The F# Low Pygmy 19 Notes is one of our most hypnotic instruments. Built for musicians who seek an immersive, meditative experience, this two-sided handpan combines 12 upper notes with 7 deep bass notes on the lower face, offering an extraordinary sonic range that envelops the listener completely.
The F# Minor Pentatonic (Pygmy) scale is universally celebrated for its deeply contemplative, trance-inducing character. Whether used in sound healing sessions, deep meditation, or experimental composition, every note resonates with a warmth and sustain that feels both ancient and boundless.
At this level, the Enixpan handpan is not merely an instrument — it is a gateway to altered states of listening. The dual-face configuration transforms the playing experience: the upper dome offers melodic complexity while the lower bass plates ground every phrase with resonant, earthly depth.
An Instrument for Serious Practitioners
The F# Low Pygmy 19 Notes is designed for players who have gone beyond technique and are ready to channel the instrument's full expressive power. The extended note range — spanning from D3 to G#5 — allows for compositions of exceptional emotional depth, from thunderous bass foundations to shimmering high melodies.
Every instrument is hand-crafted from Ember Steel, nitrided for long-term resilience and tonal stability. Each handpan is individually tuned, played, and certified by our acoustic team before leaving the workshop.

About the F# Low Pygmy Scale
The Pygmy scale originates from the musical traditions of the Aka Pygmy people of Central Africa. Its pentatonic structure — built on a minor third foundation — creates a modal soundscape that transcends cultural boundaries, evoking both ancient ritual and timeless meditation.
In the F# low tuning, the scale descends into particularly rich, resonant territory. The lower bass notes add a drone-like quality that is perfect for sound healing and trance induction, while the upper register retains the characteristic Pygmy shimmer.
This instrument spans nearly 3 full octaves from D3 to G#5, making it one of the most versatile meditative handpans available.
Is the F# Low Pygmy suitable for beginners?
This instrument is classified as Expert due to its 19-note dual-face configuration. Managing two playing surfaces simultaneously requires experience and physical coordination. We recommend starting with a 9 or 10-note model and progressing toward this instrument after several months of regular practice.
How does the dual-face system work?
The upper dome features 12 tonal notes arranged in the traditional handpan layout around the central Ding. The lower face features 7 bass note plates positioned around the bottom of the instrument. Players alternate between faces, creating rich harmonic textures by combining high melodies with deep bass resonances. It takes time to master but opens an entirely new dimension of expression.
What is the difference between 440 Hz and 432 Hz tuning?
440 Hz is the international standard tuning used in classical music, jazz, and most contemporary recordings. It is the best choice for ensemble playing or recording with other musicians.
432 Hz is favoured by sound healers and meditation practitioners who believe it produces a warmer, more resonant tone that aligns better with natural frequencies. Both tunings are available at no additional cost.
What is included with the handpan?
Every F# Low Pygmy 19 Notes includes: the handpan itself (individually certified), a premium protective bag, a microfibre cleaning cloth, a desiccant pouch for humidity control, and access to the Enixpan Learning Platform with video lessons and community support.
