"Make your concerts into spectacles with this amazing instrument."

Feature:
The theremin does not come with it's stand, but the knobs are very useful.

Quality:
Although this is the only theremin on the market as of now, I do believe were there another one it could not be any better in construction.

Desirability:
This can turn any concert into a magic show. It can mesmerize your audiences.

Sound:
The sound can't quite compare to the original theremins, but it is still excellent. Very tweakable.

Ease of Use:
Do not buy this thinking it will be easy to play. It is extremely difficult if you actually want to play. Sound effects are simple to produce, but true music takes dedicated practice.

Overall:
This instrument will stay with me hopefully for the rest of my life. Do not get this without getting a stand, and be prepared to suck at playing for a few weeks. When the playing is good however, it's a beautiful thing.

About This Product!
Description
Docs, Multimedia
Authentic theremin sound, fun to play. This is the instrument that so intrigued Bob Moog that he has spent the last 50 years building the most influential electronic musical instruments in the world. This fully-built instrument is finished in a black, all wood cabinet. Additionally there is a professional model available - the Etherwave Pro. All Etherwaves ship with two video tutorials on one DVD: Clara Rockmore: the Greatest Theremin Virtuosa, and Mastering the Theremin, featuring Lydia Kavina.

Features
Antennas: authentic shape, nickel-plated 3/8 in. brass

Cabinet: furniture-grade hardwoods and Birch plywood; Black instrument-grade finish; mounts on standard mic stand

Power: durable rocker switch, 110v wall transformer power supply

Audio Out: 1/4 in. phone jack on front panel, direct audio into your own amp/speaker

Timbre: 2 continuous rotary controls for waveform and brightness

***Just like electric guitars and many keyboards, theremins require amplification. While the Etherwave Theremin Amp is recommended, most keyboard amplifiers or PA systems should also be sufficient.
