Comment about The Didjshop |
|---|---|---|
| David Hubble | USA | Great place to start getting information. Very helpful. |
| Nasi Chassoulas | South Africa | It is a good site with loads of quality didjs |
| Tiago Serodio | Portugal | Without a doubt; it's the best I've seen; but you know that. It transmits trust for me. Other sites make me wonder; I have no second thoughts here. Excellent. |
| Ariena Jensen | USA | Lots of information; a little something for everyone. |
| Kai Lehmann | Germany | very good design. The content seems to be very much related to the Aboriginal culture which I really appreciate |
| Anne Rielly | New Zealand | Enjoyed being able to view and hear the individual didg's. Very helpful information. |
| Allan Daoust | Canada | Wonderful site. I love the selection; and the photos are very flattering. |
| Joe Gentile | USA | It is the best one that I have seen ad offers a mouth watering array of didjeridus |
| Bertil Carlsson | Sweden | It's a greeat site lots of stuf to learn thank you. |
| Tim Muench | USA | I'm having trouble finding the sound; MP3; but the graphics are great; and the artwork on the didjeridus and bullroarers is wonderful. (click on any didj in the departments to get to its own product page to find its MP3's) |
| Omar L. de la tejera | Mexico | Great website; and yes it is true! some people take more than 10 hours looking for a didj on your website! I'm one of them. I think it is great you care about Aboriginal culture. |
| Sherry Taylor | Canada | It's the best didj site I could find!! I've been toying with idea of purchasing a didj for YEARS; but it wasn't until I had my son that I became serious about looking for one.I want him to be exposed to the wondrous sounds of a didj; and perhaps learn to play. Awesome site! |
| Chung Ta | USA | Great site. I like the array of Didjs here. |
| Ray Slezak | USA | The site is great; much more than I had even expected. The mp3s are great; very nice layout. Thanks |
| Nate Cole | USA | i didn'texpect to find a site like this but am glad I did. |
| Mo Abdelbaki | USA | Great site! I'm smitten with the Didj and love the peaceful energies associated with playing it. |
| Bob West | USA | Great site; I really like it. |
| Benjamin Nield | England | Highly enjoyable and educational. |
| Michael Smirnoff | USA | It's a good sight; I was a didj fanatic last summer; reading up and listening to as much didj material as I could find. I read a good book called (approximately) didjeridu: arenhim to internet. I have been playing for about two years and am a serious percussionist multi instrumentalist. Adding the didj to my repertory of instruments really opened up some interesting sonic exploration. I re corded w/ the didj on a couple of tunes w/ my now defunct band and it really added an ambiance. I am looking for a new didj because the one I am currently using is made from (southwestern US) agave cactus and although much lighter than an authentic didj; It is severly cracked. I would consider buying a didj from you guys; but; I'm in college so I am pretty broke. I guess my best bet is the contest! (good luck) |
| Tony Richter | USA | THE SITE IS EASY TO NAVIGATE. THE PRICES SEEM TO BE RESONABLE COMPARED TO OTHER DEALERS. YOU HAVE A NIVE SELECTION AND I LOVE THE SOUND BITES. I HOPE TO BUY FROM YOU SOON. |
| Mark Barber | England | I love the site especially all the didges for sale but I wish the pictures were a bit better |
| Jo Walker | USA | Didjshop.com is the best website I have ever seen for everything I need to know about didjeridoos. I have been playing since I was 11 and this is the only website which I feel handles all of my needs. |
| Simon Barnett | England | I wish I could visit for real!.... The Ability question does not cover me; I can circular breathe but I am not a good player |
| David Padgett | USA | cool site. new at this so I'll be sure to come back around |
| Gerald Sturgill | USA | Where are the full size MP3 files? Also; I'm trying to learn some advanced sounds and can cicular breath; but I wouldn't call myself a fairly good player. (click on any didj in the departments to get to its own product page to find its MP3's) |
| Josh David | USA | I think it's a sweet idea. I've not come across anything like it - on the Internet or in my area. |
| Matt Johnson | USA | Didjshop.com is the most didj-informative site I have come across!! The layout is great; easy to navigate and fast! The didges I own are self-made PVC didges; and it was on your website that I discovered why the vocals may not sound right! Thanx! |
| Nikolett Orcifalvi | Hungary | Very fast - I love it. Like that You show Your very nice pieces in colour pictures; presisely with the prices (not so high - love it). Never been to Oz; but in Jan. I am planning to be and I am planning to have a little trip to Your shop as well. Negative: I prefer natural colours for background; but it's ok. Go on this way; guys! |
| Shawn Collins | USA | You guys have a good comprehensive site. It's nice to see and hear the didg before purchase - the next best thing to actually playing it. |
| Carl-johan Wedelsbäck | Sweden | It is very easy to find what you seek here.. also it is structered that way that people from all walks of life can find what they seek; whether that may be the Diji's as an artifact or a healing touch connecting with our deeper roots! |
