Hello everyone, In my opinion, the mid range price will cost about 25-50 USD, unless a seller has the unit marked down. Hope you get a kalimba and produce sweet music. 😊 These tips will just say: Why buy a Fender if you are not skillful enough to handle a Squire? Squire, by the way, is a fine and decent guitar brand. 💛

@Mozzarella Child There are many reviews here on RU-vid on Kimi Kalimba. Also, I saw on Shopee the cheap ones are around RM30 with reviews saying the high keys are muted. So RM80 seems intermediate already imo.

I wish I had seen this before I bought my Kalimba! I bought one dirt cheap (about $13) which I guess is good enough for me to fool around with. It does have a pretty good sound and I think I will enjoy it. One piece of advice: read the description. The one I bought did not come with a tuner. Fortunately I found one online for just over $2 with free shipping. Unfortunately, it will not arrive for at least a month. Meanwhile, I'm using a tack hammer, which works okay. More expensive ones will have the tuner, and possibly a cleaning cloth and finger picks. Mine is plain wood, no design or even finish on it. Erick, yours is pretty. BTW thanks for the video!
@erickjmedina
@erickjmedina 4 года назад
Hi! Wow. That’s cheap but not that bad to have as an experience haha and yes for you to fool around with. Tuning, hmm truth is you can tune using any object like spoon, fork, knife, and on.. Get one fair quality kalimba, you’ll enjoy it! 💛😊

Thank you for the tips on selecting the right kalimba for my purposes. I saw one about 45 years ago in a random TV commercial and always wanted one but thought they would not be commonly available. So I was thrilled when I saw them on Amazon. No opportunity to hear the sound before purchase, but I got an Eastrock brand. It sounds great to my musically untrained ear and only cost me about $37 with tax. I have learned to play "Morning Has Broken". (I think I'm using up all the available fun in Ohio.)

In my opinion, midrange kalimbas cost: $25 to $50. Btw, these tips do apply NOT JUST for KALIMBAS. When you’re buying something else, consider these tips too 💛 EDIT: I'm changing my mind after seeing the wider market. Midrange goes: $25 to $100 USD. Kalimbas beyond 100 seem too expensive if you just want to learn how to play kalimba.

This is such an intelligent way to approach buying a kalimba, and really any big decision you're having trouble with. Inform yourself as much as you can, look at the range of costs/prices, and then ask yourself if that's what you really want. For example, in addition to the kalimba, it also helped me make a decision about which camera I wanted to buy, and made it a much less painful process with less doubt and hesitation. Thanks and God Bless from Washington, D.C.!

@erickjmedina
@erickjmedina 4 года назад
Looking at the options in the market, one may actually see the middle price. It varies from country to country, exchange rates, and the mark down decision of reseller. Well, I should say this: 25-50 USD MAY be the mid range cost (without the mark down). That price is not definite, just an estimation in my opinion.

@erickjmedina
@erickjmedina 4 года назад
Interesting question! :) Have you heard that major chords sound happy while minor chords sound sad, seemingly there's a tension? If you start your musical arrangment with minor chords, it will definitely feel sad.. Keep playing minor chords. Minor to major, and back to minor, something like that. :)

I like the Kalimba because i love how it sounds, i dont like loud noises or too loud instruments, and i found that the Kalimba existed and i really liked it! I wanted to ask you guys for brands, or prices (like hes saying in the video, too expensive is for a professional but too cheap it won't work.) Also where should i buy it? I saw some on amazon,($40 dollars or so) im looking for a 17 key one,is a good brand and doesn't sound too loud (i think you can adjust the sound though, and im pretty sure none of them sound THAT high-pitched) Thank you for taking your time in reading this!

Hi! Thanks for sharing. Yes I hope it doesnt have the problem. Hmm i need google to covert it. Haha I think it’s safe to buy a kalimba that costs $25 above. It’s better to buy a known brand.

Hey erick what do you think about the SOUIDMY Kalimba? It would be better a SOUIDMY, a JDR or an East Rock? Please help me

hello! i have a question. before watching this video, sadly i have already bought a cheap kalmba for 600 pesos. and as you said, the materials used in it might be generic because the end tines sounds dull, or even dead! what can you suggest about it? should i replace my tines? im a newbie tho and I think i cant do replacing my tines on my own. it would be highly appreciated if you would respond!

