LingTing K17a Unboxing, Review & Sound Test | (LT-K17a) Should you buy this Kalimba?
I came across your video here, but with me not having anything important to say, your situation reminds me of my own.
It was like a month ago that I bought my first kalimba. I've seen them on UA-cam and loved the sound of these things, but not being a musician of any sort I never had an instrument of my own. I desired to pull myself into playing some simple tunes using like a tongue drum or tank drum because they are kind of easy for a novice such as myself to pick up and start making tunes. I went to my local music store and as I found the tongue drums, there it was also! A kalimba! And for just $50.00 USD! I told me self there is not way I'm holding back from this. I thought they costed more. This one was a hollow body one like you have. However, in watching many kalimba videos I desired to have one with more tines, so I went to the Lingting website and saw a 34 tine one, and so I ordered it. As soon as it came in the mail and I unboxed it, held it in my head. Once I played the first note, I was absolutely stunned and amazed because the solid wood body I believe creates this magical sounding ring or chime that my hollow body one does not have. I'm not sure if this is LingTing's signature sound or if it's just this kalimba but it sounds very beautiful!
Now for me to learn how to play more complex things.
Albert! You're adorable!! I love your voice and style! Thank you so much for mentioning me. I subscribed by the way. 🥰❤️
Over the moon right now! ❤️ thank you for your kindness Robin 😊 I appreciate you
Congratulations on your new lingting! I love how you explain the details. 🎉👏🏻 so happy for you! 💯♥️
Hey Janine ❤️ I finally did it, officially on YT 😂 thanks for your comment, I will try be on camera more in future videos!
I really love the unboxing it is very detailed it makes me want to buy another kalimba. keep it up will wait for your other videos
Thanks for the encouragement 😄 I'll be on camera more in future videos for sure ❤️
USA, good video. I watch Robin, too. I'm going to have to get this kalimba.
great review!! cant wait to receive mine later!
Heyy Yourl0gic 😉 awesomee ❤️ what I just realized is how smooth it is to swipe/glide on a LingTing, some other kalimba brands have stiff tines, which makes them louder but not as nicer sounding as LingTing 😏👌 excited for you! Lemme know when it arrives 🥂
Omaha, Nebraska USA. I just bought this kalimba, as well as the 21 key Ling Ting. Beautiful instruments, and I’m excited to learn to play them. Thanks for the great reviews!
What beautiful camera work! Like always Lingting sounds so beautiful! And I am from Texas
Hey Autumn 😊 Thanks for your support & kind words ❤️ yes, LingTing is great!
Great unboxing and kalimba, good job Albert!
Thanks bro, I finally did it 😂 officially on YT lmao
Nice review Albert!! ☺️ I want to have a lingting kalimba, too 🙈 I will definitely consider this when I will buy a new one. ❤️
Hey Vanessa 😄 hahaha yes! It's a great Kalimba brand ❤️
Awesome video & review! I've always wanted to learn more about the kalimba! :))
Thank you Shaira 😊 yes! Stay tuned, this tutorial series is in the making
Lingting for the win Albert! 💛 Your detailed review is worth watching. It’s still my favorite flatboard kalimba. Bole!
Thanks for kindness Erick 🙏 encouraging me to be on camera more for future videos ❤️ #LingTing number 1 🔥🔥🔥
Well, I bought a Kalimba to my wife several weeks ago, a cheap one, but, since watching your video, especially because you are here in Australia, I immediately bought one, from Sydney, now I just have to wait until it arrives. Thanks for sharing your insights.
Hello Albert! I watch your videos since September and I'm glad to know your channel🤗 Just keep posting❤️
Awhh thanks Eshei 😊❤️ will do
Thank you for this review. I have been researching for a flat board kalimba for almost 36 hours now hahaha and of all of the reviews I've read, most of you suggest or are so much pleased with LingTing. You added more notes on the pro's so I feel convinced in buying a LingTing as my first flat board and I am sure I will not have regrets later. I own a hollow right now and I want to explore more with a flat board. It definitely is true that once you own a kalimba you cannot just stick with one. I watch vids from Robin of Tip's Kalimba too! Hello from the Philippines!
