FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE True North Music Productions presents the breakthrough Dragonfly Personal Powerless Stethoscope Amp. Converts Any Guitar Into a Travel Guitar Busy Musicians Find a Convenient Way to Practice Guitar Anywhere Without Disturbing Others - With New Portable, Powerless Cord-Free Guitar Amplification Device NEWTOWN SQUARE, PA., June, 2006 - True North Music Productions today announced the release of The Dragonfly Personal Powerless Stethoscope Amp, a lightweight, portable amplifier that requires no cords, electricity or batteries and allows musicians to maintain their chops in virtually any environment. The Dragonfly is fitted with suction cups that attach to the backs of most electric or bass guitars. The device amplifies a guitar's sound into headphones, which are included. The straightforward stethoscope technology produces natural, studio-quality sound and is a upgraded version of the same technology used in a doctor's stethoscope. The Dragonfly provides players with a lightweight, natural amplification device that can be transported anywhere. Both amateur and professional musicians who travel often, need to practice without disturbing anyone, or play in confined spaces such as hotel rooms use the amp to play their guitars under less-than-ideal circumstances. In particular, U.S. soldiers in Iraq have purchased The Dragonfly because it allows them to amp their guitars in an environment where batteries are scarce and electricity is often unavailable. The Dragonfly also helps musicians play their guitars without disturbing others as the headphones restrict the amplified sound to a musician's ears. "We thought that people who love playing guitar would simply play more often if the whole process was less cumbersome," said Bob Cerone, True North's owner and creative director. "We basically tried to create an amp that would allow people to play their guitars with great tone and without the hassles of batteries or a guitar cord for more meaningful practice sessions and without disturbing anyone." The Dragonfly also attaches to acoustic guitars and functions as a vocal-training tool. Singers can hear their voices vibrating and correct themselves when they're out of tune. Before performances, musicians can use the amp for precise tuning or for instrument adjustments. The amp's patent-pending technology was created by Cerone. He came up with the idea for The Dragonfly while playing his acoustic guitar with an original rock band when he had a cold. When he placed his ear against the guitar to hear the notes, they resonated like a heartbeat. He later channeled this experience into designing an amp that projected sound in the manner of a stethoscope. The Dragonfly retails for $29.95.
