My favorite strings ! I've tried a lot of different ones,but decided to stop on Obligato.And most of all I admire E String,gold-plated one.It sounds brilliant ! | 1positive

Cool product! Very hard to figure out. Should have come with easier software. Should have pre-programmed beats and stuff. Overall, I like it but I am still not comfortable using it. | 0negative

Don't waste your hard-earned money here. These cabinets are not suited for gigging. The pole mounts are flimsy and one of them broke the second time it was used causing the pole mounting the 15" speaker on top to go through the cabinet. Fortunately there were two of us that were still holding the speaker and it doesn't appear that the driver or crossover were damaged. The cabinets are muddy with no definition and are useless to our band. Very disappointed. | 0negative

Don't get me wrong--this isn't a BAD product, but it really isn't very useful, either. I find the dancers are fairly amusing for a while and the analog recorder makes a really easy way to record old tapes, but that's about it. Also, the recorder ONLY records in proprietary Micro$oft .wma format instead of offering a useful-for-editing format like .wav. Because of this, the only time I ever use it is when I am feeling lazy and I have it set my recording level for me.I would only recommend this product if:1. Like me, you can get it "Free after rebates" (don't forget about taxes and shipping). Don't even think about paying more than $5 (after taxes, etc) for it.2. You already know you like a certain feature (like the dancers)--don't get this hoping for something great because you will probably be disappointed3. You have a lot of extra space on your hard drive and4. You have a fast internet connection (Downloading dancers requires up to 20MB or more PER DANCER!) | 0negative

I thought, yes, I need a pez dispenser for my picks. A bit skeptical, but after using it, I'm really liking it. I haven't mounted it to a guitar, but instead, I'll likely rig up something to attach it to my guitar strap. | 1positive

I am using this amplifier to power speakers in a training room. It gives good sound and is plenty loud enough for my needs. | 1positive

My guitar stays in good shape using this humidifier. It is recommended by my luthier that has over 40 years of experience. | 1positive

For the price this is not a bad keyboard. Here are the two major problems I have with it:1) The feel is nothing like a real piano. The keys are springy and you have to apply a fair amount of pressure to hold a note.2) The instructions have a big sticker on them, stating that this keyboard is made of materials known to cause cancer and/or birth defects (including lead) and to "wash your hands after handling". How on earth did this manufacturer decide to use such materials with a device that is intended to be handled a lot, very possibly by children?It's going back... | 0negative

That's what this product is suppose to be, right? And so I was hoping that once I open it it would have all the things it list on Amazon and on the box. 1 guitar, 1 book, 1 tuner, 1 case, etc? Never mind that it's a flimsy box. Never mind the case is kind of thin. So what it takes some getting use to the electric tuner. I would have been perfectly prepared to accept that. Especially after reading the other reviews. I was prepared to give at least a 3 star review.So, it was really disappointing when the darn thing doesn't come with even 1 pick! It came with.....a hex key. Not even 3 hex keys. Just 1 darn hex. Not that it would have mattered if it were 3 hexes. Not like I could use it to pick the guitar strings. Or maybe I can? How would I know I'm a beginnger. That's why I got a beginner's set so I could just jump right in. But, no, now I need to go get a pick or two. Or learn pick-less. Which is possible, but why list it on the site and box if it's not included?And at this price, they should have made sure it was included. It just really is disappointing when kits don't include everything they should. | 0negative

I have one of these that is a little older and after two of the outlets stopped working decided to crack it open.1. These are not expensive switches or outlets. The blades inside the outlets can come loose. I have never had a switch stay on before so I'm not sure why that happens to others.2. The connections inside are made with blade style connectors. I have had the female portion come loose on most of these connections and can simply slip them off of the male sides. I used a pair of pliers and very light pressure on the curls of the female part to give more hold and this solved the problem for all but one outlet (blade won't stay in).I have not put this back in my DJ rack as I just don't trust it anymore (not for $3000+ of equipment). I am looking for a better built switched power distribution unit. Until then I will have to reach behind every component and turn it on separately.Also I got shorted on the power cord. Literally. It is only 3 ft instead of 6 ft. Never could figure out why. | 0negative