@@janmilpatrickpastera5991hello. what kind of kalimba did you bought? is that a hollow (with a hole in the middle)? i messaged Kalimba Music Philippines to ask about this problem. (Ya'll can try messaging them and joining their group 'coz the admins are real responsive and cool!) They told me that hollow kalimbas really have that weakness of having unsustained/stiff sound on its higher keys or the end tines. The great types of kalimbas are flatbosrds. But they told me to tune my kalimba, and prolong the growth of my thumbnails to be used in plucking those tines. Then, just try plucking them, moving it side by side to loosen those tines. According to them, there was a member of their group who had the same problem before snd after s year, that member was able to make the dead tines sound better or good. Changing tines isnt an option. Changing the body of the kalimba IS.

Hi! For 600 kalimba, I suggest you buy a new one. And yes, it’s good that you reached out to KMP for more tips. I couldn’t reply recently because i just moved to another house. Hope you get a satisfying kalimba! 😊💛

Hi Man nice tips 👍 I'm new subscriber from Indonesia. I buy a mahogany kalimba (no brand) 17 keys and i also buy 17 tines. I hope i can combine it to be a new chromatic kalimba. But i'm still don't know how to play it, any something wrong with me ? 😢 If I buy Hugh Tracey kalimba, i think too expensive for me. So i choose that's way. Please give me advice or a tutorial how to play *black notes* 🎹 in kalimba. I don't know how to tuning flat/sharp the tines behind the board. 🙏
@erickjmedina
@erickjmedina 4 года назад
It's good that you seem so interested in playing kalimba. Nothing is wrong if you can't play it for now. I suggest you start with the basic kalimba rather than going for chromatic. Basic kalimba may be 17-key. Yes, it's possible to tune your kalimba to black notes, but if you say that you're interested to chromatic kalimba, there's no need to tune it to black notes because chromatic kalimba includes the black keys of piano. Hope this helps :)

I bought a kalimba for about 20 USD (and since I don't use USD in my country it was EXPENSIVE) But since I was afraid of not liking the sound and end up giving up I searched an awful lot till I decided and I'm still afraid of not liking it

Nice.. Well explained sir.. lalo na sa tip #2. Para sa mga may Mindset na since beginner palang sila they will choose or buy the cheaper one. Pero ang hindi nila alam may malaking factor din kasi kung bakit naging ganun ung presyo ng mga branded na kalimba.. mas enjoy naman kasi talaga.. at nakaka gana tumugtog ng kahit anong instrumento basta maganda tumunog. Ung tipong satisfied ka at happy ka.. yun na yun..

I never played an instrument before. So I bought a cheap Kalimba which doesn't have sound on 2°° and 3°° But I loved it because It has over all good sound and after playing for few months my 2°° became loose and started playing. I also have to tune a tine every now and then. When I get good I will go for 34 keys.

Hi, i've never played kalimba before and i wanna buy one but i can't choose between Wood one and acrylic one. What do u think is better for beginner?
@erickjmedina
@erickjmedina 4 года назад
Hi I just uploaded a review about acrylic kalimba here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-13XVsIe0t4A.html In my opinion, it's better to have both. But the first one might be wooden one. It feels so natural and since it is made out of wood, the resonance is longer. Acrylic kalimbas are known to be attractive-looking which is indeed true, but the resonance of the higher tines is shorter. Anyway, that's just one factor. That's why having both will be the best. 💛

Keep in mind acrylic kalimbas are easily scratched!! My first kalimba was an acrylic, and the sound is very bright and beautiful but I scratched it up a bit.

I agree with him. Just bought mine for 500 pesos. and based on what he said, i couldn't hear the 2 highest notes. I couldn't even tune it properly. :(. Will buying a separate tines solve my problem sir @erick?
@erickjmedina
@erickjmedina 4 года назад
Ohh. Not really sir. You might need to buy another one. Sometimes it’s about the overall structure, poor making of kalimba may result to that.

lmao, my Kalimba Acquisition Syndrome kicked in hard. I started with a cheap 17k hollow cega which was meh and I knew it sounded bad. Bought a 17k hollow Moozica and the difference was night and day. Then I picked up a 21k flatboard Moozica and the 21k Hluru Ocean. And now I have a 34k Seeds (Padauk), 34k Hluru Tree of Life, and 34k Lingting 'Snow Whisper' on the way. All different woods and tones. Definitely overkill for my level of skill but at least I'll never have to buy another one.. unless I want to The flatboards are definitely my favourite, but the volume difference between the flatboard and the hollow is huge.
