There are USB flash drives, and there are USB flash drives. There are so many USB flash drives that you can buy today – you can find practically any shape, size, and color. Of course, many of those are not worth much. I am sure you know what I mean – I have seen some USB flash drives that make me want to tear my hair out!
This USB flash drive I saw recently listed on Etsy is something else, though. Combining the functions of a portable data storage device and a harmonica may not be the first thing that comes to mind, but I think that it is brilliant! Perhaps this is because I am very much a music person and would love to play an instrument if I had any skill…
In any case, the FlashHarp is the perfect gadget if you are looking for a new USB flash drive (you can’t have too many of them anyway) AND if you need to go busking every now and then. The FlashHarp doubles as a harmonica, and if you don’t know how to make music on one, the kit takes care of that. It includes a harmonica lesson video titled “Five Basic Steps to Playing”.
The FlashHarp comes in two versions – 2GB and 4GB. The higher capacity version is shipped for free, so you might want to go for that. The kit also includes a plastic cap for the USB plug and comes in a recycled hard plastic box.
It’s a no brainer. For $59.95, you get this kit and you get to learn how to play a musical instrument. Forget all the Star Wars and Hello Kitty flash drives for now. Do you know anyone who has a USB flash drive cum harmonica? Worst case scenario – you can always play for some money to get coffee or whatever your poison may be.
