Nyamaropa Mbira (Bb pitch) made by Samuel Mujuru

Description

7″ (18 cm) wide board, 8″ (20 cm) key spread, 24-key mbira with metal beads on wire buzzers and wired construction, soft and mellow sound. The tuning is “Magaya Standard” (lowest note around B flat) nyamaropa tuning. When out of stock, we can tune his B nyamaropa mbiras down to this pitch, for a fee, or you can do it yourself.
