  • by entering your model number.
  • Included with learning tutorials and online 121s.
  • Nitrided Gold Coating (for anti-rust). Our Generation 4 Handpans (generation number devised by when it was introduced to our store at Handpan Planet), all come with a gorgeous gold coating. Despite its beauty, it is in fact a protective layer against rust, a coating which you’ll find being used across all handpans and which is called a “nitrided coating”.
  • D Kurd scale in 9 Notes!: (D3), A3, Bb3, C4, D4, E4, F4, G4 and A4. Forever deemed the Daniel Waples’ scale or even that of Hang Massive, the D Kurd scale is one used by thousands of handpan players out there, simply because it used to be the only handpan scale available.
  • Comes included with a stool, soft bag, and cleaning cloth. The stool this comes is perfect for low-ground practicing and can be dually used as a handpan stand. The miniature beater which is included is optional and only recommended for harmonic testing instead of actual performing. The cleaning cloth and soft bag are sturdy and long lasting.
  • The handpan is a wholly immersive and intuitive instrument which even the most entry-level of musicians can learn. Ideal for meditation in groups or on an individual basis, teaching music theory, or playing with friends and family.
  • The largest difference between a 440hz and a 432hz-tuned handpan is that 440hz is the frequency at which the most instruments are tuned. The 432hz frequency (coming soon to our store) is one which has greater ties with the world of spiritual healing, meditation and connection with mother Earth. Consider researching “why” they call the 432hz frequency “Nature’s Healing Frequency” or “The Miracle Frequency”. It really is fascinating!

Product description

The 9 Note Handpan in D Kurd Minor by Handpan Planet is the best entry-level handpan there currently is. Long deemed our most versatile, there’s no doubt why it has become our most popular handpan since its introduction to our store in October 2019. The notes sing beautifully with an all-around level of control over both intonation and projection across the whole D Minor scale. The combination of its nitrided (anti-rust) gold coating and minor-reduced thickness of each note gives life to not only a handpan which is practical to transport at only 8lbs and gorgeous to look at but whose notes allow for a simplicity overproducing their harmonics and pitch bends. There are numerous handpans out there claiming to be top quality and worth every cent of their $1000+ price tag. Even the lower-end handpans within the hundred-dollar sign mark seek to gain a competitive edge by promoting masked short-lasting projection and microtonal dissonances because people are desperate to get a handpan. At Handpan Planet, our only ever intention was to make these beautiful instruments more accessible, and we despise the likes of the pioneering handpan community who encouraged and still today, encourage us to spend all our budget on a handpan we would have been just as happy purchasing for a fraction of the cost. We’ve trialled every single one of the handpans on the market since our formation in 2016 and as a team of handpan tuners, players, and makers, can confidently present the Generation 4 (this model) as by far the best value for money there is for a handpan. Our quality control process is meticulous, by ensuring that every handpan which leaves our factory meets a certain requirement. Don’t hesitate to contact us should you have any questions whatsoever. Everybody deserves a handpan and at a reasonable price, but a handpan which is of good quality too.
