☕ How To Read Kalimba Number Tabs | Kalimba Guide ✨

How To Read Kalimba Number Tabs A Kalimba Guide for Beginners. Since most of my Kalimba tutorials use number notation tabs and I got a lot of comments asking how to read them, so I thought of making a video for anyone who wants to learn how to read them. Number notations tabs are the tabs I got used to when I started learning Kalimba that's why most of the tabs on my channel use them. I hope you learn something new from my video. Happy Playing!

Hello there, I'm Sam. I've been playing the Kalimba since 5/22/2020 and this is my progress and journey. I wanted to share the melodies this enchanting instrument makes through covers of my favorite songs. Feel free to comment any song requests you would like me to do in the future!
Don't forget to leave a comment to let me know if you enjoyed this video, it really means a lot to me! :)

I've just purchased my first Kalimba, I'm not very musically inclined and struggle reading music sheets. However, I've always wanted to learn an instrument and the Kalimba feels achievable. This video is helpful and I'll be sure to check out more of your tutorials while I'm learning! :)

Kalimba is a wonderful choice for anyone wanting to learn an instrument. I have a kalimba guide playlist you can check out on my channel to get you started :)

I was so dumb and confused what were those Dots above those numbers what and which to pluck, Now i know after watching this, Lemme hit Subscribe to offer you my gratitude💜

[@zoomkia2396]

Which Kalimba do you recommend more? A wood or acrylic? 😅

[@SamSalvador]

If you want a detailed answer you can check out this video where I compare both kalimbas and talk about which I recommend for different situations kzbin.info/www/bejne/pmGppIOcnNuepLM

[@zoomkia2396]

Sam Salvador ok thank you! Sorry I didn’t see that you already had a video on it. 😅

[@minzhang3734]

Wood is for beginners and is lighter and acrylic is more heavy

[@fayth6717]

Wooden Kalimba is for beginners, buy it if you don’t mind getting another Kalimba in the future. It’s alright lighter, an Acrylic Kalimba is made out of plastic but is heavy like glass, it’s for more of professionals, tho I can’t buy another Kalimba since it’s way to much money so I bough the acrylic one while I was still a. Beginner.
