Unprofitable Instruments of the Internet

Posted by Seaman Jay on July 19, 2011 at 11:58am in Performances, How to Play, Lessons, Concerts

Just "stumbled upon" the Unprofitable Instruments page. Lots of ideas to steal^H^H^H^H^Huse in smaller and bigger projects...

BTW: I created the discussion because there was apparently no place for dropping links to strange, interesting, silly or plain stupid instrument designs found on "da Net".

The title of the thread may be a bit misleading, with the proud prices they should really be profitable.

  Somehow, against all odds, they managed to live out a rich and fulfilling life. Playing
  
  with other instruments, however, was always a source of much embarrassment...
