Review: A Superb Kalimba — Professional Quality At An Affordable Price - It's time to grow out your thumb nails! This is an exceptional kalimba at any price — easily one of the nicest gifts I've ever given myself. The fact that it can be had for less than $30 makes it even better. The Unokki 17-Key Kalimba has beautiful tone and resonance. Its sound is somewhere between a music box and a heavenly harp — extremely pleasant, calming and soothing. My Unokki kalimba has absolutely no dead tines. (A "dead tine" is a key that sounds "thunky" and doesn't resonate. The actual problem with many people who complain about dead tines is poor picking technique. In one desertcart demo video, I saw a clueless player hammering on the keys. The hammer is for tuning, NOT playing.) Even the outer, higher notes ring out clearly and sweetly. However, the two outer, higher keys do not resonate as long as the lower notes. That's normal and to be expected; they're shorter keys. Also, many older adults don't hear higher pitches as well as lower tones. This lovely instrument is made out of quality tonewood that produces a warm sound and is pleasing to hold. The satin matte finish and rounded edges make it very comfortable. I play mine for long stretches of time, without any pain or discomfort. The soundbox is decorated with an attractive wood-burned design that gives it a touch of elegance. If you're not sure how to play the kalimba properly, watch some how-to videos on YouTube and/or buy a book on kalimba. Both can make a huge difference for a beginning player and lead to a much more satisfying experience. This 17-key kalimba comes bundled with a number of accessories, including: a tuning hammer, small instruction booklet with songs, pair of silicone thumb protectors (not the best way to play; use your thumb nails if possible), a note name and number soundbox sticker (use optional), magenta and turquoise tine stickers (use optional), black velveteen storage bag and tine-wiping cloth. The product box is such that it can be saved and used as a storage case. However, I recommend buying a proper kalimba case that is constructed nicely and has pockets and/or slots for everything. (You don't want the tuning hammer knocking around into your instrument.) Also, I've noticed that many buyers of this kalimba have stated that it's ready to play, straight out of the box. That has NOT been my experience with ANY adjustable, musical instrument. I suspect those reviewers might be beginners and/or slightly tone-deaf. After being bounced around during shipping travel, just about every musical instrument needs tuning and the kalimba is no exception. With mine, I even had to re-space some of the tines. The Unokki booklet recommends the free chromatic tuning apps gStrings for Android and insTuner for iOS. I used the free Pano Tuner app which worked very well and is available for both Android and iOS. However, I'm considering buying an all-instrument clip-on tuner. They're affordable and remind me of the extremely accurate and fast Snark brand tuners that I use on my guitars and ukuleles. Don't be freaked-out about tuning your kalimba. Read the instruction booklet, watch a few videos, use an app or tuning device and tap gently. It's not hard and makes all the difference in the world with the sound. Many musicians, articles, videos and websites recommend the Unokki 17-Key Kalimba over the extremely popular Gecko brand. While I have not tried the latter, I think the Unokki kalimba is exceptional. I'm extremely pleased with my Unokki kalimba's sound, performance and quality. I think it's comparable to many of the more expensive kalimbas I've seen and heard played by professional thumb pianists on YouTube. This gem is definitely a keeper. I'm so delighted with my Unokki kalimba, I don't want to put it down.
Review: I'm considering to buy another one as a gift - I was looking for something to get as a gift for my son who likes collecting instruments from everywhere. One of my friends had a thumb piano and I was asking about it. They had a Gecko and it was nice but they had some complaints about it. I thought it would be a great gift so I got on desertcart to do some research. I found one that looked nice and decided to get it. It came very quickly. It came with rubber thumb picks that fit a kids thumbs but not mine. I would rather use my thumbnail anyway. It feels like a cleaner sound. They provided stickers that fit nicely. The keys, or whatever they are called, are curved and if you look at my pictures, I think look elegant. There are color stickers that fit perfectly and they provided key and numbers that fit perfectly and allow me to keep the elegant look and sound. It comes with a tuning hammer, a cleaning cloth, a manual and a very nice carry bag/cover to put the Kalimba in. The instructions are very easy to understand. The price was excellent and the quality is just as excellent. I was not expecting such a quality instrument, but it has exceeded my expectations. I was thinking I would have to spend a lot more to get something like this. The Kalimba by Tanedar is as good as or better than the Gecko that my friend has. They were envious when I showed it to them. My son was very happy with it and he has been playing on it for the past several days. His best friend came over and is wanting one now. If you have any questions about this, feel free to ask. I am very happy to support good quality purchases. I was asked once why I buy so many things from desertcart. Well, I don't buy a lot, but when I do, I trust my desertcart purchases.If I get something that wasn't as described or if there is something wrong with a product, desertcart makes it easy to take care of and when I find a great product like this Tanedar Kalimba at such a great price, it makes me feel beeter to find new products to expand my choices. I hope the pictures give you a good feeling about the product. The last picture is my son holding it on his birthday.
