Title: Nice LOOKing!... Weak sounding.
Product review: I received this kalimba last night. At first open I was actually very excited how nice it LOOKED. I would have been proud to have this one in my collection. The item was described as new, however there were a few blemishes (which I would not have minded cuz it was under $50 bucks). I tuned it into it's proper range (B as bottom note). Tuning it isn't as bothersome as other people have commented. However, I immediately realized that the first two tines did not play right (the sound was muted and made "thunk" sounds. If you do decide to buy this kalimba - be careful cuz the dealer doesn't refund any of the shipping. I hope you don't get one with muted notes like I got. Also, the sound is not as strong as similar kalimbas - but just sounds okay. By the way, I don't have anything to gain or lose by commenting here. I was really hoping it would work out. (Returned it during my lunch break.) Thank you.
