Overview
Kalimba LINGTING 17 Keys in C Tuning Resonant Box 18 x 13 cm Sandalwood Brown Thumb Piano with Case and Finger Protectors

The Kalimba LINGTING with 17 keys in C tuning is a classic thumb piano with a hollow resonant box, suitable for beginners as well as experienced players. The body measures 18 x 13 cm and is made from sandalwood with a distinctive grain pattern and warm brown hue. C tuning is the most common, and most songbooks and sheet music for kalimba are written for it. The steel keys are mounted on a metal bridge and produce a pleasant and full tone when played with the thumbs. The instrument is easily portable and fits into a backpack.

The resonant box features a round sound hole on the front with a decorative inscription and two sound holes on the back. By alternately covering these with your fingers, you can create a wavering effect known as wah, which adds an interesting expression to melodies. At the ends of the upper bridge, there are metal loops for hanging a vibrating chain and a decorative tassel. The upper part of the body tapers to a width of 10.5 cm, making the kalimba comfortable to hold in the hands.

The kalimba is shipped tuned. If a key becomes out of tune over time, you can adjust it with the tuning hammer: shorter keys sound higher, longer keys sound lower, and you can verify the result with a tuning app on your phone. The finger protectors protect the thumbs during extended play, and the stickers assist with key orientation. After playing, wipe the keys with a dry cloth and store the instrument in the case in a dry place away from direct sunlight. The grain and hue of the wood may vary slightly from piece to piece.

The LINGTING box kalimba offers 17 steel keys in the popular C tuning and a body made of sandalwood with sound holes for the wah effect. Thanks to the resonant box, it sounds loud even without an amplifier and is suitable for playing at home, outdoors, and while travelling. The package includes a zip case, jute bag, tuning hammer, finger protectors, manual, and stickers, so you can simply unpack the kalimba and start playing. The instrument is suitable for children, adults, and for teaching, as well as a gift for anyone who loves music.
