Yishama is the most expensive handpan brand in the world - but in the handpan scene it is clearly one of the best! Almost all famous handpan players like Kabeção, David Kuckhermann, Alexandre Lora, Liron Man, Hang Massive, Reo Matsumotu, Adam Maalouf play on Yishama handpans - just to name a few of the best players.
Yishama was founded in 2014 by Yhonatan Ale-Yahav - officially known as Yonatan Bar. Yhonatan began his "handpan journey" in a small house in the Carmel Mountains in Israel, where he spent a lot of time hammering and delving deep into the world of steel and tuning. In 2017, Ido Siri joined Yishama and helped push the boundaries of what is possible with his great passion for making high quality instruments. His vision matched Yhonatan's and a new chapter for Yishama began. Today Yishama builds on 3 different sizes 50cm, 53cm and 56cm, with a material thickness of 1.0mm and 1.2mm, handpans with over 20 notes as well as a range from E2 as the lowest note to E6 as the highest note.
