Super super good quality kalimba!! It came in about 8 days. The tines are so soft to pluck and the sound is so so pleasant- similar to kimi kalimba but slightly louder. Only thing about this is the sticker note labels- it’s transparent so it’s slightly hard to read against the metal tines, and also it’s so small so it’s so tedious to stick them onto the narrow tines… Overall super pleased w this purchase though! The box came with a really good packaging that protected the kalimba well. It’s well tuned!

What an amazing Kalimba. Contruction quality is really high, and the box comes with all kinds of goodies, like stickers and a tuning hammer. And there is also a case, which is really solid and well made. The kalimba itself sounds absolutely beautiful. All the notes (even the highest ones) sound and vibrate really well. The wood is pretty thick and big and this means that the resonance is really high. The price is also insanely low, considering what you get. I highly recommend this, both for new and experienced players.

I’m delighted! This purchase met all my expectations! The parcel was securely packed in an inflatable protective film. The instrument sounds divine, it sits well in the hands, I really like the red-burgundy color of the wood. Cover for kalimba and additional accessories pleased me with their quality. The sound of kalimba with a chain is literally fascinating.

Kalimba is amazing! The notes of the third octave are quite clear and clean, in purity compared to the HEXO kalimba. But unlike gecko, the sound is loud, ringing, although it does not drown, the sound looks like kalimba from aprilyang, but a little quieter. The keys are pressed gently, it is easy to slide on them in the chord. The tool is thick and quite heavy, but in the hands lies comfortably and the hands do not get tired. The pickup in the set is bad, it is possible to have a good combo to achieve sound through it. The cover is excellent, durable. Unexpectedly I was pleased with the tassle, with it the kalimba becomes elegant. Packed well in box and air film. The sound of it on YouTube is a lot and it’s really as cool as on those videos, take it will not regret it!

The kalimba comes configured, the wood is perfectly polished, looks expensive and high quality. In the kit stickers for learning, a hammer for self-tuning, a cloth, case and manual with description and melodies. Gorgeous instrument!!! Thank you for the fast delivery!

Very cool kalimba

Lovely kalimba, lovely accessories. I was pleasantly surprised. Especially with the hard case. Thank you. The only disappointment is included pickup cable. It is cheap, hard to use and the sound is not great. It struggles to pick kalimba’s sounds and easy picks incidental sounds like wire twisting. Seems like it is much more sensitive to higher frequencies. Still for the price paid it is very nice package.

This is an excellent Kalimba. It has a beautiful sound and comes with quite a few accessories and a good sturdy case. The store packaged the item really well. It took quite a while to arrive but probably due to slow shipping during lockdown.
