More on Labeling Kalimba Tines

Here's a tip written by Percy (Mwana) Dee:

I just read your tip about writing the note names on the tines. It is of interest for beginners and advanced players as well. When I learned the note arrangement on the Treble and Alto Kalimba, I used a label maker to make alphabets to stick on the tines in a V shape arrangement. But instead of sticking them on the tips of the tines where they would interfere with playing, I stuck them about a little more than an inch from the tips, so you can easily view the name of the notes in a V pattern. This is also reccommended with kalimbas with a different original note arrangement than the Hugh Tracey.
