Steel Tongue Drum 8 Notes - For Beginners, 15 cm

Steel tongue drum with 8 notes - for beginners, 15 cm, C major pentatonic or D major

The smallest tongue drum in our collection: 15 cm across, 600 g, eight tongues. You choose the tuning, C major pentatonic or D major diatonic, and the colour, silver or black. An instrument that fits in any bag.

Two tunings to choose from

C major pentatonic sounds open and cannot be played wrong. D major diatonic gives you the full scale for melodies. Both versions sit well alongside larger tongue drums if you want to add one later.

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.

Fewer note fields keep the start simple and the instrument compact. More notes give you extra room for melodies. 440 Hz is the better choice if you want to play alongside other instruments, while 432 Hz suits playing on your own. If you are unsure, go by the sound and pick the one that speaks to you.
