Each tongue is numbered by note, so you can follow along whether you play with your fingers or the supplied sticks. The tongues are tuned to a major scale, which keeps everything sounding pleasant even if you're just tapping about with no plan in mind.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt 90mm tall and 150mm in diameter, and weighing 570g, this is a compact drum that sits comfortably in your lap or on a table. It comes finished in silver. Steel tongue drums (sometimes called tank drums or hank drums) work by vibrating the cut tongues when struck, giving a soft, ringing tone that carries well without being harsh. The lotus petal layout groups the notes in a way that's easy to reach across.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe supply the TD6-SV with a pair of playing sticks and thimbles for finger playing, along with a drawstring bag for storage and carrying. A beginner's guide is included too, so you have a starting point if this is your first tongue drum. It's a sensible choice for educational settings, meditation groups and music therapy work, where the numbered notes and forgiving tuning make it approachable for people of all ages and abilities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNotes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8 tuned tongues (major scale)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDimensions\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e90mm x 150mmØ\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.57KG\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow many notes does the TD6-SV have?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt has eight tuned tongues, arranged as a major scale and numbered by note so you can follow a beginner's guide easily.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat's included with the drum?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou get the drum, a pair of playing sticks, thimbles for finger playing, a drawstring bag and a beginner's guide.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow big is it?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt measures 90mm tall by 150mm in diameter and weighs 570g, so it's easy to hold or set on a table.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I play it with my fingers?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes.
