Description
One of the best entry-level handpans for quality, price, and capability is the Generation 4. Best praised across all of our sites and long-considered our most versatile handpan and by far our most popular since its introduction to NovaPans in 2018, the Generation 4s have played a significant role in making handpans more accessible (playable and affordable) to the greater public. The Generation 4s have challenged and transcended the outdated belief that a competitively-priced handpan couldn't be high-quality or playable and now over 800+ ecstatic NovaPan Generation 4 customers are enjoying learning on their Gen 4s handpans since their introduction. With its easy access to harmonics, pitch bends and control over dynamics, intonation, and projection, the Generation 4 goes beyond "the best starter handpan" bur further still, a handpan that'll last for a lifetime. Players looking for the next model up or upgrade to a Generation 4 should check out either our Generation 3 range (for performances) or Generation 7s (the all-round meditative and mesmerizing model, our best handpan right now).
A History of NovaPans Handpans
All NovaPans Handpans are hand-tuned and quality-checked by professionals from Europe and the USA who are situated in China, Europe, and previously, Vietnam and Ukraine. Instead of an underpriced handpan from China that hasn't met quality standards or an overpriced handpan from home whose price and availability is unattainable (or impractical) by most, NovaPans sits somewhere in the middle, making top-quality handpans that are affordable yet offer all the valued added services such as quality assurance, handpan tutorials, handpan accessories favorable returns and more. Please do not hesitate to contact us should you have any questions regarding your purchase (or similar) whatsoever.
The combination of handpan production expertise where quality mass production is a reality now allows NovaPans to not only create high-quality handpans, but to make them in quantity. The widespread misinformation that you must spend thousands, wait months/years, and only purchase locally in order to even consider seeing a quality handpan, is just not true and is often spread by those original resellers in the early 2000s who would profit over the handpan industry's overwhelming demand vs supply. NovaPans has sold well over 3000 handpans since 2016 and has received the highest of reviews on all platforms to reflect this. NovaPans continues to break the boundaries of how much we need to spend in order to get a quality musical instrument, or dare we say, a quality musical instrument we can at least get started on! We continue to prioritize our customers' financial, personalization, and range of selection needs before anything else. Welcome to NovaPans Handpans, the world's most accessible, affordable and quick-delivery handpans.
Disclaimer:
☆ Every handpan may display signs of tuning marks to some extent which is a natural production trait considering that all of our handpans are hand-tuned. These are not scratches but in fact, very subtle indents and practically non-visible unless scrutinized.
☆ It is not uncommon to use an electronic tuner and notice a slight microtonal offset for any of your handpan notes. This is actually the case with all handpans and is not a reflection of quality in any way. Any model that does not pass our quality checks is returned for reproduction and retuning.
☆ We offer a 30-day return policy (or as stipulated in our policy here) but also make exceptions under special circumstances - we are a very human "business", despite what a corporation is "meant" to be (we wouldn't have the best reviews on Etsy if we weren't!).
☆ Also, should you require any future retuning services, we will help contribute towards them!
☆ Customers from Australia/New Zealand and Taiwan should consult the designated NovaPans Australia and Taiwan teams for purchase.