I work from home and am on a ton of phone calls. Most headsets are small and wireless, which is great but they sacrifice sound quality and comfort (think 90 minute calls) for convenience. I thought these would give me great sound and comfort at the price of being bulky and corded, which is fine for me.The reality is they will work with my droid ... kind of. Sound is great most the time, but occasionally it's super faint. Most of the time the mic works almost too well as I had a co-worker point out I should mute while making tea because it was audible - something my two bluetooth headsets never picked up. But sometimes the mic just doesn't work, or I'm so faint no one can understand me. Also the sound only plays in my left ear. I suspect the converter is mono and there may be a workaround for this but I haven't investigated yet.Overall the headset works fine about 90% of the time, but that's just not good enough so back they go. | 0negative

As an older guitarist (48) who has been playing 30+ years, its great to see so many metronome choices. What I really like about this unit is that you have the large dial and its easy to set tempos rather than scrolling through a menu on a LCD screen.Two ways in which this unit could be improved - volume control as other reviewers have mentioned, and I'd like to see more of these units with belt clips, so you could clip them to your belt, plug in the earphone and walk around and practice without being tied in one room or place - or have your electric guitar overwhelmed by the ticking if you are practicing unplugged. | 1positive

This guitar pick, when held properly, is slippery, does not fit your fingers correctly, and is easily nicked by guitar strings. The worst part about this is the nicking, because once it is nicked your stings can get caught in it and break. Don't worry, this was not some freak accident, it happened with almost every pick that came in this package.I understand that the pick is designed to be easier to hold, but "stubby" is not that great. "Textured" would have been much better.I would say that one pro is how solid it "feels", but because the guitar pick is easily blemished by electric and acoustic strings, it would be inappropriate to call this product "solid". | 0negative

This peg fits the standard holes of most sax stands. The peg itself is extremely sturdy (if a little heavy) and holds the soprano firmly on the stand. I strongly recommend it. | 1positive

This is a cheaply made cable, for too much money. When you get it, the MIDI IN/OUT jacks are glued together, wire to wire. This is all fine and dandy if you're using it for one keyboard (which since it's by Casio I guess the target audience would), but my keyboard and synth rack are on opposite sides of my workspace. You can rip the glue apart to seperate them but it makes the cables feel very flimsy.Connecting the cable to the Joystick port on my sound card would have been a lot easier if the connector had thumbscrews. Instead, it has mini-flathead screws.The MIDI OUT jack seems very flimsy. Every so often I have to check on it to make sure it's in all the way. This was quite frustrating as all my synths would be playing one minute, then nothing would be playing.Look for something better, or make it work. | 0negative

On a quest for tone, with hand-made Kendrick amps and a strat that took me 20 years to choose for the great sound, I picked up a couple monster cables just like these, except with straight-to-straight plugs. Rock solid cables, I never had any worries about breaks like you often get with bargain-basement cables. Was the tone better? Marginally I think. Between the amp, the guitar, the room, your hands and the cables, the cables seem to have the least effect. But I've had the cables for 5 years now, I'm not kind to my cables, and I still have them and use them. However, my personal opinion is that whatever cable in your setup connects to your guitar, don't use one of these. Like I said, they're rock solid, the feel is more brittle than flexible, and they don't do well for movement. Any hint at a twist of the cable and it's a snarl that you can't shake loose. Any tangle and you're on your hands and knees untangling it, because you can't shake them loose. I tell people, without much exaggeration, "two steps forward, two steps back, and the cable is a tangled mess". So when you're choosing your weapons, don't choose this one to plug into your guitar. For the rest of your signal path, go for it. They last forever. | 0negative

Title pretty much sums it up. This thing is not worth even $50. To start with, the plastic the case is made out of is thin and very flimsy. The rack rails are made of plastic, with "self-tapping" screws (i.e. you better not want to switch your gear around much because they will likely wear out and strip). Because they are made of plastic, the rails cannot hold anything with much weight, such as a heavy duty power amp or even a heavy duty drawer. I tried to mount my drawer on the very bottom, but the rails were not wide enough at that point without being forced and slightly bent in. Once I finally managed to jam it into place, it turned out the bottom lip bows up at that point, so the drawer would stop about 1" from closed. Same thing at the top: the top lip bowed down, and the rails were narrower than standard so none of my gear fit there.You couldn't PAY me to keep this thing and SKB should be ashamed for trying to sell it.Incidentally, I have an old SKB Gig Rig rolling rack, which is made of high impact molded plastic and has regular metal rails. It is actually a really solid piece of gear, and is what I was expecting this thing to match in terms of quality. Uh... no. | 0negative

