Amazing Fun for Kids - Parents, get earplugs

My 11 y.o. daughter wanted this for Xmas. She absolutely loves it and it is cute too. But, parents, beware: The sound is so annoying, it may drive you crazy! The sound it produces is truly annoying to me. However, it is very well made and my daughter is thrilled with it.

Awesome instrument for musicians-

Got it and I love it! The sound truely is unique! However, this will take some time and getting used to. If you’re a musician, you could understand this is just part of the process. I would not recommend the delux unless you are a musician whom plans on playing it often- There aren’t any frets or anything indicating the notes on the instrument for any octave. However, you could use stickers as I have seen some do. Overall, I enjoy the heck out of this guy and I even plugged it up to my amp and ran some effects through it making it sound even better! Keep in mind, The sound alone is not very loud unless you plug it up to something.

its SO CUTE and its very big and fun to play

I was inspired to get this by Mklachu and Nelsontyc on YouTube and I must say, its SO CUTE and its very big and fun to play! I find this much easier to play with than the normal size Otamatone. Its my favorite toy I have ever had and it was very much well worth the price! I personally treat it like a real instrument and treat it with love and care. Its hilarious to play it around others and they seem to have fun with it as well. It can be difficult to play if you're not already a violinist or a guitarist but it gets easier the more you practice and put loads of time into it. I just ADORE the black color, its absolutely beautiful! The Otamatone Deluxe is truly a masterpiece!

Otamamazing!

Funny toy that seems to have no end of the distractions it has given me. All my friends hate it, but at the same time they laugh whenever they hear it. Great instrument to play with at parties, get-togethers, and things places that aren't formal. It has been nicknamed by one of my friends, "The Screaming Music Note." All around great item. I highly recommend for users that can tolerate humour!

Absolutely stupid, but amazing

This is one of the stupidest things I've ever bought online, and I absolutely do NOT regret it. These things are practically the modern-day recorder, and they're absolutely delightful. I've also found it's extremely fun to annoy people with this. The only thing I still don't get about it is the DC 5V jack - why does it have one? Is it there in case you use rechargeable batteries, or...? A bit useless if not. But still, not a big deal. To anyone who has just bought one and hasn't gotten it or opened it yet, use a coin to open the battery compartment. That confused me, too.

Charming little instrument!

Bought this as a gift for my brother and it was a such a hit! It's now sitting proudly on the bar counter in his basement lounge, waiting to charm the next person who asks, "What is that!?". The instrument came packaged nicely and is exactly as described in the listing. It plays well on it's own battery power, and sounds especially lovely when plugged into an amplifier. There aren't any frets along the neck like there are with guitars, so the best players are those with somewhat of an ear for music. However, I've heard some fantastic solo's and stirring renditions of love songs by totally tone deaf players, as well. Overall, this instrument is pure fun and really cool and quirky addition to any home.

Entertaining

One day when I had a friend over, I walked out of my room dramatically playing the Imperial March on the Otamatone. They were shocked, but not as much as I was when I realized they had never heard Darth Vader's theme in their entire life. But that's beside the point. It doesn't seem like it, but the deluxe version of the Otamatone is more than a toy; it's an actual, professional instrument. It can be difficult sometimes to play the exact note that you want, but you actually can produce specific notes on this. In case you're debating between the regular and the deluxe, having the three different octaves and the volume control are definitely good reasons to buy the deluxe. It's quiet enough to play at night without disturbing anyone, yet it can get fairly loud as well. Truly the most entertaining instrument that I've had the pleasure of playing. I was also impressed by the fact that I received it in less than 48 hours from the time I purchased it, since the seller I bought it from was only a few cities away from me. I don't know if that's common with every seller, though.

The Cutest Instrument You'll Ever Use!

This item was well loved by many people, both musically inclined and non-inclined. For those worrying about being unable to play it due to poor memory skills/pitch recognition, you can go through and find each note using a simple electronic tuner, and then mark them with regular store sticky dots. I found this was helpful for me as a beginner, as the sliding up and down takes some getting used to. Besides the fact that it's a functioning instrument, it's adorable, and it was well worth the money I paid for it :) (Also, shipping only took about a week. Props to HAMEE for getting me this item so quickly, as I was very excited about it!

He likes it

I got this for my kid and it's hilarious. Unfortunately the first one was defective but they replaced it without any problems. Replacement works great and my kid enjoys it

and instantly fell in love with it

THIS THING IS MASSIVE HAHAHAHA I recently got the original edition as a birthday gift, and instantly fell in love with it. It is tiny and adorable and fun to mess around with, but then I saw that theres this beast, and I was just like "well if I want to be the very best at annoyance with odd instruments, then I gotta have this" The package took in all four days from ordering it to arrive, and I was surprised by how well packaged it was. There was no way this could be damaged unless it was tossed from the empire state building, and all the objects it could hit in the way down. And size? Dang this thing is huge. I was actually not expecting it to be this thing, but its the size at which I can wear it like a damn saxophone. A beautifully annoying saxophone that belongs in an episode of Spongebob. It hits all the notes perfectly, and has a much better volume slider than its younger version, not to mention an aux jack. Now that, that is going to allow for me to be the true demon of Odd Instrumental Annoyance For the price I've paid, I feel I definitely got my money's worth.
