Strumba Kalimba

I've never played an instrument before, but I picked up a simple melody on this thing within an afternoon. The tines are spaced comfortably for my thumbs and the two-tone beechwood looks nicer in person than in the photos.

The rounded edges on the beechwood body make it really comfortable to hold for long stretches. I keep it on my desk and tinker with it between meetings, and the two-tone finish looks nicer in person than in the photos.

I've never played any instrument before but had a melody going within ten minutes. The beechwood body is smooth and the rounded edges make it nice to just hold while you mess around. Honestly the nicest impulse buy I've made in a while.
