Overview
Kalimba LINGTING 17 Keys in B Tuning Desktop Kalimba Made of Rosewood Brown Thumb Piano with External Pickup for Beginners

The LINGTING desktop kalimba with 17 keys is a popular type of thumb piano, ideal for learning first melodies and well-known songs. The body is made of rosewood with a dense grain and warm brown hue, which the manufacturer describes as hardwood with a clear and ringing tone. The instrument is tuned to the key of B, and the steel keys are securely held on a metal bridge. It is played with the thumbs of both hands, making it accessible for beginners who have never played any instrument before. The kalimba is easily portable and fits into a backpack or handbag.

The desktop design is a flat kalimba without a resonance hole, resulting in a softer and quieter sound compared to models with a hollow body. To allow for playing for more listeners, an external pickup is included, which you attach to the body of the instrument and connect to an amplifier or speaker with a cable. The board is thinner than that of box kalimbas but slightly heavier, ensuring it sits well in the hands while playing. At the ends of the upper bridge are metal rings to which you can attach a vibrating chain and decorative tassel, which are also included in the package.

The kalimba comes tuned and ready to play. If any key becomes out of tune over time, you can adjust it with the tuning hammer: shortening the key raises the pitch, while lengthening it lowers the pitch. A tuning app on your phone is sufficient for checking. The note sticker and coloured key stickers will help you orientate, and you can learn your first songs using the included manual. After playing, wipe the keys with a dry cloth and store the kalimba in the case, away from moisture and direct sunlight. Rosewood is a natural wood, so the shade and grain may vary slightly between individual pieces.

The LINGTING kalimba made of rosewood features 17 steel keys in B tuning and a flat desktop body without a resonance hole. Thanks to the included pickup, you can connect it to an amplifier and enhance the sound as needed. The zip case, jute bag, tuning hammer, manual, and stickers are included, so you can start playing right away. The instrument is appreciated by beginners as well as players who already own a kalimba and want a different tuning. It also makes a practical gift for children and adults looking for a simple musical instrument for relaxation.
