{"product_id":"yataopan-d-kurd-17","title":"YataoPan D Kurd 17","description":"\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eThe YataoPan D Kurd 17 is the our fullest expression of the world's most beloved handpan scale. Where the standard D Kurd already offers everything a player could ask for, this 17 note Master Line instrument goes further - adding a deep, resonant bass foundation and an extended upper register that together transform the D Kurd into a complete, self-contained musical world. This is not an instrument for getting started. It is an instrument for players who already know what they want, and who want the very best of it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFor Advanced Players and Serious Musicians\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eThe D Kurd is the most played handpan scale in the world - logical in layout, emotionally rich, and endlessly versatile. The four bottom notes - Bb2, C3, F3, and G3 - reach down into a register that gives the instrument extraordinary depth, while the extended top range climbs to a bright F5, opening up a wide melodic and harmonic canvas. Together, these seventeen notes allow for complex chord voicings, full-bodied arrangements, and fluid movement between deep, meditative passages and soaring melodic lines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eThe deep D3 ding anchors everything with its characteristic warmth, and the additional bass notes give the player a genuine low end to build from. This is a handpan for players who compose, who perform, and who want an instrument that can keep up with the full scope of their musical imagination.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube-nocookie.com\/embed\/5yaPCtgJUF8\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat’s in the Box?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eYataoPan D Kurd 17\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBag of Your Choice\u003c\/strong\u003e: A convenient and stylish way to carry your handpan.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandpan Care Pack\u003c\/strong\u003e: Everything you need to keep your instrument in top condition.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCare Instructions\u003c\/strong\u003e: Easy-to-follow guidelines for maintaining your handpan.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDimensions \u0026amp; Weight\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 53 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 26 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.5 kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScale\u003c\/strong\u003e: Kurd\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKey\u003c\/strong\u003e: D Minor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTop side notes\u003c\/strong\u003e: D3 – A3, Bb3, C4, D4, E4, F4, G4, A4, C5, D5, E5, F5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBottom side notes\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bb2, C3, F3, G3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandard Pitch\u003c\/strong\u003e: 440 Hz\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"text-text-100 mt-2 -mb-1 text-base font-bold\"\u003eSound and Build\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eThe YataoPan D Kurd 17 is crafted from \u003cstrong\u003estainless steel\u003c\/strong\u003e, chosen for its clean, precise tone and long-term tuning stability. Stainless steel delivers a clear fundamental with well-defined overtones and reliable sustain - a material that suits the wide range of this instrument perfectly, allowing the deep bass notes to resonate fully while keeping the upper register bright and articulate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eThe defining quality of this instrument is its range. The deep D3 ding, supported by the Bb2 and C3 bass notes, gives the D Kurd 17 a low-end presence that is felt as much as heard. From there, the instrument opens up through the full natural minor scale and climbs into an extended upper register, giving the player a complete tonal palette to work with. Six complete triads allow for rich harmonic and rhythmic creativity across the entire range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eEvery YataoPan is personally played and checked before it leaves us. Instruments that don't pass are reworked on-site - including retuning, resealing, and quality corrections.