Thank God they did this (and I DON'T mean Eric Clapton!). Cream was captured live on audio very well in 60's but the only live video is the execrable "Farewell Concert" (which you can totally forget about). This video captures the band in fine form...they are as good as they were in the 60's which is astonishing when you consider the passage of years. Jack Bruce drives Eric Clapton to levels we haven't seen since 1969 and it reminds us why he was referred to as God in his heydey. Cream plays virtually every song in their catalogue (even "Pressed Rat and Warthog"!) and, if that wasn't enough, they add a NEW Cream song to the canon, a superb "Stormy Monday" sung by Eric Claption. This is one of the best videos in my collection and I treasure owning it. I wish something more had come out of this one-off reunion but I'm very happy that they got this right! | 1positive

I bought the program about a week ago, and now know why one user described it(in a former review) "userunfriendly and Junk"Not only caused it system-problems on my PC but it is also the most confusing and unreliable music program which i have ever worked with. I could only guess, why it got 5 Stars on a other review. But after reading the Review several times again and again, i realized, "who" probably wrote the 5 Star review. | 0negative

It is really a good bag but could have been great if one of the side pockets could have been bigger so that i could carry my book(s) as well. Still very happy with the bag comfortable to carry, enough space in pockets to carry the accessories (except book(s)) and gives good protection. Really this is a good alto sax bag i would recommend to everybody. | 1positive

We bought the mirror ball for a playroom and it looks really good. The item came well packaged as well. We have had a few of the mirror squares fall off which is why I'm dropping it a star. | 1positive

for a guitar of this quality, one of epiphones best pieces of work, $529.95 is a great price to pay, and the EMG passive pickups give it a great tone. | 1positive

Nice case, but it does NOT fit the Warbeast with the "U" neck. The case model number for the "U" neck is the : BCIGC1When I had this issue, the seller was more than happy to accommodate me and swapped cases promptly. | 1positive

I would not recommend theses speaker as they only lasted 4 months. I made the mistake of not registering them within 30 days. (MY BAD) Lesson learned so now I have speakers that sound crackley and low volume for awhile then it clears up and sounds fine for a few minutes back and for with no random pattern. Iwas not overly impressed with the speakers even new. Back to my 8 year old speakers that came free with my old dell computer. Once again junk. | 0negative

Hello, I need to recant a bad review I gave this when I bought it some time ago. I'm not too smart and very cheap. I don't like buying batteries and the batteries I first placed into the device were old. To say the least, it worked terribly. So, dummy me, I put it on the shelf and forgot about it. Today I happened to run accross it and thought I'd give it another try. I put FRESH BATTERIES into it and it WORKED FINE.CON: It seems kind of cheap and flimsy, but I'm not too tough on things, so I'm hoping it will give me a few years of good use. Go ahead and buy it. | 1positive

The strings are nice. I dont know much things about how the quality of strings affects the sound but this set gives a good quality of sound. | 1positive

SImple works and is comfortable - need I say more about this - I have four now and they are great. | 1positive

I just put these on and my first response was "Wow"...These Elixirs have the smooth feel advertised & mentioned by other reviewers, so that your fingers just glide over them. and maybe it's because I haven't put on new strings in awhile, but when I first played these the sound was crisper & brighter than expected. I can't speak to the longevity of these strings, but they are unlike anything I've played before.Put it this way, I've purchased other bass strings from amazon, and they've all been adequate. But this is the first time I've felt the desire to write a review on bass strings!I very impressed with them and recommend. | 1positive

My mother lives in a small apartment and does some of her small clothes in the sink. This was just what she wanted and you made her very happy. She will be 100 in july so she remembered using a larger one back in those days. I would do business with this company again. | 1positive

Nice idea but not practical.The problem with this strap is that when you use it your arm has to hold the guitar against your chest or the guitar will fall foward.In order for you to play guitar your arm has to be free floating and this strap doesn't allow this.Also the strap goes around your neck as opposed to around your shoulder which is not a good thing,being that the weight of the guitar is around your neck. | 0negative