Hi Amore! Thanks for your comment ❤️ and nice to meet you 😁
Russia. Just bought this kalimba. Really liked the sound. And the vibration that is transferred to the player's hands is incredible feeling! Relaxing.
Thank you for your unboxing. Its delicious
Hi ClassicLovingGirl ^^ Thanks for coming down to the channel & checking out this review, Glad you like it! Yes, the LingTing both feels and sounds premium! I have 6 kalimbas now, and great sound comes from a winning combination of good Tine quality & body density. LingTing has a dense body, which makes the sound quality rich, and captures the vibrating sounds inside the body much longer than a lighter weighing Kalimba, but the only tradeoff is a slightly less loud sound output, I don't seem to mind this tradeoff, as LingTing is loud enough for me :) They did a great job designing this LT-K17a, I'm glad you got to experience this!
Whatever you do is great. Rooting for your channel❤🖤❤🖤❤🖤❤
Thanks a lot for your positive affirmations 😊 I will definitely be on camera more ❤️
Hi Albert, I really like how you explain it 😊😊 I love this LingTing too, maybe it will be my next kalimba wishlist 💓
Hello Els 😁 thanks for coming to my channel & watching ❤️✨ I appreciate you!
Thank u Albert! For the detailed neat review, i was planned to buy this kind of Kalimba, and now no hesitate no more because of your review! -new subscriber fr Jakarta.
Hi Lovely rain 😁 nice to meet you, no worries! It won't disappoint 💪 🔥 the good quality tines combined with a thick body creates a more pleasing sound
Love the unboxing ~ very detailed😁 It's good seeing your face😂 Please do more videos like that hahahaha
Awhh that means a lot to me 😊 thanks Mae ❤️ I will do my best ! Hopefully LingTing notices me
Great details unboxing the kalimba, good jobs Albert....😀😀
Thank you Robert, glad you liked it 😄
Im from the Philippines. I recently discovered my interest in playing the Kalimba and i arrived here in your video. I have no music background. Idk how to read notes but I am really interested in playing the Kalimba casually. I hope to learn from you! Thank you!
I feel like this is the best 17 note mass-produced kalimba out there right now.
Wow so detailed☺️ and the video is so cute love it😊😊
Hey Rynne ❤️ thanks for watching 😊 I'm glad you liked it! Stay tuned for more
I have this one on order. It should arrive tomorrow, I'm looking forward to it.
I've had a hollow body Gecko for a few years now, and I'm basically happy with it. But the short tines on the ends are plinky. In the reviews I've seen for the LingTing, that's not an issue - everything resonates. All the swag that LingTing hooks you up with is nice, but what really sold me is the sound.
I like your detailed product introduction👍👍👍
Thanks so much ^__^
Nice review!
Thanks Aoi! :D I appreciate you coming down to my channel and supporting
This was Amazing!!!!😆😆 Well done Albert senpai!
Thanks Defney 😊 ur comment helps boost my confidence in making more vids like this
@@KalimbaVerse yay! Would love to see more videos like this from u Albert😁❤️
Okey but this is really a great review 💯 , I stan your quality content😭😭
😂 I finally did it, on camera for UA-cam, thanks for your support Syikin ❤️
@@KalimbaVerse a perfect review from you💯😍
My first LingTing was the K17P in the key of B. At the time, I already had a Hluru flatboard in C major that I loved but when I heard the sound of the LingTing tines, I *IMMEDIATELY* bought this one in C. I was SOLD. I’m still waiting for my Gecko K17CAP to come in, so I can’t compare to that one yet, but LingTing has the most *heavenly* sounds out of all my Kalimbas. Plus the tines ring at the slightest touch of the nails. I could easily play very gently or very “robust” (lol!) on them based on the pressure I put into the keys. I could go on for like 2 more paragraphs about how amazing LingTing kalimbas are but I’ll spare you the time. Hahah!
