked alternately from the middle outwards with both thumbs - the right thumb starts on reed number 6 - then the six short reeds, also from the middle outwards. The left thumb starts on reed number 5.
The Kalimba B11 electric model is equipped with a piezo pickup and a 6.35 mm jack socket. This allows direct sound pickup on the instrument without the need for an additional microphone.
