There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
They are absolutely right. I got this kind of as a joke for my partner's birthday, but when he plugged it into the Fender guitar amp and started switching through all the presets I knew I would be using it for realsies on industrial music.
The settings that work best with this are surf reverb, heavy metal distortion, space verb, and delay. But you can get a kazoo where you can swap out the membrane to something less buzzy such as a piece of newsprint and get a harmonica and saxophone sound. (see YouTube for instructions.)
It's hilarious and so much freaking fun. Do it. Do it. You won't regret it.
Any time you feel down, break this guy out and it'll have you laughing your face off in no time. Got high? Hum a long tone drenched in reverb. Got annoying guests staying for the holidays? Wake em up heh. And this is totally the perfect gift for your sibling's kids.
One issue I had: I ordered this twice from Kazoobie and both times they shipped the wrong, different item; a big, vuvuzela-looking thing. There might be something wrong with their order numbering system but they are fast to take wrong orders back.
Cons:
-Is it practical?
No.
-Is it stupid?
100%
-Is it a complete waste of money that my significant other will surely chew me out for?
Definitely.
Pros:
-Is it worth the $20?
I’d pay $200 for this thing after using it.
-Is it a good gift to any child of those in-laws you kinda don’t like?
Oh you better believe it.
-Is it the most fun I’ve ever had playing a freakin’ kazoo?
You’re gosh darn right it is.
10/10 would recommend.
A. It means you can pretty easily replace the kazoo if you are the specific level of kazoo player who actually owns more than one.
B. It also means that, being a microphone, it will pickup anything else around it! While this isn’t necessarily a bad thing it can lead to some rather interesting effects when your audio tech doesn’t mute the thing and you’ve set it on stage next to your cajon box!
Anyway, enjoy it. It’s a really fun toy to have!
