Lovely ...but treat it gently
I got this because it can be amplified and I love the Nigerian and Tanzanian music from the Sixties I've heard that have Kalimba/thumb piano in them.
I foolishly let my friend play it who can get quite frenetic because he has Parkinson's and I think he dropped it a few times so that the wood on the top cracked, but it hasn't affected the sound as far as I can tell.
So it's easy to record, and you can play it through a guitar amp if you want. It looks and sounds nice and I can believe it's Koa wood... should have told my friend that it should only be played with thumbs though, so my advice is to treat it gently.
