Received quickly in Lake Ozark Missouri was packaged awesome. They sent me tracking all along the way. I actually thought the tracking was Spam so I didn't touch it but Oliver said in a package arrived exactly when the message said.

Loved the kalimba. It sounds amazing. My only complaint is that the tines are not even. So it’s hard for me to slide my thumb over when I’m playing a two to three key music. But overall I love it.

I bought this fir my daughter, who used to be skilled clarinet player. She has since become disabled and that has been difficult for her and for us to watch. This Kalimba is so beautiful and music it creates very calming. She opened it today and is still playing it because she loves it so much! Thank you!! Many blessings to you all!

This is the quality and sound I would respect from LingTing. I had recently purchased a different LingTing product from Amazon and the sound was horrible. So I payed more through Shakala but I think it was worth it.

May was very helpful thru the buying and interpretation process. I bought LingTings in F and B, 21 key and 17 key, to add to my C. Beautiful sound and well made. Between a variety of Indian and African hand drums, percussion accessories, and kalimbas I'm very much enjoying jamming with friends and to the Sanskrit Hindu, Sikh, and Tibetan mantra music I saturate my Heart and Soul with. One's life is destined to enjoy Bliss in Oneness with Self and the Soul of the Universe.

I’m learning to play on a 17-key kalimba. I bought this chromatic to entice me to keep practicing and to give me something to aspire to. I’m not musically inclined, but I’m enjoying learning to play the kalimba so much!

Purchased as a gift for our grandson who played the marimba and vibes in high school. He was delighted with the double keyboard kalimba and anxious to learn how to play it. He said it would certainly keep his mind busy; and, as a police officer, looked forward to the diversion. I thought it looked good but the sound wasn't very loud when he tried it. Probably improves with practice!

Very beautiful instrument, works well. My only issue is the satchel it comes with clings to the instrument and can get caught between keys, so maybe they should include a box case with an indentation for the instrument instead.

I Really Like the Seeds 34 key Kalimba, The Seeds 34 key is VERY COMPACT/small for having this many keys. Mine was a Pre-order and was $72.00 plus $17.00 shipping. Lets go over Pros & Cons, Cons First, the Metal Base/ Tine Structure, that hold the Tines, the Plating could be a Little better here, as it is Not Perfect, this is evident looking at it, the Wood clear coat Finish, has a couple Runs in the clear coat on the back of the Kalimba. The Tines are thicker/stiffer playing than say a LingTing...

I'm astounded by the craftsmanship of the kalimba and the sound is absolutely pleasant. I bought this as a present for a close friend and I'm considering buying one more for myself. The support team did an excellent job of shipping it sooner on request. Just buy it! You will be overjoyed by the music it plays!

Caleb P.
The Harpika is a fine instrument, however mine shipped with a broken string and constantly goes out of tune the day after I tune it, and sometimes while I’m tuning the strings, a previous string I’ve already tuned will start to untune itself.

I chose the 15 string in red mahogany and it is beautiful! I love the sound and it was easy to tune using the recommended app. I had a few questions before ordering and received answers quickly. They were able to add an additional set of spare strings to my order easily. It shipped quickly with no issues/damage.

This definitely was the most exciting kalimba unboxing I’ve ever had!!! I’ve been playing with this kalimba for over a week and I did not expect to fall so much IN LOVE with the “Kimi” experience! I absolutely love all of my wooden kalimbas but everyone needs to own at least ONE acrylic version ... it’s a very different experience to play on it (in a magical way!) The sound is soft... delicate... ENCHANTING. The visual fills me with excitment and joy. It’s not too heavy, although it’s heavier th...

This is the only instrument that I'm excited to play and enjoy. I've been writing down my favorite songs and playing them everyday. It doesn't bother my husband or neighbors while I'm practicing, because it sounds nice and calming to them, almost like a music box. And, that's why I wanted to purchase and play the kalimba in the first place. It also helps with my stress, especially when I'm using my fingers. I write and do artwork as well, so that's why I can relate with this instrument.

Our kalimba arrived within a week and was exactly as ordered. We watched a video reviewing 3 different kalimbas and chose this one because of the beautiful melody and the resonance. No dead keys. We were hoping ours would be just as beautiful and it is!! Very happy with our purchase. Would definitely recommend this company to anyone wanting a kalimba .

Very nice instrument, very good how they included instructions, the tuning hammer, case, and cleaning cloth. The instructions were a bit badly translated at points, clearly not written in English originally, but still easy enough to understand with the diagrams. It would have been nice to have included some music to play on it, but other than that, good quality and moderate price.

The first time I’ve seen a tuner with tuning for a kalimba I have various size kalimbas and some times the tuning can be a pain especially when you’re trying to be exact but sometimes close enough is good enough. I’m pleased with my whole package will be doing more business in the near future.

The LingTing in "A" major is my third kalimba purchase....others in "C" and "B". Shakala is a good company, easy to communicate with for questions or orders, and I recommend them

The booklet that came with the Kalimba was for the 10, 15, & 17 key kalimba. I have a 21 key . Is there a 21 key booklet & music? Thank you for your time. Peggy Roynon [email protected]

I started out playing on a handmade experiment Kalimba that was not capable of being tuned. Like ever. It was a woodcraft project my brother in law did and got bored of. And that was enough since I didn't have any musical talent anyway and I liked the way it vibrated in my hands. But after getting frustrated with how different it sounded when I tried to learn songs, I decided to purchase a proper Kalimba from here. It honestly is above and beyond my expectations! I love it so much it's like nigh...

The care instructions were easy to understand and the sound quality was better than I imagined it would be. As I was practicing, all my animals started listening and fell asleep (with animals, that means they feel calm and safe enough to put their guard down).

This was for my son. It arrived on time and packaged very nicely. The kalimba is very nice and the stand is also cool. I like that the stand is made of wood also and easy to put together (two interlocking pieces) . I love the sound and my son really enjoys playing it, you don't need to be an expert for it to sound pretty!!

This is my first time purchasing an instrument like this. The sounds it originates are so nostalgic and at the same time so sweet like the dreams of a young child's spirit. It is just lovely .

This is an amazing, unique kalimba with an extended note range to 6''. No problems with any tine and a soothing bell like sound. I was worried I had missed out on buying it, locally, in Australia. I finally bought it here after procrastinating for weeks. In the end there were no problems. The purchase and delivery was so easy and really fast. I am now honoured to have it in my collection. Thankyou so much.

Beautiful instrument, really nice sound ! My only complaint is the instruction manual, I am Canadian and only speak English the manual is 98% in Oriental Writing. Came with a lot of songs however I have no idea what they are as I can't read the titles, also wasn't sure which diagram to use to place the sticker's on the tines as once again couldn't read it. So maybe think about putting more English as beginner's like me have a hard time figuring out what everything says.

This kalimba is so wonderful! Very well made. The wood is darker than I expected, but still very beuatiful. It sounds very nice and playing it is a pleasure: the tines are rounded and perfectly smooth. I love it. Very fast delivery to Germany without any problem!
