Love it
I'm surprised this has such low ratings..I got this as a stocking stuffer for Christmas and had a blast with it. I can't believe it actually came with a song book, and the humour contained within is good fun too. The interval markings are quite accurate too. And the book has a plastic sheath attached to hold the ruler in.My girlfriend got this for me because I always annoy them by "twanging" random objects on the edge of my desk, so it was a pretty perfect/funny gift from her.As an aside, this works particularly well on cheap/hollow desks, because the vibrations from the ruler are amplified throughout the desk. Nicer, heavier, hardwood or solid desks probably would not amplify the sound much. Mine is pretty loud on my cheap Ikea desk. This would be a good toy to have on an office desk for visitors to amuse themselves with.

Does what it should
Is it a legit instrument? No, probably not, but you shouldn't expect a ruler to be a real instrument. Does it sound pretty close to the songs when played as the book says? Yes it does.

Low pitched
I think the tone produced on this ruler is too low. The vibrations created are barely discernible until reaching the upper notes. The table one uses has much to do with the quality of a sound. I think wooden rulers, a bit thinner than this plastic monstrosity would make a better sound also. Anyway, how is petro-plastic more environment-friendly than that good old renewable resource wood? The accompanying book, however, is tongue-in-cheek hilarious.

Made a fun mini, gimmicky gift especially for the price. Wouldn't really call it "music" though.

ok
this was a very inexpensive stocking stuffer. It served it's purpose well. It was interesting and different, but it was a little hard to call it "music"...

much like many funny gifts
Hilarious and cute gift. But as soon as it gets put down it becomes clutter, much like many funny gifts.

Couldn't find where to put the batteries
It's longer than I thought, about 30cm, and thinner than I thought, about 3mm.Have found a great hack for it! If you lie it flat on paper you can draw really straight lines.

Disappointing!
I expected something a bit more techy/clever..........but instead find a simple plastic ruler, and a booklet telling us how to twang it! This ruler can help draw straight lines.......but is no more "musical" than any other flat piece of plastic!I hope the kids (whose present it is) may find some entertainment in this. But I doubt it!

Excellent quality. Great fun item.
Love this. Comes with a book of tunes to learn. Great quality. Just sooo upset covid will prevent me from seeing my brass band playing sister's face when she opens it on Christmas day! Funny!

This was a "silly" Easter hunt present for my 15 ...
This was a "silly" Easter hunt present for my 15 year old grandson, who is very musical, and says he can play anything. Well he certainly did have a try at this, with much laughter, but needless to say, his tune was unrecognisable. A big hit, but maybe a bit expensive for a "tiny" present.

Surprisingly musical and quite a skill
Came with a book and bought for a professional musician as a fun gift. In actual fact it's really fascinating and you can learn real tunes. Perfect stocking filler for just about anyone
