"TOTEM MUSIC Handpan
Made in France in steel (not nitride)
On top Locrian scale :E/B-C-D-E-F-G-A-B
Bottom Hijaz scale : E/A-Bb-C-D-E-F-A-Bb
My handpans are not nitrided. 58cm in diameter with 8 or 9 notes on different models.
Handpan, mysterious sounding instrument was invented in Switzerland at the end of the last century. Arisen from the fusion of the steel drum of Trinidad and the Chinese gamelan.
My handpans are completely handmade in my studio. Every instrument have a unique colourful tone, resulting from a complex alchemy allying a perpetual sound research and spiritual energy transmitted from the hands to the metal."

Well I definately don't want this spiritual energy he puts into his HandCans transmitted to me!

Yes--don"t want to bash any aspiring makers but this one (mostly as Stickydrums) has been making and selling for YEARS!

He calls them prototypes--sometimes--but he's selling at various prices them for several years now. He's a professional instrument maker. And the quality never improves above unsellable. Guess he's not changing his brand name for nothing...
And "Chinese gamelan", for X's sake? It's Javanese. What's the use of proving you don't know what you're talking about as a marketing tool?

Worst part is, there is a shop in France that sells these in their store.

Yes, it seems it is in an, um, unusual key. If I remember correctly from my music theory studies, it is referred to as the key of off.
