Immerse yourself in the ancient art of music with our 21-tine kalimba, an instrument that brings soul and mind into harmony. Crafted from premium materials, this kalimba produces captivating tones, perfect for musicians looking for a more personal, creative way to express themselves. Choose this 21-tine kalimba to expand your melodic range compared to a classic 17-tine model. Youâll get 4 extra tines placed in the middle of the set. Because these 4 tines are longer than on a 17-tine kalimba, they produce deeper, lower notes, helping you create music that feels richer and more nuanced. Best of all, you can still play any sheet music written for 17-tine thumb pianosâso itâs all upside.

A cleaning cloth
Two thumb guards
A set of stickers to help you memorize the tines
