Wow, what can I say?
I just received this awesome instrument as a birthday gift, and I'm extremely impressed.

Are you in a band with a song that seems lacking? Just lay down some cowbell and you're sure to soar to the top of the charts.

The cowbell is indeed what separates the mediocre musicians from the true stars. Don't believe me? Check out these songs that have featured the cowbell.

5 out of 5 stars The last Cowbell you'll ever need!   August 19, 2005

Looking back on my long musical career, I have played many instruments, but I keep coming back to my first love... the cowbell. Oh sure, I've tried them all - from triangle to wood block but I have never felt so in tune with any other instrument than the Cowbell.

I have many different cowbells in my collection. Most of these are for a particular mood only. If I am feeling somewhat polka, I always reach for my signature "Shmenge Brothers #6" with the zebrawood handle... for rock it is my "Gussmann Blue-Steel Screamer"... jazz see's me grab my "Trini Lopez Limmited Addition Melody Master" knock-off.

But here is the finest single cowbell I have ever played. It has such a full & pleasant sound it seems to go with any type of music I play. My group was shocked when I showed up to our last gig and I only brought this little beauty with me. They protested at first and even threatened not to do the show, but their fears quickly disovled when I brought the house down with our first song of the night.

I can only close with this... Buy this Cowbell and see if I am not right! This thing is a Godsend for any serious cowbeller out there. You will reach new areas of playing that you did not even think were possible.

In the immortal words of Christopher Walken: "I got a fever! And the only prescription... is MORE COWBELL!"

Fans of the popular Saturday Night Live skit will probably want to join the masses and start playing the cowbell, the musical instrument of the 21st century.
