Choosing your first handpan can get overwhelming very quickly: different scales, steels, tunings, note counts, prices, cases… and a lot of conflicting opinions online. So I created Your First Handpan to make that process simpler. Inside, I walk through the main things worth understanding before choosing an instrument. Without getting lost in unnecessary technical detail. The idea is to help you listen more, overthink less, and feel clearer about what might suit you. My hope is that the right instrument finds you. And when it does, The Handpan Temple is here to help with the next part too — giving you the tools to actually play, explore and express yourself through sound.

I’m happy to help. 🙏

When I first discovered the handpan, I fell straight into the rabbit hole. Scales. Steels.Tunings.Prices.Makers.Note counts.432Hz or 440Hz. It can get confusing very quickly. The funny thing is… the handpan itself is actually one of the most intuitive instruments to begin with. You don’t need years of theory to start making music. But choosing your first one? That’s where most people get overwhelmed. So I created a simple free guide to help beginners understand what actually matters before buying their first handpan... and what they can stop worrying about. Honestly, I wish I had this guide when I started. Less thinking. More listening.

I think this handpan is having an identity crisis... it thinks it's a piano! 😅 This custom made F Pygmy 19 is the newest addition to the Handpan Temple Signature Series, spanning an incredible 3 octaves from C#3 to C6. It keeps the intuitive, hypnotic feel of the classic F Pygmy, while opening up a whole new world of bass, chords, octaves and melody. I've just released a new Pan of the Month video where I break down the layout, share a few musical ideas, and explain why this has become one of my favourite instruments. 🎥 Watch the video below and let me know what you think! 🎁 Community Gift As a thank you for being part of the Handpan Temple community, I'd love to give you two little gifts: ✅ FREE F Pygmy Chord Chart PDF to help you explore this beautiful tuning.
