Kalimba 17 Keys - Beech and Blue Epoxy Resin

Kalimba with 17 tines in beech wood and blue epoxy resin

Solid beech meets transparent blue epoxy resin: two birds appear to fly inside the body of this kalimba. Every piece comes out of the pour differently. Seventeen steel tines in C major.

Beech and epoxy resin

The wood gives warmth, the resin clarity and weight. The body is a flat board with no resonance chamber, which makes it particularly stable.

17 tines in C major

Numbered tines, with a songbook that sets out melodies as sequences of numbers. Playable with no prior experience.

Why Resonance

Every instrument is tuned and sound-checked before it leaves us. Dispatched within 24 hours, insured and tracked. 30 days to play it at home: if the sound does not convince you, we take the instrument back. If you are unsure which model to choose, you can reach us before and after your purchase.

17 keys is the easiest place to start, and it gives you the widest choice of tabs and practice pieces. More tines give you extra melodic room. If you are torn between two models, go with the sound that speaks to you first. The number of keys sets the range, not your talent.
