What is the tuning? - is it standard scale or can it be tuned to multiple chords such as Em or Am?

The Hokema Kalimba Sansula is in A-minor with additional tines tuned to B and F. Tuning (can be varied up or down about 11/2 notes each direction ): A, C, C, A, A, F, E, E, H there are several tuning books available that will show you the different scales and we have a free tunning.pdf form that shows the default tunning and the possible variations of each tine so you can design your own tunings

Does this have the contact mic on it to plug into mixer/amp?

No this is the non electric version without the pickup and microphone cable.

How difficult is this instrument to play if you have smaller hands? (female)

My wife has smaller female hands and plays this instrument quite easily. Highly recommended.

Does this have a tensioning device like the deluxe? If not, why not? Is the membrane replaceable?

The Deluxe Sansula is a natural goat hide which will react to moisture and therefore we integrated the tension screws to be able to adjust. The Sansula Renaissance has an artificial Remo Renaissance drum skin hide which is durable and moisture resistant. Therefore no tension screws are needed. We do offer a refurbish service in case that is needed. Please contact our regional distributor in California for more information

Reviews

K**!

Beeindruckender, schwebender und deutlich hörbarer Klang; auch für Notenanalphabeten wie mich geeignet;. vor allem das Wuwuwummern beim Anheben von der Unterlage, außergewöhnliches Aussehen; Möglichkeit, es umzustimmen (...das habe ich mich aber noch nicht getraut), seeehr entspannend und ungezwungen; ausreichend klein & leicht, es auch mal irgendwohin mitzunehmen; Ein ernsthaftes Musikinstrument - auch für nicht-ernsthafte Nicht-Musiker wie mich (das spürt man auch am Preis). Tolle Sache. Ich habe keinen Vergleich mit Billigmodellen, aber ein (klangliches) Erfolgserlebnis ist mit dieser Sansula meiner Meinung nach so gut wie garantiert. Meine ehrliche Empfehlung für alle, die interessiert und experimentierfreudig sind. Ausreichend stabil, auch für Kinderhände. Vielen Dank an den Erfinder.

Offert en cadeau d'anniversaire. Mon homme a été conquis par la douce mélodie qui sort du Kalimba quand on effleure les "touches".
