coming from a musician’s point of view, or frustrated musician, i think this will probably make life better for budding musicians who plans to own a whole lot of instruments. if you get a high end fender guitar and a zildjan drum set, it will net you the same amount as the eingenharp alpha. yes, instruments cost that much. but given that we live in pinas, that price will still be too steep even for pro musicians.

as for mastery, i think the experience won’t be the same as, say, mastering the guitar. and i think mas mageenjoy dito yung mga mahilig maglaro with their music.

still, this would be a nice toy for musicians and music lovers alike, that is if you can afford the hefty price tag.

** sorry sa long post.

It’s like social media karma: the more you give,
the more you get back. If you don’t initiate and continue the conversation or dialog with your existing customers and future customers, your
business won’t thrive within the social network. I think most of people’s blog sites have a banner of
twiends.
