There was just one sort of instrument, the Hang from PANArt. you only had to travel to go to them, try the instruments, and you’ll either pip out and return home with it or place an order. Over the years that followed, it became increasingly difficult to urge an instrument. As awareness of the Hang grew, demand for them increased exponentially, and PANArt quickly became unable to satisfy everyone’s requests.

In 2013, PANArt stopped making instruments, and while there have been several alternative makers who had started creating instruments, their roll s were long, thanks to pent up demand. During this point, it had been not uncommon to attend between one and three years to urge a handpan, especially if you had no connection to the hand pan world.
