The tone orchestras tune to
440 Hz is the internationally accepted chamber pitch, the standard A that musicians all over the world use to tune their instruments. With this tuning fork you always have a reliable reference at hand: strike it, hold it to your ear, and you immediately hear the pure tone to which you can adjust your violin, guitar or singing voice. It works without batteries or a phone and never runs out.
Not just for tuning: vibration on the body
The gentle vibration of the fork is also popular for sound therapy purposes: placing its base on the body lets the vibration softly spread through the area, which many people find calming. One tool thus serves both as a musical aid and as a companion for winding down.
Nickel-free steel, maple handle
The fork is made of black-finished, nickel-free steel, good news for those with sensitive skin. The maple wood handle gives a comfortable, secure grip. It is approx. 14.5 cm long and weighs only 74 grams, so it fits easily into an instrument case or bag.
Who will find it useful?
Musicians and singers for daily tuning, music teachers in the classroom, and sound therapists as a basic piece of their fork collection. Made in Germany with care, so it stays accurate for years.
How to sound it
Hold the handle and strike one prong against your knee or a rubber surface - never against a hard object, which can alter the pitch. Rest the end of the handle on a wooden table top and the wood will amplify the vibration noticeably.
