Item number 2360028JE, $280.00 This kantele was handmade in the United States by the two-generation team of Folkcraft luthiers.
The body of this instrument is made of hickory, grown here in Indiana just a few miles from our shop. Hickory sands and finishes beautifully, but most importantly, it provides a strong, reflective back and sides for our kanteles. Combined with a butternut (white walnut) soundboard, this kantele has just the right amount of brightness, richness, and sustain to please the most fussy of performers.
With fifteen strings, you get a full two octave D major scale. You could easily tune your kantele to play a two octave C major scale if you preferred.
To play the instrument, you can hold it upright against your body, with the strings facing away from you, or you can lay the instrument across your lap with the strings facing upwards. While the vertical position may be more traditional, we enjoy performing with the instrument on the lap, as this allows easy use of both hands while creating music.
