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. Musicians can purchase the
amp by using PayPal on the Dragonfly Page or sending a check or money order to:
