Weird. Expensive.

P.S. Be sure to read the reviews.

:laughing: Those reviews are hilarious!

3

Y’know, if 3,400 of us just chipped in $10 each…
:slight_smile:

Or 10 of you at $3400. Think outside the box, man.

Strapped for cash at this moment, but I can help with the bottles in building one if needed. Shirley there enough of us on this board with the skills to make one!

Unfortunately we’re all specialists in bottle emptying. :smiley:

I feel a new forum “brewing.”

So what are your prices, Mark? :wink:

The forum will probably need buyer’s guides. One for inexpensive beer bottle players and one for expensive beer bottle players.

10

Not me…I am more of a shot-glass man myself. maybe Dale could be satisfied with the “high D” version :laughing:

11

Those bottom reviews are the funniest. I didn’t finish them. Was laughing too much.

12

There are, and don’t call me Shirley. :stuck_out_tongue:

That’s scary!
Sounds like sharp-teeth-cannibal-clown music to me :astonished:
I believe I’ll have nightmares tonight :astonished:

I don’t understand where the air comes from that would blow across the tops of the bottles. Surely you don’t have to blow with your own mouth, do you? How do you play it?

Why do they refer to MIDI technology and Pianomation CD’s?

17

Just a guess, there’s an electric air-pump geared to an electronic keyboard.

How’s the chiff on this thing?

If I want to play it in church do I have to replace the beer labels with sacramental wine labels?

Since it’s from bottles, and not draft, I assume it’s good for playing voluntaries?

19

Depends on the denomination of the church. Methodist, for instance, would require you to use grape juice labels.

Like a pipe organ, this has a keyboard and a source of moving air,
which is piped over each bottle with an individual tube. Each key on
the keyboard will open a valve for one of the tubes, which blows air
over one of the bottles. There’s some good info here

I imagine because you can hook your synthesizer’s MIDI port into this,
and use your keyboard instead of the one that comes with the organ.
Or, you could use your computer to output MIDI to the organ, making
it a sort of player piano. I believe this is where the Pianomation CD’s
come into play…