We bought this to add to our collection of instruments thinking that we should pay a little more for better quality. I am now looking at the $2 whistles for a replacement. This one does not work properly. A good 3/4 of the whistle does not produce the sliding tone and the little sound you can produce is too airy sounding. | 0negative

I really don't understand the title "soprano crow sounder"-- it really does not produce much of any type of sound. I purchased a large amount of these to be used in a classroom- I'll have to wait and see how they hold up. They are cheap and you get what you pay for. | 0negative

I mistakenly thought because the title of this page was Nero 6 Ultra, that I would only be offered that product. So, I was lured by the low prices of what I thought was the product I was looking for. I paid a little over six bucks (including shipping) for Nero 6 OEM. Now I've got two copies. My bad, but it is a mistake that is easy to make. So, be careful with your order.Anyone want Nero 6 OEM ... cheap? | 0negative

Not a good purchase. Was advertised as stereo and is mono. Too little of a thing to send back. Not happy though. | 0negative

It is inexpensive but is difficult to use anywhere with other noise..I used it for several years but it is only a backup now.. Nice part is that you can calibrate the tuning, although probably would not be used by most musicians.. Other than that I think money would be better spent on a headstock type tuner.. I would not recommend it. | 0negative

I use to store my picks on my shelf, i would drop them in the carpet, walk off with them, sometimes even swallow them... But This pickholder is Amazing! it has a sticky back that can stick to any surface! i stuck mine on the wall right behind my guitar, so anytime i pick up my guitar, BOOM, i got a pick. And everytime i put my guitar away, BOOM, my pick goes in the Ergo Pickholder. Its simple convenient and a must have for any picker!! | 1positive

Beautiful Guitar. Made a few adjustments to the action and set up but pretty great right out of the box. Beautiful full Gibson sound. I love the faded satin finish. Plays great. Pretty much my favorite guitar that I own. | 1positive

After a short time, this stuff shifts and floats. When removed, it leaves a sticky mess all over the fingerboard. Save yourself a bunch of headaches, as well as messy instruments and strings: use either electrical tape (comes in rainbow colors and is easily trimmed, stays put and doesn't leave residue) or go to the auto parts store and get narrow pinstriping tape. | 0negative

[I am writing this review as someone who owns several plastic Yamahas and also a nice wooden Moeck instrument, focused mostly on comparison.]I bought this recorder to replace an aging, cracking and worn plastic recorder of the same brand and model, but in the rosewood finish. The newer recorder I bought was shiny dark brown to match the three other sizes I have. I was quite surprised to see the difference! It may be that the finished recorders are slightly different, or a matter of individual variation (plastics are known to vary), but I suspect it is most likely Yamaha subtly updated their line. My older Yamaha had a more penetrating and interesting tone (and the wooden instrument of course in a different league entirely), but I really like the new instrument for its very mild upper register. Even hitting the highest F is quite effortless (that's overblowing into the *fourth* register in terms of physics!) and the volume is only somewhat greater than the center of the range. The breath required is quite small. All of the notes seem to be tuned identically between the two instruments and the notes and typical trill fingerings seem to be well in tune.This makes a good introduction to the instrument for those of you that do not play recorder, and for those of you with fine wooden instruments, this is a good practice instrument to give your best one a break to dry out between sessions. I really like the mild upper range in particular. I hope they are all uniformly like this!Compared to the other sizes only the Yamaha tenor has a better tone quality. That instrument certainly is delicious, particularly in the lower register. The upper register sounds strained. The tenor is very fine overall, but like all instrument families the lower an instrument is built, the less responsive it gets. The tenor is a more difficult instrument in general. And I can't stand the fact that the standard trill fingering between high d and e is very out of tune. | 1positive

It works but it's not amazing in terms of comfort. It has two holes on both ends so you need to find a way to strap it around the neck of the guitar. I used a leather shoe string and it works just fine! | 1positive

We've had this clip for about 8 months now and I find the screw part that connects where the microphone goes to the part that screws into the stand is loose and allows the microphone and clip to slide easily and not stay in position. We didn't pay a lot for this, so maybe it's just a matter of you get what you pay for it. | 0negative

I am a professional musician and music teacher with a graduate degree in Music. I have owned numerous synths over 3 decades and my Nord 2X is by far the best synth I have ever owned. If you are looking for a great synth for solo work, this is the one to get. | 1positive

