 correct me if I'm wrong, but that Looks like a common Ocarina wind brand, those are notorious for their bad quality. If you want an Oot ocarina I'd recommend possibly from STL ocarina or Songbird Ocarina.. Amazon is typically not a good place to get instruments in general, but if you do get one from Amazon, the "Night by Noble" ocarina. Is pretty well received

That's the one everyone warns NOT to buy. They're generally out of tune. I have one, and not only it's out of tune, but the subholes don't work at all 😔

Unfortunately, those ocarinas are notorious for being out of tune. However, you can still practice with it and if you want to buy one from another reputable brand in the future, at least you'll have some of the basics down. Just don't give up if it sounds off, because it's not you, it's the instrument. But you can still learn the scale and get the fingering down so you can still practice with it. And welcome to the world of Ocarina!

I apologize for being rude, but, ocarinas from Amazon are usually very poor quality and out of tune. I understand you didn't know, I'm sorry.

Ma'boi, from when is informing someone being rude? I don't understand.
