Customized Instruments
Custom Handpans – Designed Around Your Music
A handpan should be as unique as the musician who plays it. Our Kita Custom Handpans are built to your exact specifications, allowing you to create an instrument that perfectly matches your musical style, performance needs, and artistic vision.
Whether you’re looking for an uncommon scale, an extended note range, or a truly one-of-a-kind instrument, our experienced makers can craft a handpan designed exclusively for you.
Build Your Perfect Handpan
Unlike standard handpans, our custom instruments offer complete flexibility. Choose the scale, note layout, material, finish, and configuration that best fits your playing style.
From compact instruments for travel to professional extended-range handpans for advanced musicians, every instrument is handcrafted, individually tuned, and built with exceptional attention to detail.
Extended Range – Up to 23 Notes
Looking for more musical possibilities? Our custom handpans can feature up to 23 notes, providing a significantly larger melodic and harmonic range than traditional handpans.
Additional notes allow for:
Greater musical expression
Expanded chord possibilities
More complex compositions
Improved performance flexibility
Seamless transitions between octaves
Whether you’re a performer, composer, or recording artist, an extended-range handpan opens up entirely new creative possibilities.
Low Scales Starting from E2
We specialize in building deep, low-frequency handpans, with scales starting as low as E2.
These low-register instruments produce powerful bass tones with remarkable depth and resonance, making them especially popular for:
Sound healing
Meditation
Ambient music
Solo performances
Professional recordings
The rich, immersive sound of an E2 handpan creates a unique musical experience that cannot be achieved with higher-pitched instruments.
Available in Two Premium Materials
Every custom Kita handpan can be built in your choice of:
Nitrided Steel
Ideal for players seeking the traditional handpan sound with warm tones, excellent articulation, and strong projection.
Stainless Steel
Perfect for musicians who prefer long sustain, crystal-clear resonance, and excellent resistance to humidity and corrosion.
Handmade to Order
Every custom Kita handpan is individually handcrafted and tuned by skilled artisans. No two instruments are exactly alike. From the first hammer strike to the final tuning session, every detail is carefully refined to ensure exceptional sound quality, tuning stability, and playing comfort.
