Professional Quality?!! Where are all these "professional" players to be found? Session didgeridooists? Making a salary plus scale? Comon!
"I'm the First Principal Didgeridooist for the Santa Cruz Drum Circle and Stoner Consort, and ONLY a fine professional quality didgeridoo will meet my exacting performance requirements"
I think a $5 length of PVC pipe could do the same thing!
I also really enjoy that it's noted to be in the key of 'F'. Lest you mistakenly buy this thinking you might perform Baked Bob Starflower's "Double Concerto for Didgeridoo and Djembe in A-major" only to find that horror of horrors, your didgeridoo is a in the wrong key!!!
Can the didgeridoo even play a natural harmonic series?
