The M1 Shruti Box, sets a new standard in sound quality, ease of playing and construction. It provides an ideal accompaniment for the voice and musical exploration and can be enjoyed by anyone without training. Hand made from solid wood: the body is pine; the reedboard is teak; the high grade metal reeds are from India's leading manufacturer.
Three different tunings are available: C, A# and Low G, each with a one octave chromatic scale based on A440 concert pitch:
M1 Low G:
Tonal range: One octave 13 tone chromatic scale from G2 to G3 (piano equivalent). Each of the thirteen reeds are individually tuned and voiced.
Pitch: A=440 standard concert
Sound: Lowest pitch and deepest tone of our three tunings. Features bronze heavier-gauge reeds for tonal definition in the lower register. The pronounced harmonics give the Low G a full, rich and slightly darker tone than the brass reeds used on the C and A# model.
