## Description

Otamatone: Touch-Based Music Sensation from Japan! Borrowing the Japanese word for tadpole "otama" and "tone" for some fun wordplay, this theremin like musical instrument is for anybody. Despite its quirky appearance, it is not just for kids! Even teens and adults can enjoy the innovative design from Maywa Denki. No musical background necessary! You can hammer away at it like it was a keyboard piano or finger its stem like it was a recorder, there is no wrong way to use it!

Review: Divertente e originale! L’Otamatone è un prodotto davvero unico! L’ho comprato per curiosità ed è diventato subito un passatempo divertentissimo per tutta la famiglia. È facile da usare, emette suoni simpatici e fa ridere anche solo per il suo aspetto buffo. Ottimo anche come regalo originale! Non è uno strumento professionale, ovviamente, ma per divertirsi e fare qualcosa di diverso è perfetto. Spedizione veloce e prodotto conforme alla descrizione....
Review: Great
