Where next?

 

This tablature-based book contains musical examples for most of these exotic tunings (though we mostly skip C and G tunings, as they have detailed instruction in other downloads). The music examples have downwload links so you can hear how they go. Also, there are four YouTube videos showing these exotic Star-13 Kalimbas in action. And you can even download the guitar backing tracks I used. Also, blank tablature, blank chord charts, and blank tuning charts are available for you to document your own music and tunings!

 

Suggested uses: Get this download and familiarize yourself with the various tunings, and then decide which you want to get.

If you already have a Star-13 Kalimba, get this download to help you on your journey!

If you don’t have a Star-13 Kalimba, get one in your favorite tuning.

Or, you can get several Star-13 Kalimbas, in each of the tunings you like.
