Interesting story. It will be interesting to see if it reaches its goal, how many would you sell if you "sold" it on thingaverse ? How many musicians use this style? Etc.

Thanks! We're interested to see what happens as well.

Thingaverse/shapeways are certainly options too, but they don't give the same polished product that injection-molding does.

We're hoping that the WeeWow will expose a lot more musicians to this style. Since traditional talkboxes are expensive ($180 bucks or so) a lot of musicians have heard of talkboxes, but not very many have ever used one. Even if they never record with one, we're hoping the WeeWow will give musicians something to experiment with. There are never too many ways to make cool sounds. :)
