Musical Instrument

I shot this for the Macro Mondays group theme of Musical Instruments: 23/05/2011.

 

This wonderful little electronic device is called a Stylophone! It was invented in the late sixties and produced until the mid seventies! The, err, synthesizer, was promoted by no other than Rolf Harris, who released a number of play along records, and appeared in commercials advocating its use.

 

I'm not sure the noise it produces can be called music, but as you can see below from the operating instructions, it claims to be the greatest little instrument of the century!

 

Who am I to disagree? :)
