Fixing a Dead Tine

Description

The old Hugh Tracey kalimbas from the 1960’s are some of the sweetest kalimbas I’ve ever played, but the thin face wood sometimes develops an unseen weakness that results in absorbing a single note on the kalimba. The Altos usually lose their high E and the Trebles usually lose their high A.

By installing a wooden post inside your kalimba, you can fix this problem. You can do it yourself, or you can send it to me! I’ll do my best and send it back to you pretty quickly.
