Awesome
Its really cool. I've never played a didgeridoo but I play tuba for the school band. This was really easy to play and it sounds great. They even give you extra beeswax. 5/5

Fun for learning at low cost
I am brand new to the didgeridoo and am enjoying learning on this. I have had it for less than a week and am surprised at how easy it is to learn with just a little time spent on it each day. Mine arrived intact, no broken pieces or cracks. I believe it is plastic ("polymer") made to look like old wood. Mine included the extra beeswax mouth piece that I used to make the opening for my mouth smaller. The beeswax does have a smokey smell which is common with unfiltered, unrefined beeswax (because smoke is used to calm bees when working on hives - beeswax smells smokey until it is filtered and refined). If you want beeswax without smell for a mouthpiece, look for a cosmetic grade beeswax (that you can also use to make your own lip balms and sunscreens).I'm giving this a 5 star rating as it is inexpensive; looks okay, like aged wood (I might paint some designs on mine); works fine for learning some basic techniques; sounds good as far as I can tell; and it is fun to play around with. I don't have anything to compare it to. If I continue to like it and keep playing, I will likely replace this with something better (higher quality and more expensive, real wood maybe) in the future and keep this one around for guests who want to give it a try.

Great Learning Didg!
I've always wanted to learn to play a didgeridoo... I've known the mechanics of playing for over 12 years but never got around to making / buying one to practice circular breathing.For my birthday this year I finally decided I wanted to get a didj but was afraid of getting an expensive one and later finding that I couldn't get the circular breathing down - then I found this didgeridoo.The one I received seems to be keyed to C#. The beeswax mouthpiece is already formed, although you may need to adjust the size to your own personal preferences.It took me 3 days of solid practice before I got circular breathing down. Now it's like second nature...This didj has decent back pressure and a nice sound once you get used to it. Ofcourse, I can't really compare it to any other, so I may be totally wrong. But it WAS good enough for me to learn on which is exactly what I hoped for. If a better quality didj is even better / easier to play on... that will be a bonus!This is a great (cheap) didgeridoo to pick up if you're interested in learning but don't want to spend too much money.Now that I know I can play atleast the basic drone, I'm looking to get a better didgeridoo.

Don't try too hard RELAX Get a good seal & let go easy.
It took a few minutes of flubbing around a bit, but I think I started to get it. Unfortunately my neighbors car alarms got it too 🥲Pets are curious about it, from a distance. Very bassy. I like this. I think I found my new favorite instrument.

Nice buzz
I can't really compare the ease of play for this didge with other didgeridoos since it's the first one I've played, but it seems to have a strong vibrant drone and plenty of volume. My ten year old daughter even got a nice resonant sound out of it on her first try. It amplifies actual pitches too if you hum a pitch-bending note into it while playing, makes this intense throbbing sound when I get it right. I don't know if all didgeridoos get that effect or not, I was just experimenting and found it. My daughter got this trippy water drop sound too by patting the mouth piece with the palm of her hand...I'm gonna have fun with this thing.I'm not getting very much in the way of the iconic overtones that give the didgeridoo it's really distinctive sound, but that's probably because I'm not getting the right buzz yet...I mean with my lips, my head gets plenty floaty after a good 10-15 minutes...did I just write that? I will keep working on my technique, it's probably me. But really even just a nice rhythmic drone on this baby is a fantastic object of attention for meditation. A nice relaxing way to sit in dim light and exercise the diaphragm and go inward.The beeswax mouthpiece is quite comfortable. The aesthetic appeal is nice, kinda rustic looking; it passes for real wood unless you examine it up close. The weight of this composite material is light, and it'd tough; I dropped it already and there was not even a scratch.This thing is tall, 5' or thereabouts, so if you want a compact didge maybe look around some more.Can't beat the price and I see no problem at all with the quality.I would buy it again.

Loud as advertised, but not much else.
This is my second didgeridoo. I started with one of those compact travel didgeridoos and after learning to do a bit of circular breathing I wanted to try a "real" didge. This product looks just like the photographs, it is thin plastic with a slight bell on one end and a dark beeswax mouthpiece on the other. It is realistically painted to look like wood. I removed the cheap decorative twine sling.Compared to the travel didgeridoo, this instrument is loud as advertised. However it seems that this didgeridoo is harder to establish the right vibration to make a good sound. In other words, the sweet spot is really hard to find. It also doesn't have the same responsiveness or range as the travel didge. It is hard to alter the tone and start and stop the various notes by tonguing in order to create a rhythm. In short, this didgeridoo takes a lot of work and is limited in the sound capabilities.The travel didge isn't perfect either, it has a whole host of other issues, so my advice is to get the best product that you can afford, and tailor your expectations. For me this was a good second learner and I've discovered what I like and don't like about each product as I develop skills.Oh by the way, one good thing to come about from playing both products is that my snoring has completely stopped! So despite the fact that I can't make beautiful music, I'm having fun and getting a bit of a health benefit along the way.Time to upgrade again!
