Don't over-think the kalimba - use whatever you have at hand for the tines. I have used bicycle spokes, fishtape and a lot of other material but the majority of my builds were done with lawn rake tines. I picked up the rakes at Lowes or a "real" garden store rather than Wally World. Their stuff was so flimsy, it was pathetic. Remember - you're having fun!

This will explain how to wire a battery into the ac plug. Have fun!

At 6:40am on March 22, 2010, Bill Ludeman said…: Hi Ed, I am very curious about how well your CBG's were received by the blue grass folks, did they like them ?? Did you sell any? I haven't been able to afford to go to any of the local festivals as they are more expensive than a rock concert - typically forty five bucks a head for one day around here. Seventy five for three days !! I can't fathom it being worth that kind of $$ Your feedback would be very valuable to me. Thanks Bill Ludeman

At 9:18am on March 2, 2010, Ed Wentling (the younger one) said…: Hey dad, check out the noisy cricket amp at beavis audio. Lots of other good info on their site too.

Sincerely, Laurie

Most of all, have fun!

Tres.
