5.0 out of 5 stars Don't forget to order the A/C adapter!, November 20, 2008

Love the QChord! Here's a tip. QChord runs great on batteries, but you'll also want an A/C adapter to conserve batteries. You should only use an A/C adapter that meets specifications, or risk possible damage to your QChord. This is because the QChord uses reverse polarity adapters; that is, the center pole is negative and the outer sleeve is positive.

The correct specially designed power adapter is available on Amazon as Item B0002DVCBQ; model number is QCA. Or, you can order the QChord and A/C adapter together as a package, Amazon Item B0002EB5OE. Or, you can find an A/C adapter at your local electronics store; see the specifications on the FAQ page at qchord.net.

5.0 out of 5 stars its like having an old school organ with the drum machine, in your lab, March 20, 2009

alright, this is where novices, snobs, pop fans and hipsters can all get along. by itself its a really fun toy, and with midi through keyboards and effects processor(KP3), you sound like wesley willis in casio heaven. im impressed the guys at suziki always trip me out with their inventions, but this time its something other worldly, and its affordable. just got it today and already burned a 18min disc of craziness, and listening to it now, i see its potential, simple is always better. a great instrument for young people, and even adults who want to play music that sounds good fast, the more you play with it, the more you learn about chords and chord progression, so you learn and you have fun, instantly. never goes out of tune, and their is a yahoo group that has been around for years, where qchord players meet and discus different techniques, or help out begginers.. it has one hundred different settings, from fretless bass to muted trumpet) the old school drum bank is really cool, and of course you can control the volume and tempo(march, waltz, jazz etc.) and with midi it can go even further,
also, i got mine through musicains friend on a scratch and dented sale for 160$ it took some timne but i checked everyday till i could afford it, get it and have fun!

5.0 out of 5 stars Just What I Was Looking For!, November 27, 2009

Bought my Q-Chord here used. I paid a little more because it came with an adapter and a few cartridges. The instrument itself is great. I used to play keyboards with a band, and took music lessons as a child so I know a little about reading music and progressions and so forth, but you don't have to know anything to get started and play recognizable enjoyable music right out of the box. The instruction book assumes you know nothing and tells you how to get started. The more you play around with it the better you get.
The cartridges have 8 to 10 songs on them and they allow you to play full songs with bass, drums, and rythm already set so all you have to do is strum the plate.
One of my grand daughters birthday was the other day and I brought my Q Chord and played some favorite songs and her eyes just lit up. She's only 5 and loves to dance.
Just for fun, I went busking the other day and made $21 in 3 hours for having fun. I just might make that a habit.
