Happy Father's Day!

Happy Father's Day to all the Dads out there! We have two of our own at The Music Spot:

Dave and Phil, our very own Music Spot Dads

So I thought the logical thing to do would be to ask them, what would you like to get this Father's Day?

Phil and the Mahalo Designer Ukes

Phil immediately went for these gorgeous new Mahalo Designer Ukuleles.

They come in all colours and patterns, ranging from cute to downright terrifying - to suit all Dads.

Dad can tuck these in the picnic basket and then regale his proud family with any number of Dad tunes in any number of public places - fun for the whole family.

Plus these guys are easy to wrap!

Dave with the Yamaha Electric Violin

Dave has more refined taste. He went straight for the Yamaha Electric Violin.

This amazing violin takes a classical instrument into the realms of pop, rock and beyond. Plug this in and project your sound to your live audience, or create beautiful music on your next recording.

It truly is a next-generation instrument and Yamaha's century-old reputation promises that quality and technology have met to create something that Dad would truly love this weekend - and you will love hearing forever more!

Phil and the new Yamaha Reface Synths

Phil also loves the new Yamaha Reface Synthesisers. Speaking of easy to wrap, these little guys pack a huge punch in a small space.

A great mix of old and new, Dad will love the sounds he can get out of these, and the range is almost endless: he can have Tangerine Dream or Pink Floyd in the YC, classic electric piano feel with the CP, seventies analog synth with the CS, or if he's a fan of the DX7 FM synth get him the DX.

Dave loves the Yamaha MGP24X

Dave has his eye on this new Yamaha MGP24X 24 channel hybrid mixer that just came in.

Apparently it has a digital heart with an analog soul, which Dads love? Either way Yamaha has a long and impressive history of producing top quality professional audio equipment, so this one's bound to be a winner for any Dad.

It features 24 mic inputs, 32 line inputs, 6 aux sends & 2 FX sends, 4 group buses & ST bus, 2 matrix out & 1 mono out. For the Dad who is seriously into creating music, this would be a great pick.

Phil gets the gong!

Phil eventually settled on the new attraction at our counter - everyone loves these Paiste Deco Gongs!

Three sizes - 7", 10" and 13", each with a stand and a beater and each with their own angelic voice. And if you decide not to wrap them, you could present them to Dad in a special pre-dawn way to really make his Fathers Day!

Seriously, if you haven't had a play on these babies, come down to the shop and give them a go. Love!

Dave really, really wants the Yamaha Transacoustic

Dave is a guitarist at heart (no matter how talented he is on every other instrument known to man - yes, he's one of those people!), so it was no surprise that he eventually settled on the Yamaha L Series Transacoustic Guitar.

This really is an inspiring guitar. It can make you feel like you're playing in a purpose built auditorium and there's nobody else in the room. It will bring out Dad's inner creativity and keep him occupied for hours.

It's extremely comfortable to play and the whole family will love the sound of it, no matter what Dad's style, preference or ability. And of course Yamaha's reputation for quality makes this a no-brainer when it comes to choosing something that Dad will cherish.
