Just got a theremin back in stock. It's an interesting instrument that makes very distorted noises with your hands as the controls. The antenna controls the pitch and the loop controls volume. Come in and check it out. It's a fun instrument to play around with! You may associate the sounds with the horror/sci fi sounds of 20th century. It also comes with a tutorial DVD (that part was a little unexpected).

Come try it out today! Also buy it.
