Normally if someone was getting their first didge I'd send them towards a middle key like a D or E, however, it's normally the haunting low grumbles of a didge that capture the imagination and this B plays every bit as easy as any D or E so I think it could easily be a perfect fit for a first didge and even a perfect fit for someone that doesn't need more than one. When I play with my band I use a single didge throughout the entire set because it adds to the trance inducing theme that binds the songs together making it one journey. This instrument is versatile enough to play just about any style you want to blow through it. Fairly light weight but solid in tone. The trumpets come easy and diaphragm thrusts clip the overblown so perfectly for percussive beats.
