The diameter of the handpan is 22" (54 cm), so it can be played comfortably on the lap. The D-Sabye of the Fame handpan comes with the following tones: D | (E) (F#) G A B C# D E F# (G) A (B) (C#) (D) (E).

Handpan Six from Fame in 440 Hz with bottom notes
The central fundamental tone of handpans is in the middle, surrounded in a circle by a choir of sound fields. The individual playing surfaces are under pressure and are tuned by hand to 440 Hz; if the sound fields are struck briefly with a finger, the entire handpan vibrates, producing a linear, spherical tone with a singing sustain. A special feature of this handpan are the bottom notes on the underside. They expand the playing possibilities enormously and offer the player completely new possibilities.
Detailed quality check by our handpan expert
Like all Fame handpans, every Handpan Six is checked for workmanship and sound quality before delivery and then given our seal of quality. Since these are instruments with a high proportion of handwork, slight color deviations compared to the product image are possible.
The technique of playing a handpan is comparatively simple to learn: the playing surface is struck briefly with the fingertip, the faster the hand is then pulled away, the more beautiful the sound produced. Our product specialist Christian aka "Mister Handpan" shows further steps for learning to play the handpan in his tutorials on the MUSIC STORE Youtube Channel.
Fame Handpan Family: Perfect sound with many features
All handpans from Fame have functions that are unique in this price range: The handpans are made from a high-quality stainless steel shell, which is decorated with a stylized logo and model name on the underside. This not only ensures exceptional durability, but also gives the instrument an unmistakable look.
A key feature is the innovative sustain control function. This makes it possible to adjust the sustain individually between "mellow" and "bright" and thus fine-tune the tone of the instrument. Generation from Handpans focuses on the combination of sound aesthetics, durability and playing comfort
At a more affordable price than most handpans its good for those with lower budgets and interested beginners however the quality is excellent so shouldn't put off professional players either. Comes with a good bag, one review mentioned the shoulder straps were too short to wear as a rucksack however I found it fits fine and at 6" reckon it would fit most people fine. Overall a great product.

The sound and tone is excellent, very easy to pick up and play quickly without prior experience. I picked it up very quickly, looks beautiful also. The only knock is the back pack carry case it comes with, the back straps are not long enough to be at all useable, you can't actually use it and have to hold the handle to carry it. Apart from that, all excellent, there were a few slight marks to the finish, but overal that makes no difference to the tone
