Wow a seller of a plastic didjeridu who tells you what the didjeridu is made of rather than vague references like, "durable materials." A little truth in advertising goes a long ways! This is a remarkable package for the price. You get a carry bag (pretty attractive one at that) and a full CD with Video. And the learning material is pretty inclusive, enough so to keep you learning well past the initial huffs and puffs!

This is great value for the beginning player. It is made of heavy plastic, has a comfortable rubber mouth piece and is nicely decorated. The tone is good. It comes with fabric cover, cd and instructions.

I bought this gift for my grandson when he was studying Australia. It was a big success. He is having a great time learning to play it. Now several classmates want to order one. Good quality for the price. Good instrument for a beginner.

I guess the title pretty much lays it out. This is an excellent beginner's Didgeridoo, especially for the price. There are two things to be wary of though.

1. Not all will sold will look like the picture. As in at least one other review, they all look different, so you really shouldn't just expect that it will look like this one. Mine for example, looks the same as the Didge pictured here (as far as I could tell), though the carrying bag is a bit different. It is a striking tie-dyed blue. Still, it seems any design they put out is stunningly beautiful.

2. Now to the mild criticism. The video lessons on the disc/ it's audio tracks are designed to work as a "website" and there's a link on it to start which sets it up on the web. All the lessons are informative and worth wile, but there are some problems with them. The videos often break off toward the end and have some skips in them. I think I remember the audio having some minor slip-ups too. Still, it can't be emphasized enough that these are minor slip ups. The audio and video still brings powerful, lessons which make it possible for any willing person to learn this great instrument. Also, you don't need to use it as a website! You can just convert the files and listen/ watch it on your IPod or just on your computer. Itunes seems to automatically convert the audio files and you can get a free video converter on Cnet.com where they spyware test it. I used the "any video converter." It worked alright.

That stuff I wrote down in the #2 point was close to getting me to take a star off, so like 4/5 instead of 5/5. My reason to do this would be that it was annoying to have to deal with these very small problems. Though, the positives so out weigh the negatives that it deserves a 5/5 none the less.

Also, it's really easy to clean.

I'm still at the early stages but it's soooo great. :) I just learned how to successfully drone on the didge.

This is without doubt one of the coolest things I have ever bought! It may not be a didge made out of wood, but it's still more than worth the price. Plus, pretty much everything you need to know about playing the didge is free on youtube, and that's in addition to the paper they give you on how to play, which is also very helpful!

This is my first didgeridoo. I've only had it a few hours and haven't set it down yet. I got the drone tone down, but the circular breathing is a little difficult. It sounds awesome and its easy to manipulate the sound. The bag it came with is very nice. I am very pleased with this purchase, which arrived two days after I placed the order. Excellent product, excellent service!!

I love this didgeridoo. I was looking for an inexpensive beginner didgeridoo to learn to play and practice circular breathing. This is just what I was looking for. It makes a marvelous sound and is a lot of fun to play. It is made of a durable plastic (not thin flimsy plastic like some other didgeridoos I have seen). It even comes with an attractive bag, CD, and instructions. I shopped around a bit and for a beginner didgeridoo and this was the best value for the money. I was not disappointed and several months since my purchase I am still playing it almost every day.

This was a very good didgeridoo for my first one, i personally managed to play it within minutes of trying and have become very good at it. i would definatly recommend this for a first timer because it will let you see if you have the niche without paying a ton of cash. sweet case to ! .

The product is everything I expected. Came when they promised and packaged well. My only problem is the rubber mouth piece is to small. Because it doesn't fit the whole way down it keeps coming off. I thought it was missing when I first opened it because it wasn't on the Didgeridoo. Each time I take it out of the cloth bag it comes off.

This was a gift for my adult son. It was beautifully painted and arrived in safe packaging. He absolutely loved it! A wonderfully unique gift!Didgeridoo Store Ultimate Didgeridoo Package 1.5 Great company to buy from! Thanks, Amazon.
