feeltone Octave Monochord Table – Basic (No Add-Ons)
The feeltone Octave Monochord Table is a 60-string sound massage table: 30 overtone strings and 30 bass strings, tuned an octave apart, played beneath the person lying on it.
Lie back on the flat reclining surface and feel the sound move through your whole body. The overtone strings give a bright, shimmering sound carpet; the bass strings add depth and vibration you can feel.
This is the base table with no add-ons.

- 30 wound bass strings in D, 15 on each side
Why the tuning holds
Inside the table is a carefully designed sound chamber structure, proprietary to feeltone. It keeps the tuning stable while someone is lying on the table, and it gives this model its brilliant overtones and deep bass.
Is this the right instrument to start with?
You don't have to be a musician to play the Octave Monochord Table. We do recommend some experience with string instruments or a monochord, so that the basic playing techniques are already familiar. Learning on a monochord table without ever having played a monochord is not easy.
To help you get the best out of your purchase, we include a free Level I course, online or in person.
Prefer to start small? Begin with a Monolini or Monolina. When you are ready for a table, trade it in and we will credit the full purchase price of the instrument toward your Octave Monochord Table. You pay only the shipping to send it back to us.

Good to know
- For tuning, loosen four screws and the table turns on its axis, so the strings face you.
- After a session, help your client up and stay with them until they are standing; circulation can be unsteady after a long treatment.
