feeltone Premium Monolina Monochord – Ebony & Ivory, Wenge & Maple, 34 Strings

Premium Monolina Monochord "Ebony & Ivory": two-tone wenge and maple wood

A two-tone Premium Monolina in dark wenge and light maple wood. The name "Ebony & Ivory" describes the black-and-white look: no ebony, ivory or any animal material is used. Like the piano keys in Paul McCartney's song, the dark and light woods sit side by side in balance. The frame, single bridges and u-stand are made of wenge; the handles and the soundboard are made of maple. The denser wood makes the instrument a little heavier, which gives it an even more intense sound.

Monochord sound examples - Which tuning suits you?

Which tuning or fundamental tone of the monochord suits you best is very personal. Take your time to feel and listen to which tone resonates with you the most or which tone challenges you to be discovered. Your monochord can always be tuned a semitone higher or lower around the fundamental tone. In our Elemental Soundscapes sound instrument sets, we have assigned elements and qualities to the fundamental tones. You may also find some orientation there.
