Hi, for all those wondering how to fix dead tines, here’s what I did : take those little pieces of fabric used to clean glasses and wiggle it under the tine. Then, grab the two edges of the fabric and very gentle lift the tine up. And then you can remove the fabric. It works like a charm ! :)

@rachelcookie321

2 жыл бұрын

What piece of fabric are you talking about? The cloth? I tried but it would just stretch and not lift up the tine. I feel like you are talking about something else but that’s the only fabric I have with my glasses.

I first bought a wooden kalimba also, and bought an acrylic one for my second and immediately noticed a difference, I love both, they sound so different and I noticed the dead tines too when I was playing the wood one. However, I do feel like they both give a different vibe when playing, the wooden one is definitely more acoustic and gives you a rustic vibe, the acrylic one has a more crystal sound (if that makes any sense, that's the best way I can think to describe it! ) I love them both nonetheless :D

For everyone who plays another instrument that requires short nails, just so you know there are things called Kalimba Fingertips which you can put on your thumb to make it easier to play the kalimba then take it off to play your other instrument I’ve literally just been copy and pasting a message telling people that kalimba thumb picks in the replies to everyone saying they cant grow long nail lol. If you see someone comment they can’t play because they need short nails for another instrument please just tell them they can still play with thumb picks. The kalimba is such a beautiful instrument and it would be a shame if people didn’t play it because they thought they wouldn’t be able to because of their nails.

In fact I like shorter nails more while playing the Kalimba, it feels less weird. Of course you still need some nail, so don't cut them to short!

The calimba sounds so pretty. The acrylic is pretty, and the wood is pretty. Thank you.

just purchased my Kalimba, thank you for the tips

ah good to know the wooden ones are beginner friendly. i’ve been wanting a kalimba for a while and a bit ago i was out with my mother at a market and i saw a stall that was selling handmade decorations and they had a couple of wooden kalimbas with pretty floral designs carved into the fronts so my mother bought one for me for christmas

I found somewhere and read that Kalimba is the easiest music instrument and I was very excited to learn since when I was a child, my fingers are short so I cannot play any instrument. I don't really get into those arts and musicals because I was never been encouraged to. Now that I watched this video, it makes me want to comfirm on buying this Kalimba. I already tried to play this but *virtually* so it would be nice to have it for real. :>

I ordered a kalimba last night so I’m really happy this video came up!! I’m also excited for it to come in on saturday

Thank you for all the advise!!

As far as tabs, I can somewhat easily find written tab notations online. But I have quickly learned to absolutely *LOVE* using the kalimba tablatures with the “musical notes” on them. (I am not too familiar with piano music sheets but those would be a fair alternative.) I can’t hardly find K tablatures that I can *print out* on paper. Sure, they have “video” versions but I can’t stand constantly pausing/playing/rewinding videos during practice. Not to mention having the phone screen shut off on me while playing. I prefer paper in front of me. I am dying for April Yang to publish a whole paper booklet of her covers in tablature form. Or any other youtuber who creates their own covers. Dyyying. Anyway, great vid!!! ❤️

Thank you so much for posting your heart taking note to share with us. Would you mind posting more of your thought on improving our music world? The world needs music especially when someone cannot find a purpose in life.
