The Original Pocket Synthesizer
Iconic gadgets do not come along every day, but the Stylophone is a household name in the music world, renowned for its super-fun stylus design, compact form, and unique retro sound. Used by renowned artists such as David Bowie and The White Stripes, this musical gizmo is simply irresistible - once you pick it up, you won't want to put it back down.
Easy to Play The Stylophone is played by tapping and sliding the connected stylus along the touch-sensitive metal surface. Each segment on the surface plays a different note, much like the keys on a piano. But unlike the piano, it is so simple to play that anyone can have a go, making it perfect for beginners.
Portable and Battery-Powered The Stylophone earned the nickname 'pocket synthesizer' for a reason - at less than 12cm wide, it will fit right in your coat pocket, rucksack, or handbag. Moreover, it runs on 3 x AA batteries and features a built-in speaker and headphone socket, allowing you to play it anywhere you go.
Original Analog Sound The latest Stylophone retains the same quirky vintage analog sound as the original, first released in the 1960s. You can switch between 3 sound modes and make the sound wobble with the vibrato switch, perfect for creating classic synth and bass sounds.
Learn Your Favourite Songs Tuning the Stylophone is easy with the tuning wheel on the back. Once it's in tune, you can effortlessly play along with your favourite songs, making it a versatile and entertaining musical instrument.
Key Features: - Compact, battery-powered synthesizer - Unique and simple stylus design - Original analog synth and bass sounds with multiple sound modes - Built-in speaker for playing on the go, with a headphone socket for quiet practice - Vibrato switch and volume control - Tuning control and tone switch - On/off switch
In 1969, the legendary David Bowie used the Stylophone to create his iconic track 'Space Oddity', recognizing the instrument's potential for its unusual, space-age buzzy sound that suited the song perfectly. Now, you can own a recreation of this 1967 classic, with 3 octaves and an optional vibrato effect. The tuning knob on the bottom allows you to tune the Stylophone or create pitch-bend effects, while the built-in speaker with volume control and optional headphone jack offer versatile playing options. The line out (3.5mm) further expands the Stylophone's capabilities, making it a must-have for any music enthusiast or collector of iconic retro gadgets.
