A CLOSER LOOK

More than
a collection of notes.

Discovery instruments are hand-formed and hand-hammered through Pan Inc’s maker-development process. Tuning is checked and completed under workshop oversight. Ask which instruments are ready to play, or discuss a build.

Who it’s for

Curious beginners and developing players who want a handmade instrument with more scale options.
