Looking to buy a perferrably new didgeradoo for $40 or less. It should be made of natural materials not pcb or anykind of pipe or plasticy material. Can only pay in BTC

If you want a real wooden one, made in Australia, then $40 will buy you about one third of a very cheap and not nice sounding one. You'd be better off with a cardboard tube. You learning, or experienced?

I like to do things right or not at all thanks for the advice mates I defiantly want an authentically sounding one so I can meditate with it, I'll just wait till I can afford it.

I completely understand. I spent a few weeks looking and testing till I found the right one last time. But I learned with anything long and tubular - long cardboard rolls, a vacuum cleaner tube (you get some good effects from bendy bit), pvc pipe (with gaffer tape on the edge to prevent cuts), and a metal pipe. Then when I went on to a real one I could really tell the difference and listen for it. If it's just the breathing, concentration and meditation you're after, try any found object and practice on that. Anything at all that's the right shape and size. Then you'll know what to look for when it comes to buying a good one. I'll be happy to give you any advice you need should you change you mind about getting one. One such piece of advice is ask your significant other first

Got a didgeridoo from x8drums.com they shipped the day when they said they would(I guess the brand i got took an extra 3-4 days this was mentioned in the slip/reciept and the phone call i had with them) and the didgeridoo isn't bad for $40.. Still having trouble constantly breathing but I expected that once i get it down, I'll be in heaven though.

Post something on youtube when you're feeling confident +1 Interesting. How one learn to constant breath? I once saw someone using this instrument - is it really a instrument or a tool to meditate - can you tell more about it?

Think the aboriginals used it as an instrument, I have read of cultures using it to reach higher states of consciousness(Similar to indian cultures drumming, or chanting to send listeners into a trance). I will be using it for the great sound that it makes and every time i hear a didgeridoo I go to a great place
