  • I’m just a beginner… but it brings such a new color palette and expressiveness.

    Such a nice and well built product. Wow! And the sound!! Hell, I’m just a beginner but it brings such a new color palette and expressiveness to the sound. Can’t really cup well with my hands – but with your mute, it’s so easy.

    Denis Bouchard
    Beginner Player
  • Loving it.

    He’s very funny and relatable and I feel more confident that even though I don’t understand music, I can still become a great player.
