The Hokema B9 Electro Kalimba is a handcrafted nine-note thumb piano made from solid American black cherry wood, with a natural oil-and-wax finish that highlights its warm grain. Its nine metal tines are precisely tuned to A minor, making it easy to explore gentle melodies and intuitive musical patterns. Unlike the acoustic B9, this Electro model includes a built-in piezo pickup and a 6.35 mm jack socket, allowing you to connect the instrument to compatible amplification or recording equipment without placing a microphone in front of it.
