(At least close)** A: Mine came tuned and ready to play 🙂 I had been mentally practicing a song the week before I bought it and when it came in, I played and the notes where all tuned nice ☺️ **Q: Does it come with sheet music?** A: Yes, the seller will send you an email with a link to two PDF files. One Song Book and one Beginners Book. You will need to print them out if you want the actual sheet music. **Q: Does this kalimba comes with a carrying case with a separate compartment for the tuning hammer of some sort?** A: My Kalimba did not come with any carrying case other than the velveteen pouch (cozy for it to rest but not safe to travel with it's tuning hammer). **Q: Sizes of the piano?** A: not sure if the 17 and 21 key are the same size, but the 17 key is 5.5 inches wide at its widest point, 7 inches long, and about 3 inches thick (that's a combo of the body and the protruding keys) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by C***S on December 25, 2025* ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by S***M on December 14, 2025* ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by M***S on February 2, 2026* ## Frequently Bought Together - Newlam Kalimba Thumb Piano 17 Keys, Portable Mbira Finger Piano Gifts for Kids and Adults Beginners Wood - Kalimba Lessons for Beginners with 50 Songs: Theory and Practice + Online Videos - Kalimba Songbook: 50 Easy Classic Songs --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/119882043-newlam-kalimba-thumb-piano-17-keys-portable-mbira-finger-piano](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/119882043-newlam-kalimba-thumb-piano-17-keys-portable-mbira-finger-piano) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-09*
