Sela Handpan

What is a Sela Handpan?

The Sela Percussion Handpan is a beginner-friendly instrument where percussion and melody meet. Playing the Handpan creates soothing and long-lasting soundscapes that completely captivate both the player and the listener. No previous experience or knowledge of music theory is needed, because all the notes on the handpan are on a fixed scale. In most models, it is not possible to strike dissonant, i.e. "wrong" sounding notes. That's why you can follow your own intuition while playing and lose yourself in mysterious, dreamlike melodies after only a short time. With a little practice, more complex rhythms, fascinating chords, and two-part melodies are possible.

A high-quality Sela Percussion Handpan costs from 995 Euro to 2890 Euro. The most affordable model is the Sela Melody Handpan D Kurd 220 and the most expensive models can be found in the Selan Majesty series.

Why handpans are so expensive?

Supply and demand

If you could buy a hand pan in any music store, the price of the hand pan would probably be quite low. But since good hand pans are made by only a handful of people (supply) and many people want to buy a hand pan (demand), the price of a hand pan is high. The highest quality and best Sela Handpan can be found at Lainee. You can come and see Handpans at our store in Turku, where our expert staff will help you choose the right handpan for you.
