Description

Unfortunately, African Musical Instruments (AMI) is no longer making kalimbas. However, we have two more Hugh Tracey Alto Kalimbas with pickups.

Learn more about the Alto kalimba, including possible tunings, at the Alto Resources Page.

We can put this kalimba into almost any tuning you want. If you want something less vanilla than G, confer with us, and we’ll figure it out with you.

The Alto kalimba is a bit larger than the Treble kalimba, but the Alto has 15 tines instead of the Treble’s 17. It is in G, which is a 4th lower than the common 17-Note Kalimba in C.
