Sound and character
The A-tuned Monolina is overtone-rich with a minor character. Inward-leaning, slightly melancholic but never heavy, it opens a space in which the listener can more easily attune to their own inner silence. The fine vibrations of the overtones arrive in gentle waves. The Jasmin finish, with its bright, soft maple grain, visually balances the introspective tonality.
How to use
- Deep relaxation sessions, emotional sound processing
- Meditation and inward-focused practices
- Individual sound therapy, supportive trauma work (with trained professionals)
- Quiet evening rituals and pre-sleep regeneration
You receive a practical Feeltone carry bag, maple round stands and handles, protective mats, 2 santoori and 2 felt mallets, plus an online introduction. The melody section can be set with 5 bridges and a pentatonic major/minor template.
Why this product
If you are drawn to the deep, inward quality of a minor character and wish to bring a rich overtone world into your work, the A-tuned Jasmin Monolina is an excellent choice. The bright maple creates a serene balance to the introverted tonal character.
Care tips
- Tune before playing with the included tuner
- Play slowly with long pauses so the overtones can unfold
- Mind the brass pins on the bridges when placing them
- Store in a dry place inside the bag, away from direct sunlight