By the way, cheers from the USA. ✌️☺️
Heyy Anna 😄 Nice to meet you! yeahh I totally agree 💯 real attention to details, I'm thoroughly impressed with their quality control, thanks for coming down to the channel and supporting me 😊 let's keep in touch via FB/IG @KalimbaVerse
Why is Ling Ting different from orthers?
I enjoyed watching your video presentation. Awesome 🌹
awesome video! just a little tip, I think the video would sound better with the background music a bit quieter
Hey Gabe 😆 thanks my friend 💪🔥 will take it onboard, and implement next vid I'm onscreen, thanks for supporting my works!
Great video ! 😀
Thanks Sharon ❤️
Nice unboxing and review 🧡🧡🧡
From the Philippines here 😊
Thanks Shey 😂😂😂 pls teach me some words ❤️ Na Ol
Wow, it's a great review, Albert.. :)
So clear and detail you describe it..
Lingting should ask you to be their brand ambassador :)
Thanks Ajeng! That's the main goal of the channel ❤️ to be an ambassador for Kalimbas in Australia, not many know about this instrument but those who do are very interested, that would be excellent if LingTing contacted me 😂
@@KalimbaVerse wow.. I hope that moment comes soon.. :)
Nice review Albert! Hope Lingting will notice this
Thanks man 😉 yeah me too, staying hopeful 🔥🔥🔥
Congratulations dear friend 😍 and am glad that I see you now😃😍💖 keep it up and good luck with everything 💕💕
Angie! Yes hahaha I finally did it 😂 I'm officially on UA-cam 😜 thanks for your support, I really appreciate you ❤️
@@KalimbaVerse absolutely, always here my friend 😍😅
Thank you for this video! It was very informative :). Do you know if it is easy to change the tuning of this Kalimba? I’ve watched another video on UA-cam in which they said changing the tuning on this Kalimba is pretty hard.
Nice review! I'm waiting for my Lingting K17P which I won from a give away. 😁
🇵🇭
Omgg that's amazingg, congrats on winning the giveaway 😊 you should watch Erick J Medina on UA-cam, he has a review of the K17P 🔥🔥🔥 very good!
Omg, lingting includes soo many items😍
Yes, much more than my first Kalimba for sure
I love this unboxing Kuya Albert🥰 wish i could do this in the future heheh.. you're pogi po!😊
Thanks Eliana, You can do it! I believe in you ❤️
This is so cool to watch. I saw they sell that in Amazon.
Ahh yes, it's good there's options, got mine from AliExpress, but it took nearly 2 months to get here ^^''
Bro you’re amazing.✌🏻
❤️❤️❤️ thanks for your kind words Elif 😊 I hope you had a nice day so far
Yess, learning to be better on camera with every video ✊🔥
Just subscribed to your channel. I hope I could learn much from you and ate Robin! Hehe. More power!

omg what a coincidence. I'm from Australia too
🇵🇭
No wayy 😏😏😏 we need to catch-up hahaha
Woohoo! 🙌 💯
Albert, you look so excited! I’m so happy for you. While the peek in the box and comparison with feature of your old model were interesting, I’m hoping to hear what you have to say about its sound. In fact, after thinking Hugh Tracey might be best (or LingTing?), now I’m almost convinced the Hokema B17 is the only way to go.
Have you done or seen a comparison with that and yours? I’m not able to find one anywhere. The German made Hokema has no dead tines, incredible engineering and clarity, and the most gorgeous sound. It seems unparalleled...
Hey Maineuser :) hmm, I wish I knew, but I don't currently have hands on experience with Hugh Tracey / Hokema, but from what I'm hearing by video, they do sound amazing, I'm considering saving up for one to showcase, ideally if these companies would like to do a product sponsor, I'd be more than happy to showcase them for you guys
@@KalimbaVerse I bought the B17. Was torn at the end with the M17 (under $50!). But preferred the German workmanship, reputation and longer tines. It took a lot of digging for me to learn about these. So very happy to find them!
