Kalimba is the modern version of the traditional African Mbira instrument. The Kalimba has been developed and invented by Hugh Tracey (ethnomusicologist specialised in Central and Southern African music). It is manufactured since 1954 by AMI (African Musical Instrument), company founded by Hugh Tracey and his son.
Tuning can be modified by moving slightly the tines. It is recommended not to modify the tuning more than a semitone away from its original position.
Handmade and tuned by artisans in South-Africa

I was able to use my acquisition and for the moment I am happy with it and I would have expressed it to you for a long time but your computer system is to be revised because it did not allow me until now to answer you. It is true that in computer matters I am not very good. I would be interested later to try another tone. but it is a good product on the other hand my opinion is more mixed on the small Kalimba acquired to initiate my grandchildren. I had to spend a lot of time to tune them and to give them a presentable aspect the blades arrived a little in bulk... With the pleasure and am ready to try other models if that interests you Sincerely Alain. (Translated review)
