The Hokema B17 Mini Kalimba is much smaller than the B17 Kalimba. The tine spacing is almost the same as the typical 17-
But here is the main pitch: the Mini-17 Kalimba feels and sounds great, as sweet and as resonant an instrument as you will find.
The B17 Mini has 17 narrow top quality tines mounted on a sturdy wood body. All the notes have an even sound, and the notes sustain for several seconds. And while many 17-Note kalimbas have muffled sounds on the top few tines, the B17 Mini has a very clear sound on the top notes. Like playing golden honey on a sun-shiney day.
Playing-wise? This kalimba will last your entire life. The tine mounting system is solid and these kalimbas will hold their tune longer. The tines will last also, and the solid American cherry wood body is massive. Smooth with superior sound.