I really love the way you explain. Im a lingtinger ❤️
Heyy Anjelie 😊 ❤️ Thanks! I felt like most unboxings have no commentary, I'm glad this brings value, I hope we can collaborate soon! 😏
Nice review! New friend from Malaysia ♥️
Thanks! I think you're my 200th sub! ❤️ I'm from Indonesia, but I live in Australia 😂 nice to meet you! What's your name?
Hi Albert. I'm Nea from malaysia. I like your unboxing video. U look very confident in that video. I wish i have confident level like u. 😁 Keep up brother.. 😘🎼 And please, stay safe during this covit-19.. ✌️🇲🇾
Awhh thanks Nea ❤️ you can do it too! Just be kind to yourself, we're our own worst critic Everytime, so need to know it's a learning process and it's okay to not be perfect 😊
In terms of how to sound more natural on camera, pretend you're talking to your friend 😂 and I practice a lot behind the scenes to speak without giving my brain enough time to filter what I say. Last thing I say I must continue on that topic, it's a good skill to learn ❤️ that's how to not sound like a robot 🤖 😂 I still do sound a bit like a robot here and there in this video, but it's a lot better than first try 🔥🔥🔥
Yow albert 😂
I'm planning to buy one soon hoho
LOL 🤣 hello there 😝 pleasant surprise
Yes! Can't wait ❤️
We need to see your gorgeous face more 😍 I have watched this video several times, just because you are soooo cute 🥰😂 I am waiting for my kalimba, I loved your review. 👍🏻

@@KalimbaVerse a little thing to show support lol 😹😹
Im new to your channel 😊 But I really love the unboxing of your LingTing K17A 😍🥰 I really really want to buy this Kalimba 💛 More covers with your LingTing 😊 Im from Ph ✨
Hey Jackie! Nice to meet you
❤️ Welcome to KalimbaVerse, thanks so much for coming down to the Channel & supporting by watching, liking & commenting, really appreciate it !
Yes! Thoroughly impressed with this LingTing Brand, from the unboxing to the actual Kalimba quality itself :) I recommend, let me know how it goes 😉 I'm looking to get an Acrylic kalimba next, the brand "Treelf" looks great
@@KalimbaVerse I already ordered this brand of kalimba 🥰😍 Im so excited to play hihihi
Treelf is a new brand, but I think this brand is good, I dont have any acrylic for now. Im beginner 😊 Thank you for your reply 🤗
@@jacklyngomez971 Awesome! :D will you upload your covers on YT?
@@KalimbaVerse Sorry for the late reply Kuya ✨ I dont have YT channel for now po 😔
@@jacklyngomez971 that's alright haha, I just got back from 1 week vacation :) Good to hear from you again Jackie! more kalimba covers coming soon, I will be unboxing 2 new kalimbas too!
Awww Im so Jealous,i wish i could have that too,Lingting brand was good,Anyways looking forward for more kalimba tutorials
Thanks Ann, working on it behind the scenes ❤️
I would have loved to have heard what it sounds like. To me that's the most important criterion.
For a review I was honestly expecting you to play a lot more of the kalimba
Hey SyrianGamer 😁 Merry Christmas! ❤️ Apologies, my first ever unboxing & review on camera, it's a learning process, but I'll take this onboard for upcoming unboxing & reviews 💪 Cheers
Wow nice thanks your sharing blessing
Thanks for watching Love Pilapil! :)
I love your smile too .🤣🤣🤣
Gnaww ☺️ I'm lost for words hahaha ❤️
I'm debating which one to get, april yang or this one? 🤔 I got the kimi acrylic which is also good. And i want to get a wooden kalimba, i guess I'm going to get this instead. Thanks for your review ~ from Alaska 😊
Good choice! what I find from Acrylic is it's heavier and sounds softer, the hollow wooden one is the loudest, but doesn't sustain the note for long, and flatboard wood is the sweet spot in the middle ❤️
I love the kalimba has golden chain 😍😍😍😍
Very Aesthetic 😍 thanks for watching Lanna
I recommend that if you show an instrument, do a sound test of all the notes and use the things that it brings you and not so much planes of the kalimba showing something that is evident.
