The Stylophone is back and better than ever!  40 years ago the iconic Stylophone was the must have gadget and all those years on, it still is and is now new and improved.

Simply put, the Stylophone by Dubreq is an electronic pocket organ that enables the user to create music by tapping and dragging a stylus across a metallic surface; moving the stylus around the metal surface will alter the pitch of the note sounding from the internal speaker.

The re-released Styophone now has a headphones output, allowing users to experiment and create music without compromising the sanity of those in the close vicinity. It also has an audio input, which enables the user to connect and play an MP3 player (or other audio device) and jam along with their favourite tracks. Don’t be fooled by its simplistic appearance–the Stylophone is not to be underestimated.

In fact it’s been used by the likes of David Bowie in “Space Oddity” and also made an appearance on Doctor Who, as well as being advertised by Rolf Harris. It doesn’t get more retro than the Stylophone.
