Mac Compatible Microphone - Affordable Quality Cardioid Mic

I was very surprised by the quality of this product. With such a low price (comparatively), I believed that this mic would not perform as well as any of its competitors. However, the mic performed quite well; I was able to record both acoustic and electric guitar without any difficulties. It even served as a decent drum overhead for a couple sessions. All I needed was a USB or Firewire audio interface and it worked immediately with Garageband.

Hello Kitty - Guitar and Headphone Amp

My kid sister is a mess: 1. Because she likes HELLO-KITTY stuff. And 2. She lacks real musical talent but that doesn't stop her from wanting to become a rock star. Just to shut her up, dad bought her her first electric guitar:



And so she can (mostly) keep the racket to herself: a Hello-Kitty headphone amplifier so she can walk around the house sing and strum to herself, and drive us crazy that way:

I can't believe dad spoils her like this. But anything to stop her wanting and whining. I just tell myself when she grows up (if ever) - she's going to move on and give the stupid thing to me. By then I hope the hopefully long-discontinued Fender Hello Kitty guitar will become insanely valuable to gee-tar collectors, and I'll make thousands of dollars off her silliness.
