About Kalimba Thumb Piano, AKLOT 17 Keys Finger Piano Solid Wood Note Carved Starter
Overall Feedback:
76% positive
80% appreciated the solid construction, though 20% found it flimsy
The kalimba has amazing build quality and its cute appearance makes it fun to play every day.
I can fix the kalimba with the provided hammer as it is not tuned properly.
I gave this instrument a 2-star rating due to poor sound quality.
73% liked its stylish and modern design, while 27% found it dull and uninspired
I love the color and design of my Aklot Kalimba. It has a chocolate brown color and the same size and shape as the popular Gecko.
I find the shape of the thumb-piano adorable, but the sound is distorted from 25% of the tines, resulting in a muddled resonance instead of clear notes.
78% found it easy to play, but 22% had trouble navigating the keys
Using effects pedals and an amp with the kalimba is very enjoyable.
I find playing the kalimba very easy and enjoyable without worrying about mistakes or bad sound.
I had to spend almost an hour adjusting the tines before I could start enjoying it.
82% liked its compact and lightweight design
This kalimba is lightweight and comfortable to hold and play for hours, making it easy to carry around.
80% praised the clear and rich sound, while 20% found it tinny
The sound quality is fairly good and the higher tines produce clear sounds.
I found it difficult to play the high note keys on all the ones I purchased, but the additional cutouts under the keys of this one helped produce a better sound.
I have given a 2-star rating to the instrument because the sound quality is underwhelming and not as beautiful as expected, resulting in disappointment.
From my experience, the kalimba has a distorted sound from 25% of the tines and the F5 note remains flat even after tweaking and tuning.
79% praised its tuning stability, though 21% experienced frequent tuning issues
I had a negative experience with the kalimba as it arrived badly tuned and I had to retune it myself before enjoying it.
