Review: Amazing Kit with a Beautiful Instrument for an Amazing Price - Beautiful wood, excellent kit. Includes cleaning cloth, basic instruction manual (with links to videos, some easy songs, and further resources available), 3 sticker sheets for labeling the keys if you so want, a bag for all the extra goodies, plus a very sturdy carrying case for the kalimba + tuning hammer. This set is both affordable and satisfyingly complete for a beginner. I'm having a lot of fun learning and transcribing! The wood is beautiful and the instrument is good quality, especially for its price range. As for sound quality: It has a beautiful music-box sound and reverb. There are two holes in the back that can be used for some tone range and vibrato. I did notice that some of the higher keys (B5, C6, D6, E6) become hard to hear and need to be played with either more thumb-force and at the very edge of the key to sound nice. The penultimate keys on both ends (B5 and C6) don't play very cleanly, as in: I can hear some overtones and even some adjacent keys sounding when I play them. I have tried to fix this with the tuning hammer and by shifting the keys a little, but so far, there isn't a good fix. It's not a huge issue in the end, especially for what I paid. All-in-all, an amazing purchase! I'm learning a lot about modal forms and transcribing with this instrument, so I'm advancing my music knowledge with a much more portable (and affordable) instrument than a piano. Extremely satisfied with this product. Thank you so much!
Review: Beautiful sound and perfect for beginners - This kalimba exceeded my expectations. The sound is rich and resonant, perfect for relaxation and meditation sessions. Keys are well tuned out of the box and the included hammer makes adjustments easy when needed. Build quality feels solid with smooth key action. The protective case is genuinely waterproof and compact enough for travel. Study materials are helpful for beginners, showing finger placement and basic songs to start with. Sound projects nicely without being too loud for apartment living. Keys are comfortable to play and don't leave your thumbs sore after longer sessions. The wood finish looks elegant and the engraved design adds a nice touch. Great value for both beginners wanting to learn and experienced players looking for a reliable instrument. Makes an excellent gift too.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: My husband has arthritis. Would he have difficulty paying this?**
A: Hi!   I deal with a lot pain, stiffness and weakness in my hands due to rheumatoid arthritis. I love my Gecko Kalimba In Koa wood! I find that it’s not heavy and it’s easy to hold. It doesn’t require a strong muscle grip  to hold a Kalimba it basically just sits in your hands and the fingers cradle it while it’s played with the thumbs- which in my case they can be very stiff with inflammation but it helps me to exercise them! I don’t have much strength in my hands but I can definitely play my Kalimba- :) I find that it melts stress away and surprisingly it helps with the stiffness caused by arthritis.  It’s a dose of Happy with a side affect of relaxation and many smiles!  I hope and pray the best for you and your husband. :)

**Q: are the notess engraved on the key?**
A: Yes, each key is engraved with the note and a number so you can play the kalimba if you read music or if you need a numbering system.

**Q: I have no training in music. How steep will the learning curve with the Kalimba be?**
A: I was in the same boat and that's why I got the Kalimba it's very easy to learn with no background in music. I assume you've watched all the videos on YouTube at some point as they are really helpful and inspiring. This is an excellent beginner Kalimba and it is beautiful and sound and comes perfectly tuned

**Q: Does it come piano bag and songs book?**
A: It comes in a real nice case and there are a few simple songs to learn on.
