Steel Tongue Drum Solstice 8 Notes - Handpan Look

Solstice steel tongue drum with 8 notes - the look of a handpan, the simplicity of a tongue drum

The Solstice looks like a handpan and plays like a tongue drum. Eight tongues, a warm sound and a shape that holds its own on any table, for a fraction of the price of a real handpan.

The look of a handpan, the entry point of a tongue drum

If you love the sound of a handpan but do not want to spend several hundred pounds yet, this is the most honest compromise. The Solstice sounds softer and shorter than a hand-tuned handpan, but you are in command of it straight away and it is considerably tougher.

Eight tongues, tuned to agree

Every note fits with the others. Play with your fingers, or use the mallets supplied for a clearer attack.

Who this model is for

For anyone who wants to try a handpan before buying one. For meditation, yoga and unwinding. If you then want to take the step, our hand-tuned instruments are in the Handpans collection.