I used them as soon as I got them. Moved around the kit very well. Made for a great sound as well. If you're a church drummer looking for a stick, I'd definitely suggest getting these. | 1positive

I wanted one of these for a while and finally got so tired of shuffling the piles of records from one corner of the house to the other that I took the plunge. I was all excited when I took it home but to my surprise, there is no autostart feature. The arm has to be put on the record manually. Even worse, at the end it does not return to the base. If one would leave the room, it may eventually scrape through the record. The mechanism to lift the arm does not lift it high enough to move it on the first track so I have to hold it up by hand. The slip cover for the turntable is just a piece of felt (the store display has a plastic one that looks like a real record player). All that (except the getting stuck at the end of the record) is almost acceptable. However. the turntable is not straight. It wobbles up and down several millimeters. I am not sure if this is the reason the needle skips on certain tracks or if the records have just been lying around for too long. When I pushed the counterweight all the way in, the record does play better but sometimes the head seems to scrape the record since it bounces up and down. I have tried two units thinking I was just had bad luck but I guess not. Very disappointing. Even the cheap record player I had as a kid was better! | 0negative

This dual channel wireless device is contently picking up static and interference. This device even in a open field picks up the most intense interference even with 50 ft. This device is also not very well shielded from other electrically devices, this lavalier system picks up the interference from the pulsing in-use light on my dslr during filming. In my opinion this is a terrible system especially if your sub is moving there arms a lot. | 0negative

About 5 years ago, I bought one of those and I fell in love.I searched for them every time I went to a guitar shop without luck until now.It's small and practical and it stays on even in the gig bag. It's a must. | 1positive

I probably should wait a little longer before I write the review. I may be able to offer a little more insight when I have had more time to digest the material(s) within the DVD.The DVD will definitely inspire any aspiring Hammond player. It is saturated with interesting technique and crystal clear examples of exceptional Hammond playing. Some of his work is hard to follow but this DVD is not necessarily for an entry level musician. The more you know about music the more you will get out of this DVD. | 1positive

I was very pleased with this product about 2months ago. But the the clamp part of the capo won't stay on so it doesn't hold the strings down. When I first got it it worked fine but after I used it for about two weeks it stopped working right. | 0negative

I guess I should not have expected too much for the price. It was good while it lasted. I have purchased cheap mikes, middle of the road and more expensive name brand models and I have yet to find one with staying power. Don't waste your money on this one; you will end up back where you started in less than 6 months. | 0negative

I purchased this after fiddling with my old violin strings (no pun intended) and not being able to get true key with it. After putting on this string I was instantly able to tune the E string and it sounded beautiful. I will be replacing all the strings on my violin with this brand. Very impressed. | 1positive

Pulled amp into over the air antenna and got no better reception on both HD and regular channels. Tried on two different tv's in two different areas of the house. I will try it on Cable signal and revise my comment. I would not waste the money if you are just using this on a regular antenna. | 0negative

Excellent product. Fits my Fender bass better than the Fender version of this same case. Much less bulky and heavy than the typical rectangular bass case. Makes it much easier to carry my bass guitar around.Thanks,Rick | 1positive

After reading the reviews, it is easy to see that I'm NOT the only one having all sorts of problems. Roxio "Easy" (LOL) CD/DVD Creator came bundled with my new TDK DVD burner. It has got to be the sorriest software I've ever attempted to install, with the exception of some freeware. It exposed hidden partitions, only partially installed, and I'm seeing the dreaded BSOD, telling me that there is a software or hardware conflict. Version 5 came with my computer, so I had to go back to using it. Also, ever since I TRIED to install version 6, ACDSee tries to act as Windows Explorer. I would advise any and everyone who is even thinking about purschasing this software NOT to. It's looking like I'm going to have to wipe my HD and start all over. | 0negative

