Shamann Kalyre 17 notes Sunlit Grain

Introducing the Shamann KL17ZM, an innovative stringed instrument that beautifully merges the intuitive key layout of a kalimba with the rich, expressive tones of a lyre harp. Designed for ease of play, this instrument is held with both hands while the thumbs gracefully pluck its 17 strings, making it accessible for musicians of all levels.

What sets the KL17ZM apart from traditional kalimbas is its ability to support both diatonic and chromatic melodies. The thoughtfully arranged upper and lower strings can be played independently, allowing for seamless transitions and a broader range of musical expression. The result is a sound that is not only richer and more open but also closely resembles that of a lyre harp, creating a truly captivating auditory experience.

This instrument is crafted from high-quality Zambian pear wood and maple, ensuring durability and an exquisite tone. Tuned in C major, the KL17ZM offers a delightful range of notes, from C4 to C6, perfect for both beginners and experienced players seeking to explore new musical horizons.
