This DIY Music Box features a punch-hole mechanism which will accept any punched paper ‘score’. So in theory you could compose a masterpiece using this instrument and go on to win fame and fortune on some naff reality show on Fox Television. However we all know that’s not likely to happen, don’t we? Especially since you can’t play sharps and flats with this puppy. Ah well, worth a dream. £15.99/$31.98.
This is the ‘big brother’ version of the Music Box Set. It has 20 notes instead of 15, so it can play 2.5 octaves. As a music box, it is quite a bit bigger, at 14.5 x 7 x 2.75cm high. Again, like the smaller music box, it just plays the white notes, and does not play sharps or flats. Included is the Music Box, one pre-punched strip which plays Romeo and Juliet, 2 blank strips, and a hole punch, so that you can create your own tunes! The strips are 66 x 7cm. We can also supply more blank strips.
Personally I like the durable, shockproof, and recyclable storage medium (paper to you and me).