Simple to use, clean-sounding device. Baggs'suse of efficient circuit design delivers a clear,transparent sound. This preamp doesn't color thesound much.The screws that attach the belt-clip to the outsideof the case are very short and apt to work lose.They also, on my unit, caused the device to buzzbecause they touched the metal on the inside. Somekind of grounding problem I guess. My unit maybe defective but I never returned it to Baggs ofcalled them to ask about it. Instead, I justremoved the screws and have used the unit parkedon a table or on an amp... a lousy solutionadmittedly, but at the time I was using this alot I was performing on a weekly basis and didn'twant to go without the unit while I returned itto Baggs. I was pessimistic about the belt-clipscrew buzzing being a fixable issue at the time.SO - it sounds great. It notch-filters feedbackadmirably, but seems to have this design flaw thatmade it inconvenient for me to use, even thoughI put up with it for a few years. | 1positive

this guitar is really nice sounds nice the strings on it are slightly to stretchy so you can here a string buzz some time but thats cheap to replace the pick ups are good and it stays in tune pretty good adventurliy i would replace the tuners and strap buttons and pickups to an enclosed pick up all in gold tone once done it would be perfect but as is its high quality and great and it arived on expected date | 1positive

I ordered this pedal thinking that it would be like a normal pedal would...you press it down, it sustains your notes. When I got it, it came in a box with no instructions at all...so, I plugged it in, and on my keyboard it showed that the pedal was in use. When I went to play notes, it sustained them-and when I pressed down the pedal, it didn't. I returned it, because I know I can get a better one elsewhere...I was just very shocked that Yamaha would be like that. Maybe it was a glitch with that one pedal. It is good for people who are lazy and want to have their notes sustain all the time without pressing anything... | 0negative

These guitar strings are exactly as advertised. They came within the timeline that was framed in the advertisement. I would recommend these strings to anyone who is a beginner (like me). Excelsior. (Did I spell that right...) Oh well, I did say I was a beginner. | 1positive

This cable was, I thought, exactly what I needed. The breakout wires are about 6 inches and just what I needed as I'm feeding these through a small hole in the wall. regular size audio cables would not have fit and would be too rigid ( for my arrangement )Anway, the problem is that the connectors are so cheaply made that they almost fall off! Just not a good solid connection. I tried squeezing the rings but they are just so thin that it hardly helped. I'm wondering how the signal pin is making contact?You've all seen the quality of those throw in RCA cables you get when you buy a cheap DVD player etc. Well those are 100% better than these cables. Made in China says it all..........Don't buy !!! | 0negative

Features:Tuners are the green keys and I love them. Both LPs and my ES have them. The only disadvantage to the faded finish is that you can plainly see the one piece that runs from the neck down to the strap button instead of being blended into the two side pieces. Frets are large, well finished, but very large.Quality:Depends on how picky you are. The action was very high out of the box. The bridge pickup was set just as high. After lowering both the guitar was set. No need for anyone to setup the instrument. Intonation was perfect as was fretting. Finish? It is smoothed and pore filled mahogany. I worry less about this guitar than any of my others. It is robustly made - made for playing. This will last as long if not longer than any of my others including the oldest being the 1969 ES 345.Value:I paid $579 shipping included. Value? A Gibson for under $600 and it's not a crappy import? I am loathe to give anything a "10" but this guitar is very close.Desirability:Ever since Woodstock when I saw the Dead, the Who and Santana all sporting SGs, I knew I had to have one.Sound:How do two humbuckers sound? Like a Gibson. This guitar sounds as good as any other Gibson I have played or heard. I do notice the pickups being any "hotter" because of the lack of covers. I play Fusion - loud jazz. This guitar is more versatile than my ES 345 TD, varitone and all. I play though a Fender amp and a Marshall. They both compliment the humbuckers beautifully.Ease of Use:The neck is amazingly fast - I don't think I want another nitrocellulose neck again. And I find myself constantly going past the last fret - access is that easy. Rolloff on the tone controls is fairly linear. Weight distribution is fine - the neck is not too heavy for the body. Learning curve? Sure - playing the guitar is nothing BUT a huge learning curve ;) Very easy to get started on this guitar.Support:No opinion yet.Overall:I have nothing but high praise for this guitar. I thought I would be disappointed with the "finish." I am not. I heard "stories" about frets not being dressed properly or strap buttons being less than average, or tuners not holding pitch. None of that was true. | 1positive

When I bought the Mbox2 it all appeared great while researching, easy recording, free plug ins, you can do this that, many tracks. If you have an average up to date computer like mine you might have much problems with drivers, screen freezes, and lots of unwanted noises and clips. Then the i-lock system chore, everything is a chore with this program, do not expect it to be fun, this item caused me more stress than anything I ever bought, and do not expect any help, or care from the customer service of Digidesign, once you open it you cannot return it to the store either because it's considered opened software. Don;t risk your money on this garbage. It's all hype and sales talk. | 0negative

