Electric Kalimba


"Jamming with a drum machine and my homemade Electric Kalimba. I used a 2" x8" piece of wood for the body and the metal tines from a leaf rake for the keys. Inside are two IC's (a 4049 and a 4093) which provide gain/distortion and an oscillator for added fuzz. A voltage starve knob adds a fizzy, bubbling of the signal. Also has volume and tone knobs. Two generic single coils wired together as a humbucker pickup the vibrating metal tines." -jasonpferris
