Musfunny 17 Keys Kalimba Thumb Piano: Portable Mbira Finger Pianos Musical Instrument Gifts for Kids Adults Beginners - Mahogany Wood Handheld Piano with Tune Hammer, Music Book

I’m so thrilled with this. I saw videos of people playing the kalimba and wanted to give it a try. I’m not formally trained in any instruments, but I can play basic things (like one note at a time) by ear. This came already tuned so it was easy to pick up and play! Twinkle twinkle little star is always a good start and I figured it out in seconds. Even if you’re just playing around and hitting random tines, it still sounds nice and really soothing. It comes with a lot of accessories that make it a great all-in-one starter pack. The manual is awesome and teaches you how to read tabs so you can follow along with sheet music (or eventually write your own!) and even teaches you how to make a “WAH” sound (as it’s called in the manual) that gives your notes a cool 80s vibrato synth feel. I’m really happy I got this because now I have a newfound hobby that I can do anywhere!

I love this thing! I thought it was taste, but my coworker has one too! The music it makes could make me fall asleep!!

Got this Kalimba to just play around with, expecting it to be like the other kalimbas I've had in the past. Boy was I wrong. Starting from the presentation and packaging I already knew it was going to be different. Once removed from the well packed box and separated from all it's goodies, I marveled at the fantastic wood finish on the case. I proceeded to grab my tuner like I had to do with all my previous kalimbas. To my amazement, my tuner was not needed. All keys were perfectly tuned and I was ready to rock and roll (well the best you can on a kalimba). If you're in the market for a kalimba, I implore you to grab this one. Sure most of these look similar, but from experience I assure you this one is superior than others. Not just fit and finish, but overall tone and warmth. Beautiful

Great gift

The media could not be loaded.  I love it and it is a really good quality for the money. The higher notes might be more rich in tone in higher quality kalimbas but I’m satisfied.... except my A4 or 6 key seems to be lower set then the others and it’s hard to make cords with it at certain angles or use it as a grace note. Also my thumb guards weren’t really needed and broke day one. Only been playing it for 2 weeks and did the songs from memory so apologies on the video.

The Kalimba is VERY easy to learn how to play especially if the user has any prior experience reading music. However the numbering system on the keys would help those just learning as well. This particular one arrived 2 days ago in tune & so far has remained in tune. Much more beautiful in person than pictures and much higher quality feel than I expected it to be given the price. So far I am very pleased with the product and highly recommend getting a song book along with it as well.

Small and light to take everywhere. Prior to this, I had an 8-tone one from Europe that I bought to give to my 8 year old nephew. This one looks like it was crafted with care and it sounds good.

This is a wonderful instrument. Small enough to hold in your hands (or put on the table) and plunk the fingers. There are included 2 rubber finger protectors and instructions. This instruments was boxed well and arrived safe from harm. Can’t wait to sit down and actually take some time to learn how to play it. It seems the notes are arranged differently than one would think. Sound is beautiful, tho!
