I really do love this. August 14, 2010 Reece (UK) While I was surfing Amazon, my dad says to me that he bets Amazon does not have a Stylophone, I done a quick surf, and they do.
My dad had been saying to me how much he'd enjoyed them in his days, so I got one.
I can now play around 10 songs on the it, and it's pretty fun. This also doubles up as a speaker, so you can play mp3's through the stylophone. It has a nice design, and was great for the price.
Really happy with this overall, for the money, delivery time and the item itself.
Blast from the past July 20, 2010 TJW (UK) I bought this for my son, who is far more musical than I. Within minutes, he'd connected it to a guitar fuzzbox and speakers, and was making incredible music and sound effects. Great fun!
Amazing July 14, 2010 Z-Family Sometimes the noise dosent come out but apart from that it is perfect! Brett Domino came to our school, he's a proffessional stylophonist!
Perfect working condition June 27, 2010 José Ramón M G The Stylophone arrived on due expected time, the item came perfectly wrapped to avoid damages and I just had to put the batteries and start to play. It works and sounds great. I am very pleased with this purchase. Thank you
Cheap repro is adequate but build quality not great May 28, 2010 Timothy J. Smith (UK) I use this in a semi-pro studio - the sound is transformed when put through effects & amplifiers.
Although a very close copy of the original physically, it is a digital emulation of the old analogue oscillator/ cirtcuitboard so not quite authentic soundwise. However you wouldn't worry about that in isolation or if it's just bought for fun.
Unless used professionally the sound can be very irritating - but at least it comes with an earphone and a volume control - something the original didn't ever address entirely.
Close up & in use - well it's fun to play but feels a bit flimsy - I am on my second as the first one failed - I think though I did drop it to be fair!! The sixties originals that I also have feel a lot more solid and are all repairable - the new one is sealed and probably has no serviceable parts but that's the modern world we live in.
I'll recommend it as it's cheap and looks the part - but if you are a musician - as you can buy the original cheaply on EBay why not do that instead?
As to what you can do with one - Google Brett Domino - a lofi artist and an inspiration to us all bless 'im.
