As a music beginner who only joined the company in April this year, sometimes I’m surprised by the things we get at Sound House. Here are five products that I couldn't help but say to myself, “We even have these?!”
There are many products that are not directly related to music, but I hope you can get a sense of Sound House's pride (?) in trying to meet the needs of its customers.
1. MegaHouse / Official Othello
The logo with "Othello" is engraved on the frame of the Othello board like it was when it was first released in 1973.
This is said to be a highly respected product used in official tournaments of the Japan Othello Federation and in world championships.
I was so surprised becauseI didn't think that Sound House, who mainly deals in audio equipment and musical instruments, would also be a dealer for Othello.
It just so happens that I've been wanting to buy an Othello board for my house, so I think I might just buy one and start playing with it.
By the way, would anyone like to play Othello with me?
2. PELICAN / V730 TAN
PELICAN's Vault series gun cases are designed for maximum impact resistance, dust and water resistance, and weather resistance. If you are a survival game player, this is the perfect storage case to store your valuable gear and it’s the perfect size for organising a variety of equipment which makes this case perfect for very active players.
It is also available in two colours: chic black and wilderness-inspired tan. Just looking at it is enough to make get pumped and start fantasising about the next game.
It's no surprise that we deal in cases for musical instruments, but I never thought we'd even be dealing with gun cases!
Assuming you're going to put a long object in it, I'm even thinking that this one, with its excellent impact resistance, would be the best solution, as it's less likely to break.
The case even looks cool and it protects well, I want one.
3. KORG / Pitchclip 2+ Clip Tuner Genga
The PC-2+ clip tuner, which is loved by many customers, is now available in a limited Pokémon Collaboration model. The tuning accuracy and visibility of the LED display have also been greatly improved.
I'm an avid Pokémon lover, so I somehow typed 'Pokémon' into the search window on the Sound House website and this came up.
There are three versions: Pikachu, the face of Pokémon; Kabigon, whose large face soothes you just by looking at it; and Gengar, with its dark taste, is too cool.
No, they are too cute. If they perform well and look great, doesn't that mean they're invincible?!...I’m buying this one immediately.
4. BeLINKS / Plain Rib Boxer Briefs
These are comfortable, tenspan boxer briefs.
Yes,this is important so I’m going to repeat this again.
These boxer briefs from Tenspan are so comfortable to wear.
Well, I’m starting to think that Sound House isn’t really an online store for musical instruments and audio equipment anymore.
I never thought they would also carry underwear with ribbed stomachs and stretchy fabrics for comfort.
When I was in primary school, someone on TV said, "All you need is a little money and some underwear for tomorrow.”
This saying is about how you can do almost anything without many things, as long as you have the bare minimum (material things) and what you want to do (goals) in mind.
I will prepare for this and boldly challenge everything.
5. Sound House / SoundHoushu and Tazugane
I said there were five choices, but I am using the secret technique of introducing two together at the end.
What a surprise, Sound House even deals with Japanese sake.
That alone is a surprise, but there is an even more surprising point of interest.
These two types of sake are brand new Junmai Ginjo-shu that was developed by Sound House along with Hagino Shuzo in Miyagi prefecture.
What's more, the proceeds from the sale of these two products will be donated to the Sound House Children's Mirai Foundation to help children's futures.
This is a new venture for Sound House. We want to make you smile by offering you delicious sake. Your smile will then lead to children smiling. We want to value that kind of relationship. So, this is our new attempt at building the future.
The SoundHoushu sake has a flowery Ginjo aroma and a soft, gentle sweetness of rice, while the Tazugane sake has a gentle aroma and a rich, elegant flavour that builds slowly.
We hope you enjoy these.
In addition to musical instruments and audio equipment, Sound House also deals in a variety of other unexpected items.
You too can find something unexpected here! Come take a look around!