Want to have a lingting Kalimba soo badd
Nailed it....
Btw, Im From the Philippines 😁😆
Hi Axcel, I know you from fb... & Absolutely! LingTing is great 💯 I hope you can get one soon
♡♡♡♡
Your first budget kalimba is the same as mine! I instantly recognized it by the sun design around the sound hole, but when you showed other parts as the finish ect it looked exactly like mine 😂
Just curious, mine was a Donner kalimba, is your too or do they make them under other brands?
Heyy Miki 😁❤️ thanks for coming down to the channel & supporting me
Omg yes it was Donner DKL-17 😂 I like the Kalimba, it works well for some songs like the Avatar one I did, I first wanted to get this specific model because Taylor from ASMR Darling showcase this interesting instrument on her channel, it was very relaxing 😂 I must get it 😍 that's who introduced me into Kalimba actually 😆 I never knew I'd start a channel & play this instrument in 2020, pretty interesting where life takes us ❤️
They have knockoff versions with the sun, but I think the real company is Donner, sneak peek, I'm getting a new EQ hollow box kalimba from Kalimbera website 😏😉 gonna showcase it soon, it has special engraving, stay tuned!
Hello from Norway 😁
Nice to meet you Amneline 😁 thanks for coming down to the channel, have a great day ahead ❤️
Makes me want to buy one XD I'm from Malaysia❤️
Omg it's Fish The Musician! 🤯 You were mentioned by Autumn The Kalimbaist in her recent Skit, so nice to meet you 😊 my name's Albert 👋 I will support you as well
@@KalimbaVerse haha, I've been subscribing you for a long time, but this is my first comment XDDD, nice to meet you! You actually added me on Facebook haha
Omg 😂 that's so good to hear, I wish more people did this #MysterySubs hahaha
omg tysm for this vid!! im so confused whether i want to buy gecko or this k17a lingting bcs ive already have acrylic one which is kimi 🤧 ok now i now hehe
Heyy Joanna :) Yeah Gecko Kalimbas are pretty good, just lacks the unboxing experience & other minor attention to details ~ Thanks for coming down to the channel and supporting me! I just bought the "Treelf" Acrylic (belongs to same company as LingTing), it looks high quality ❤️
Will be reviewing 2 new Kalimbas soon on this channel, stay tuned! 😊
will looking forward to that 🤩 thank you for responding. May i know which one was better between k17a & k17y? Sorry for asking too much Q 🤧
Thanks Joanna ❤️ K17y is hollow kalimba, and K17a is a Flatboard kalimba, in my personal experience, I liked Flatboards more because they never have the dead tines issue and is loud enough for my liking 😂 but if you're after more volume, go for k17y
I see. I hate dead tines too. Ok i'll go for k17a! Tysm for the tips 💝
Very good Man achievements👍
Thanks bro ❤️
I was hoping you'd play it , why no sound demo?
6:23 😲 soo much detail
Ahh yes, very subtle things about LingTing 😏
Lingting nambawan❤️
Fo Sho 🔥🔥🔥 #1
I'm yet to find something better to change my mind 😂😂😂
do the tines rust easily?
What kind of mic do you use for recording the kalimba sound?♡
Hey Vanilla :D I'm using a Lavalier Microphone, I always position it away from the camera, but always position the microphone under or in front the kalimba (never from the side of the kalimba), the brand for the Lavalier microphone is called "Arimic" and I got it for cheap from Wish website
have you tried tuning it? because i've heard it's especially hard to tune for this brand of kalimba.
hey Ziq Sanusi, good question haha, I just tuned this last week, and it was not very hard, but I must say it's slightly harder than my previous budget kalimba, what I'm saying is it's not impossible to tune, just needs a few more taps :)
@@KalimbaVerse and how is possible to understand if we tune it well?
I just got the same kalimba. My problem now is how to record it on open space. :( How do you record flatboards in open spaces?
