Kalimba 24 Keys - Chromatic, Two Tiers

Kalimba with 24 tines in hevea wood - chromatic, on two tiers

Every semitone on one kalimba: the second row of tines sits below the first and carries the notes an ordinary kalimba does not have. Twenty-four tines on two tiers, a hevea flat board, 18 x 12 x 2 cm. That lets you play pieces in any key.

Two tiers, every note

The natural notes on top, the semitones below, like the white and black keys of a piano. Minor, major, modulations: all possible.

Hevea wood

Pale, even, light. The tone is clear and dry.

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.

Yes, within 30 days of receiving it. How the return works and which conditions apply is set out in our refund policy.
