The popular Octave Monochord MO-60MO is tuned to D and can easily be tuned to the equally coveted C#. It is strung with 30 blank overtone strings and 30 wound bass strings. Of course, as with all stringed instruments,the Hertz frequency can be changed individually from 440 HZ to 432 HZ. When mounted on the wooden plate, the MO-60O can be played vertically so that it establishes the connection between the cosmos and the earth like a tree. In this version, the instrument can be played sitting cross-legged, on a meditation cushion or on a chair, or even standing up. The overtone strings are played evenly on one side and then the bass strings are stroked on the other side to create a sound carpet. This creates a swaying body movement that supports balancing the body. In terms of sound, the bass strings follow the overtone strings, then the bass strings again and so on, playing infinity. The included feeltone u-stands allow the MO-60MO to be played horizontally. To play the instrument horizontally, sitting on a chair, the extensions can be attached to the u-stands.

A wonderfully spherical instrument to accompany Monolinasounds in playing circles, ensembles, sound baths or sound meditations.
