VERIFIED BUYER

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us.

Sound: I really have no comparison to tell whether or not this particular melodica has a superior/inferior sound. To my ear, it sounds fine. It is what I expected. Feature: I was pleased that the instrument came with a nice case. It also came with a longer tube to be used in place of the mouthpiece. I, personally, have difficulty in controlling the airflow with the tube. I am a singer, so it probably has to do with a mind set about filling that long tube. I enjoy the short mouthpiece more. Ease of Use: It's great! I've had a lot of fun with it. I noticed that the finger placement has to be nearer the outside end of the keys than to the top of the keys. This has required a bit of adjustment due to the way I hold the instrument. Had a bit of trouble getting Middle C to play initially, but I have a feeling this was operator error. Quality: Other than the previously mentioned problem with Middle C, I have had no problems with the instrument. It's portable and fun. Great if I just need to sightread something and don't have access to a piano or organ. Value: I priced the instrument on the internet. This seemed to be the best price around. Manufacturer Support: Have had no need to contact them. The Wow Factor: Sorry - I don't attach any "sex appeal" to the instrument. Overall: It is giving me what I wanted. If I become more proficient in playing it, I might spring for a larger or differently voiced model, but am happy with this one for the time being.

Back to Product Information

Sound: It sounds great, especially for the price. Not quite as good as the $80 smaller one, but very good. Feature: It comes with a nice soft case, slightly reinforced. It's a little big...but it's easier to play. The tube is nice for learning to 'get used to it'. Ease of Use: It is, what it is. Quality: Feels alright for such an inexpensive item. Kind of toyish, but it's a great value for the $$. Value: Great value. The Wow Factor: I saw it, which made me want one. Overall: Great little portable, self powered musical item, that sounds a cross between a harmonica/accordion...reed instrument, but plays like a keyboard. Awesome. I have to say I ordered a different one from a competitor and never got it. Zzounds had this to me in 3 days, standard shipping. I love this company. Thanks Zzounds!