Is this thing a joke? I can't believe it's gotten so many good reviews. First off, there were no instructions. I figured it out, but I don't know what kind of disassembled product doesn't come with instructions. Second, the rubber strap things for keeping your guitar neck in place - they are INCREDIBLY hard to get on or off. I can't imagine anyone using this on stage as you're going to take 15 seconds just trying to get a guitar in or out while trying not to knock the entire thing over while prying the strap on or off. It's ridiculous. Second, I'll probably never actually get that far as the top piecing with those three holders WILL NOT EVEN ATTACH to the neck of the stand. The little metal tube inside of it does not fit over the neck. The only reason this worthless POS wouldn't be returned is if I can find an easy replacement for the rubber straps as well as a way to force that part on to the neck. I would NOT recommend this product to ANYone...except for musicians I hate. | 0negative

It works really well. The only reason I give it a 4 star is because if you have a classical guitar with wider neck you have to check and make sure that it is on completely because the high E string has a tendency to not go in on the first try. Also, it's a great buy because if you buy this capo it doubles as a cut capo. Just flip it over and have the clear protection side on the strings. It covers up strings 3-5 perfectly. Great buy. | 1positive

Strong enough to support even more weight than specified. Besides, beautiful to see, nothing in common with those X-shaped stands. Simply perfect. | 1positive

This drum is sweet. It looks amazing coming out of the box, a classic, beautiful design. I swapped the stock Weather Master heads for an Emperor Coated/ Clear Ambassador Reso. Also swapped stock snares for 42-strand wires. No complaints about sound from this beauty.My only complaint to date is the strainer. The standard P-85 strainer would often get snagged when moving the snares from off to on. This sucks big time when you're in the middle of a song, fighting with the strainer to co-operate. I got desperate and almost snapped the arm off it once. This may have been a problem on my end, seating it incorrectly or something. I'll soon swap to a P-86 strainer.Also, watch out for fingerprints on this! The chrome looks awesome when it's clean, however fingerprints really stand out.. and drive me mad. Minor detail but thought it was worth mentioning.Overall, very good drum. If mine got stolen or destroyed in a fire I would buy another. | 1positive

I don't have a cable. I paired this amplifier with DB4 antenna, but no gain in signal at all. It could be because I'm too far from the nearest stations (about 28 miles) and/or the airport within two miles. I think I'm just gonna get the cable. :( | 0negative

I purchased this violin for my daughter to start orchestra.My local music store showed me what to look for in a quality violin,like having the name inside the violin itself and a serial number which this one did. The satin finish is perfect for hiding finger prints. This violin is every bit just as nice as the $400.00 to $500.00 dollar violins I was looking at in the music store. It came with everything to get started including a chin rest and an extra bow. My daughter has played it in orchestra for about a month and no problems. | 1positive

Product was defective when received. There is an adjustment screw for the stand height that fits into a nut that is welded on the bottom half of stand. The nut was too big, (or adjustment screw too small), rendering the stand useless. Giving "On Stage Stands" the benefit of the doubt, I called them up to be promptly hung up on and busy signals on repeat attempts. (Hung up on before even explaining the problem. Seemed like one person, one phone line operation and as soon as I gave the model number the phone went dead) Don't make the mistake of ordering this "companies" products, fool me once..... Amazon great as always with returns. | 0negative

Cream live in 2005 has to be, even to the most jaded fan of Cream or Clapton in particular,a revelation.The playing on this far exceeds anything one could hope for or expect.The way in which they play together now is far more enjoyable to listen to,than the way in which they use to jam in their heyday.They actually listen to each other and play off of each other in a way that leaves todays jam bands looking pretty amatuer.The emotion and timing Clapton uses in his solos combined with the fluid bass playing by Bruce and the taste of the drum fills by Baker make it hard to pick out just a few moments as highlights.Everyone that plays an instrument, especially guitar players, should own this,not only is it enjoyable as a concert but there is alot to learn from it on a musical level.Take it all in and enjoy,simply spectacular. | 1positive