| Jeannie Robinson | USA | i want to buy a cheep one but no one sells them for under $100. I like the ones you have but they cost too much. (we would if we could) |
| Diana Kloepping | USA | I'm a beginning didge player and was just surfing the web for playing tips. Your web site had far more didge info than I thought would be available on the web. I'll be back for more. Thank you! |
| Marcia Ehinger | USA | Really complete. Lots of good information. Good photos and sound clips of didjs. |
| Steve Hewitt | Australia | I found what I needed straight away - I needed a video about lessons; and bought it. Thanks. |
| Jake Hutchins | USA | great shop; great instruments; lots of good help |
| Ben Beckwith | England | Its cool shame I cant afford any of them |
| Peter Rookyard | Finland | Amazing site awe struck with the range of information on the site |
| Lea Nixon | England | Liked the tuition section on playing the didjeridu and the pictures and prices of the instruments. When I was a boy I often dreamed I could be an aborigine; I desperately wanted a real boomerang. I used to make my own but they never worked properly. Many years later a friend visited Australia and he brought me back quite a nice one and now I have 3 altogether. I have also managed to make quite a few. I would love to win a Digdjeridu! |
| David Black | USA | I really enjoy looking at your site. I would like to know where I can get some training on playing my didj. I have difficulty with circular breathing. I can make a variety of sounds but none of the sounds I make have the low gutteral sound that the didj is known for. Is this a result of the size of my didj? (try our teaching video - it has helped thousands) |
| Jonathan Kayne | USA | I've been interested in playing a diji for a while now and you guys have been a big help I hope to soon buy one |
| Colleen Whiteley | USA | I am very facinated by the cultures and music. I have always found the sounds of didjeridus to be pleasant and tranquil to listen to. |
| Brendon O'neill | USA | VERY helpful; esp. to a newcomer like me. Lots of helpful information for the novice to learn. |
| Karl Sangree | USA | Your site is Very well thought out and brilliantly assembled. Very nice job! |
| David justin Thompson | England | A great site has just got better! I still haven't had a proper look round yet... |
| Gardner Kealoha | USA | It's a good idea to keep us informed of any new instruments. |
| John Mainprize | USA | interesting display and awesome colors |
| Shadd Lagrandeur | USA | It seems to be giving me a bit of trouble; both with internet explorer and netscape navigator Third pulldown box for selecting interest of related topics is in a wierd spot. Also there is no red asterisk next to surname at the bottom of this form; yet it is required. I also noticed that there are now no 1st class didjes under $200. Also there are no first class didjes in the 200-299 range; but there are concerts. Have your prices gone up; or just your standards for 1st class? (prices have not gone up, nor our standards, they are already higher than anyone elses. We just were low in those price ranges when you visited) |
| Laurie Dunstan | Australia | Not Bad (not a bad comment from an Ozzie) |
| Kevin Ross | Canada | Overall; quick and easy to navigate |
| Bryce Carpenter | USA | Love the site!! I only wish I could buy a didj more often. |
| Jason Barrett | USA | YOU HAVE A VERY GOOD WEB SITE AND YOUR COSTOMER SERVICE IS EXCELENT AND THE DIDJ I BOUGHT IS BEAUTIFULL AND EXCELENT SOUND QUALITY! |
| Robert Wilkinson | Australia | I found your site informative and most pleasant to visit. Great to listen to demos of the didj |
| Rob Ellis | Australia | The website is a great source of information and inspiration for new players. The range of didgeridoos is outstanding. |
| Joseph Patton | USA | I love the website because it's so organized and so easy to find what I'm looking for. I love the pictures and sounds. It's a good atmosphere for didjes. |
| Russ Madigan | USA | Great website... love the music. I really love my didj that was purchased through the website. |
| Laine Griffith | USA | The Didjshop website is world-class; highly profesional website. It is in formative and easy to navigate; The Didj is presented in a respectful and profesional manner. You do everything in your power; using the latest in multi-media technology to emerse us in the sounds and culture of the Aborigines; so that we can experience this from anywhere in the world. Personally; I live on an isolated island (Kaua'i; Hawai'i) and use the web extensivly to touch other parts of the world. I am a woodwind player and have recently received a didj as a gift. I have learned to circular breathe and am experimenting making different sounds. I have gained much in the art and science of playing a didj from your website; from the interesting and informative essays to listening to the high quality recordings of the different didjs. It is obvious you have spent countless hours developing your state-of -the-art on-line business; and it is also obvious that it is a labor of love. Your love of didjs and of the aborigines culture is apparent. Thank you. Laine |
| Michael Blood | USA | interesting |
| Scott Spilker | USA | The changes are great! |
| Roberta Gutcheon | USA | I've yet to visit the new website; but I had no problem navigating thru the old site. I did purchase a didj for a friend when I arrived back home from Oz. I had many questions which your staff was more than helpful with. When the didj arrived it was everything it claimed to be. A pleasure doing business with you. |