Hey Mic Mix, going through comments list haven't responded to yet haha, sorryy
Answer: I use a lavalier microphone and always place it under the kalimba nearby or on my shirt, which would be above the kalimba, never from the side of the kalimba, that produces the least sound ~ but yes, also try shield your mic from the wind, or have one of those fluffy mic covers on your lavalier mic ;)
@@KalimbaVerse thank you for the response.
From Philippines 😁
So cool, I wish I can speak Tagalog 😂
I’m from Antartica.

Am from there uk
hey , is the loudness do satisfying? or is it that quite?
Hey Eddie 👋 yes the loudness of a Flatboard kalimba like this LingTing is definitely good enough in quiet and moderate environments, it is just not made for super loud environments, but I much prefer Flatboards than hollow Kalimba for sound quality ❤️ it's not super quiet, if you're in a room full of people talking at same time, then it drowns out the Flatboard sound
thank so much. one more thing bro.
if the hollow kalimba like gecko is rated as 10 (since hollow kalimba is the loudest)
how would you rate this lt k17?
Like an 8/10 for loudness in comparison to that 10 for hollow Kalimbas
wow. thanks. anyway like the accent. this summer I've been practising british accent from Philippines here.
Between K17 A and K17 P which one is better ?
Heyy Mithun :) Thanks for coming down to the Channel & supporting my works ^^ This question comes up a lot, and not much difference, both are really excellent products, it really depends on personal preference, this will help you decide:
----- K17a-----
- Reddish Brown colour African Padauk Wood
- Excellent for Beginners, Tuned to C major, nearly all Kalimba Tutorials & Songs are tuned to Standard C major.
- I own one, and I can definitely say the resonance of the tines is long enough, flatboards usually have no issues with resonance
----- K17p-----
- Brown Hedgehog Wood
- Unique sounding, because tuned to B major, which is 1 whole tone lower than C, making it resonate even longer, and sound deeper, if you read tabs by numbers, it shouldn't be difficult to play the K17p, a lot of people prefer it because it sounds different to your regular C tuned Kalimba
@@KalimbaVerse Thanks for the detailed answer
Can I download your vedio and repost on my Facebook?
Hi Nang, sorry maybe not download the video, but just paste the link on your Facebook instead, so there won't be any copyright issues, thanks! Just paste in this link below:
m.ua-cam.com/video/PcWhogbIuZo/v-deo.html
Hey which is better between k17y and k17a
Hey Zayn :) K17Y is a hollow Kalimba, and K17a is a Flatboard Kalimba, they are both tuned to the same key of C major, it's up to personal preference really, I'm a big fan of flatboard kalimbas because it resonates longer than hollow, and to my ears sounds sweeter/graceful, though I have many friends who prefers the hollow kalimba for its sound ^^
@@KalimbaVerse heyyy what abt k17p and k17a?
K17p & K17a are both Flatboard Kalimbas, k17p uses hedgehog wood, and K17a uses African Padauk Wood, both sound similar, K17p is in key of B major which is 1 tone lower than K17a which is in key of C major. For beginner, I recommend K17a, so you can follow tutorials as most Kalimbas are tuned to C
The reason why people buy K17p is for the wood design pattern of hedgehog wood, and B tone sounds quite unique, because it's 1 tone lower, the tines are lowered so when you pluck it, it vibrates even longer than K17a, but K17a is already excellent in terms of vibration duration
@@KalimbaVerse but can you tune the k17p to c major?
I'm from india,I will buy this kalimba❤️{but after good Marx}😭😭
I wanted to b first😔
Nicole beat u to it 😂
@@KalimbaVerse 😭😭 y😂
cah bagus unboxing kalimba wkwkwkwkw
Halo Raden 😂😂😂 terima Kasih
México👌🏼
I got one 8:24
france
Would this Kalimba be good for beginners? ^^
Hi Iyana 😁😁 I would say this is a really good Kalimba for beginners, because the build quality is excellent, good quality sound, and this model LT-K17a is already tuned to C major, which is great for beginners to follow along to tutorials on UA-cam, as C major is standard tuning ❤️ hope this helps!
@@KalimbaVerse Thank you for the advice! I bought this kalimba today and I'm so excited to get it. :)
