17 Notes - Maple and Acacia - KL1706H
Sound Hole Kalimbas
The Meinl Sonic Energy Sound Hole Kalimba is a great sounding melodic instrument with unique characteristics, not only in sound but also in design. All 17 notes on the scale of C Major complement each other, why you will never play a wrong note. The material is high-quality maple and acacia wood.
The traditional sound hole of this Kalimba creates warmer tones and a longer sustain.
The Kalimba comes with a case so you can protect it from scratches and other damage. To remove stains from your Kalimba and to keep it safe afterward, a microfiber cloth and a cotton bag are also included. Besides that, we have added a tuning hammer in case you want to retune your Kalimba.
The Kalimba originally comes from Africa. It is a centuries-old instrument, also known as "Mbira" and "Sansa" or simply "thumb piano". There are metal reeds placed on a wooden resonance box, which are plucked with the thumbs to produce a metallically fine sound.

From music to meditation
The great thing about Meinl Sonic Energy Kalimbas, besides their accessibility to anyone, is their ability to create a calming effect on your senses.
Right away, you'll feel a soothing, ambient tone fill the space around you as you pluck the steel tines (or keys). The top grade materials we use deliver a pleasant and pure sound that has the power to shift your focus and clear your mind.
End of day ritual or sound immersion experience
Play the kalimba to help reduce anxiety or stress before going to sleep. For sound practitioners, you can incorporate these kalimbas into sound baths or meditation sessions. Yoga instructors may find them useful for signaling a change in pose. Of course, musicians can have their fun with them too.
Pre-tuned and ready to play right out of the box
Multi-purpose
Equally useful for sound therapy as they are in traditional musical settings, these kalimbas serve a multitude of purposes for any type of player.
Meinl Sonic Energy Kalimbas easily fit in your hands for a comfortable playing experience. They are designed to be played by anyone, regardless of age or skill.
Play indoors or outside with a group or by yourself to aid in meditation and center your focus.
Ambient sound with visual detailing
The hollow body design of these instruments gives them a lightweight feel while creating a resonating chamber, similar to an acoustic guitar, that allows the tone to spread out naturally.
Engraved around the top sound port is a design that gives each kalimba a unique, cultural look.
Meinl Sonic Energy Hollow Body Kalimbas will look great on display in your home, studio, classroom or meditation space when not in use.
Expert craftsmanship
These kalimbas are crafted with exceptional care using top grade tone woods including maple/acacia blend, mahogany, acacia and maple.
The wood is finished with a stain that brings out the natural grain for a refined and high-end appearance.
We use solid, chrome plated steel for the tines that delivers a pure and resonant sound. These tines are pre-tuned to C Major scale.
Built to last
