Bergtagna Instruments Pentatonic 10 Note Cristal (Baschet) 2023

Unique 10 Note Bergtagna Cristal in a Pentatonic D-minor Scale over 2 octaves (D-F-G-A-C-d-f-g-a-c), tuned in equal temperament with A=440Hz (Other Hz is no problem, just let us know).
This is a smaller size Cristal which makes it a bit more flexible than the chromatically tuned bigger varieties. As it is tuned to a scale it is also very easy to play, making it suitable for anyone, regardless of skill level. Although it is the smallest variety of Cristal, it still has a powerful sound vibrating out from the double-Diffuser setup making it a great tool for usage within for instance yoga, or sound healing. It is also possible to create an abundance in sound effects on all sizes of Cristals by using bows, rubber mallets or just by tapping with your fingers on the threaded rods, making it a superb instrument for film- or videogame composers.

Comes with 2 inline Diffusers, one bigger stainless steel Diffuser and one smaller plastic Diffuser.
Each piece will have it’s own unique timbre due largely to the behavior of the steel diffusers as they implement their own tonality and react with the frequencies produced by the instrument. They will also be marked with a unique serial number.

Also included when purchasing one of our Bergtagna Cristals is a short manual on how to assemble/disassemble the instrument and how to tune it if need be. The necessary tools and spare parts are also included.
It’s possible to request varieties to the standard setup. This may include:
-Different tonal range
-Different diffuser setup. For instance using other materials to produce cleaner sounds, with less steel-reverb. Or a combination of Diffusers.

If you have other requests or ideas, we’re always interested in trying new things and attempt to meet your demands.