I purchased this Clarinet for my child, as an alternative to the school rental Clarinet. I wasn't thrilled with paying $50 a month for a rental...and really didn't want to buy an $800 dollar Clarinet for a child that wasn't sure if he really wanted to play. I played and learned both instruments with my child, as extra incentive to help him stay interested.The produced arrive on time, and the build quality looked very similar to the more expensive rental. The sound quality was something else entirely.Even using the same reeds, this instrument needed more effort in order to achieve the same level of play. I was never quite as happy with the sound of this instrument as I was with the rental. For an 8 year old in beginning band, I decided that cheaper was still the way to go...or I probably would have returned the item. I really can't recommend this product. | 0negative

I know singers rave about the Shure SM 58 but this product really blows. I mean this thing sucks the big one folks. I'm not sure if I got a defective product, but there was an inescapable hiss in every single of my recordings no matter what I did to the setting or the computers volume level. Also, the gain dial of my device looked defective and if I dialed it down just a little bit I would lose an incredible amount of feedback.Maybe this is just not a good product to use on Windows (I have Vista 64-bit), or maybe this device was just defective, but whatever the case I am extremely disappointed. | 0negative

this item is so easy to carry and very helpful. I enjoy using it for all my music sheets, specially I don't have to put my music sheets on the bed or on the table anymore when I practice. | 1positive

Bought this for my daugher thats been wanting to take guitar lessons, well that won't be happening with this guitar. It is cheap garbage,five minutes after taking it out of the box one of the strings snapped. It is not the same color pink that showed in the picture it was much darker and had a ugly sticker on it that was not in the picture and that was peeling off. Scratches and imperfections all thru the paint. Won't hold a tune. So disapointed with this purchase. If your looking for more then a toy don't buy this guitar. I wish I would have read all the reviews before purchasing. | 0negative

I bought this product to play on Rock Band 3. Now, I'm not a real drummer, so I don't use this for my full potential. However, after about 30 minutes of playing on Expert, one of the legs bent and I fell over. I attempted to force the bent leg into place, and continued playing. After about 15 minutes of playing, it bent again. This is not a quality product. | 0negative

This amp is amazing. I've had it a few weeks now and still really haven't used all of the settings. It has great clean sounds and distortion sounds. The artist presets and song presets are fun. Overall, you couldn't ask for a better amp in my opinion. I do recommend opting for the $99 foot pedal to go with it. It will make a world of difference. | 1positive

This Violin needs a lot of upgrades in order for it to make a sound close to music.There is no value for a student to practice on a squeaking instrument - at the minimum you will need to change all the strings - $28-$48, you will need to install a new bridge ~$40 and a new bow $60-100 ..And then there will be all sort of other problems the Pegs will slip forever and the sound will never be satisfactory..However there are 2 advantages - the color is `cool' ...and if some kid is stepping on it during a school concert you will not suffer a heart attack.. | 0negative

My daughter had a standard neck strap that becomes quite uncomfortable after playing for a while. This harness is much more comfortable and fairly easy to use once you get used to it. | 1positive

Amazon shows 2 cases in the image. You only get one folks! I guess someone marketed it that way to get a sale from a non-attentive shopper such as myself. This review is solely on the deceptive advertising however to be fair I do think Amazon is the best on the net. Moral - pay attention to scams like this. | 0negative

The turntables are great for the beginner DJ and are good enough to start scratching and practicing beat juggling. If you get good with these you will be incredible on some better decks. The mixer was not good at all really but it works and you can always upgrade with the money you saved by buying this pack in the first place. | 1positive

The case is a nice case but it ABSOLUTELY does not fit the applause tenor ukulele. It is misrepresented as a Ovation Applause Tenor Ukulele/Mandolin case for the Tenor Ovation uke. Additionally contributing to the problem is that the dimensions for the uke and the case are backwards. The uke is a little longer than 29 inches and the case is about 27.5 inches.When they say customers buy the uke and the case together those customers are buying the case for something else. If they are buying it for a Tenor Ovation Applause Ukulele the uke will STICK OUT OF THE BAG by +1.5 inches (And yes I am a bit annoyed.)I'm returning the case and need to find a suitable one for the Tenor uke still. I wish it fit cause it is well padded and has a convenient shoulder strap. | 0negative

The sound is pretty clear, not tinny/cheap-sounding. It would be nice if the knob had a little longer string on it though. | 1positive
