Meinl Sonic Energy KL2101S Kalimba

Meinl Sonic Energy KL2101S Kalimba – 21-Note Solid Kalimba in C Major

Crafted from high-quality black walnut wood, the Meinl Sonic Energy KL2101S Kalimba offers a warm, resonant tone and an elegant feel, both in design and sound. With 21 precisely tuned notes in the C major scale, this kalimba allows for a rich, harmonious tonal sequence, making it suitable for meditation, relaxation, and intuitive music-making.

This solid kalimba is part of Meinl’s Sonic Energy series, known for blending traditional craftsmanship with modern precision. Its roots trace back to Africa, where the kalimba—also called mbira or thumb piano—has been played for centuries. Metal tines mounted on a solid wooden body are plucked by the thumbs to produce an ethereal, bell-like tone.

The KL2101S comes with a range of thoughtful accessories: a padded protective case for safe transport, a linen bag, a microfiber cleaning cloth, and a tuning hammer for pitch adjustments—everything you need to maintain and carry your instrument with care.
