1. KEY FEATURES:
- German famous Wittner tuning fork, frequently used 440Hz and 442Hz set
- Nickel plate finish, individual case included, made in Germany
2. PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:
This is Wittner's basic tuning fork No.921. Pinch the handle of the tuning fork and tap the tip lightly to make it vibrate. While it is vibrating, you can hear the sound by bringing the tip of the handle close to a hard object or your ear. Although it is difficult to get used to, tuning with a tuning fork is a great way to train your ears, and in recent years it has become popular as a healing item. A (La) = 440 was established at an international conference held in London in 1939, and subsequently became an international standard in 1953 and has not been changed until now (2013). (Usually written as "A=440 Hz" or "A440") Time signals on TV, radio, 117, etc. also sound 440Hz three times, and finally 880Hz (one octave higher than 440Hz). However, there are many orchestras and brass bands that use a pitch of A=442 or higher, and A=442 in particular is standardized in classical music, so we sell 440 and 442 as a unique set at our store.
