Xaphoon

Hey everyone,

Recently I got a gift card for Amazon for my birthday, and I ran across a "Xaphoon." It was marked for $85, but it's on sale for $35, should I get it? It would add to my collection of instruments, plus I would love to show it off to my friends.

But does anyone know anything about the Xaphoon-- more particularly, this specific model?

Thanks,

Mathieu

$35? Cool, that's about half it's true worth, if it's a real xaphoon and not some cheap imitation. I've never played one, but I've heard that they're worth it.

btw, if you get it, make sure there's a refund policy available. It's easy to get bad eggs with instruments manufactured like these, if you know what I mean.