| Lin Stuart | Australia | very international easily accessable for info great photos |
| Michael Rosenzweig | USA | You all have made it possible to virtually experience your part of the world. |
| Edward Gurney | USA | I really like your site. I have learned alot about both the instument and native culture. |
| Wendy Barker | USA | The website is easy to navigate. The artwork is great as well as the information on the various products. |
| Joey Brocke | Canada | its great lots of nice didjes to look at and buy if you want; nice layout and a great site overall I've passed on the url to many friends |
| Scott Butcher | Australia | great I've been trying to find a good site but there is so much crap to sort through but now I found the one site to relieve all my needs for the culture and information one needs. |
| Chris Castle | USA | I enjoy it; and the new look. I would rather have access to sound bytes for all the Didjes; but I was told that it would be tough because it would increase the costs to the consumer. Since I can't hear what it sounds like (as a beginner) I really don't know what kind of sounds I should be able to get out of the Didj; that is why my #1 interest selection was 'advanced sounds'. I don't know any other Didj players; so I often wonder if I am playing it correctly etc. (join our didjnet and you might hear from other didj players) |
| Mike Gross | USA | Your website is colorful and inspires to pursue didge music and the Aboridginal culture. |
| Brett Morris | USA | I like the new look and will be visiting more often! |
| Edward Gardner | USA | Very good site. I;ve learned a lot. |
| Bob Pace | USA | Well organized w/great background material. I'll come here when I'm ready to buy! |
| Karen Kadota | USA | Very interesting place to browse. Glad I stopped |
| Diane Linen | USA | I haven't been able to afford a genuine Didj so I have been blowing on a golf tube to learn how. Your website is quite extensive and has lots for a beginner to learn from. It's arranged nicely and is easy to move around. It looks very professional. |
| Chad Bell | USA | i bought an unpainted 1st class didj online last year. it outplays (in the right hands; maybe not mine) any of my friends; some of whome spent much more money. shipping was prompt; everyone was polite..a wonderful experience start to finish. |
| Cory Giem | USA | I love this website; I like the new look of it and I think you guys did a really good job! My favorite part of the website are the MP3s; it's nice to be able to hear your didj before you buy it :) |
| Gerik Forston | USA | i really like how you have sound clips; a very good idea for a website. |
| Phil Fairon | Canada | love the site; useful and informative... looking forward to purchasing a 'real' didj!! |
| Nicholas Gunder | USA | I think it is the best site on the web for didjeridus. It is cool that you get such good feedback from you customers. |
| Teresa Woodson | USA | wonderful site..! I am doing an Outback educational program with my joey wallaby and have been seeking to add in as much aussie culture as I can... I just got a small didj although it is from another company I was searching to learn more about this instrument to share with the kids. your site is providing me some good info to share in my program. Teresa |
| Tillapaugh Jason | Canada | Awesome!! Graphicly enticing. It's hard to find decent didj sites. I have to look no further.:) |
| Sarah Harvey | Australia | thought it was great |
| Jeff Hazel | USA | very nicely done. Quite interesting! |
| Kerrylee Stovell | England | Being in the heart of England; I wasn't exposed to any Didj's; until I became a full time traveller; and got given a Didj by one of our site members; your website is full of interesting facts and top class Didj's!! |
| Carolyn Bradley | Australia | Cool |
| Jonathan Lewis | Canada | Great Site!!! I wish you used another form perhaps .wav ; for hearing the didg sounds. |
| Chris Lofthouse | England | didgeridoo heaven |
| Robert Schlim | USA | The spelling of excepting in the first sentence of last paragraph of Conditions of Entry has two ii's. Maybe it's the Aussie way. You've got a great website. The tone is down-to-earth; the text is friendly; the graphics are superb; and the overall appearance is very attractive. (It's a spelling mistake and you get an extra entry for pointing it out to us) |
| Andreas Krieg | Germany | it was an exciting and interesting experience to watch this page and now I tfink I'm sure to buy a didj at your shop |
| Misty Bombardier | USA | I learned quite a bit; great site for interested Americans. |
| Joyce Duffy-bilanow | USA | Wonderful. I like the emphasis on fairly reimbursing the people who belong on the land. |
| Sjoerd Lintermans | Holland | I think that it's very interesting; especially the part about how didgeridoo's are made. Just one special piece of instrument! |
| Mike Stanley | USA | the one and only......it doesn't get any better |
| Mathias Hamberg | Sweden | Bought my first didge a couple of weeks ago and although it sounds quite ok; I feel sad about that I didnt know about your site until now. This is by FAR the best didge site I have seen so far and I am pretty sure that I wont see any better. I can assure that the next didge(s) that Ill buy will be from you guys! |
