A note on membranes:
One of the disadvantages of the original wooden kazoos is that the membrane is attached directly to the body of the kazoo. In order to minimize the problem, I have chosen to use a very durable material for the membrane. None of the membranes in my personal kazoos have ever broken, and I have put many hours of hard playing on them during my shows with the Knobtown Skiffle Band. I do not believe that you will blow out the membrane, but if you ever do, I will replace it for free...you just pay for postage.
