The Kepma B1 Dreadnought and B1 Grand Auditorium feature an all-solid construction: HTT (High Temperature Torrefied) AA+ solid Sitka Spruce for the top and solid Indian Rosewood for the back and the sides. Each top is custom tapered and patiently hand tap tuned" (*) for perfect frequency response and tonal balance. What makes the B1 incredibly toneful is the combination of tonewoods and a re-engineered top bracing system that provides stability while enhancing the projection of the instrument. Rosewood is an incredibly delicate tonewood to work with in solid form and is prone to premature cracking, splitting and deformation in "guitar" thicknesses. However, the Kepma Wood Process ensures that the finished product is perfect. This guitar comes alive in your hands and you feel its character throughout your entire body as you play it. It's bright where it needs to be, and gives you an amazingly detailed low end and slightly darker undertones you won't find in any other guitar. Articulation is extremely important and the B1 delivers with amazing precision and clarity. It projects with perfect balance - something every player wants but few guitars deliver. Every B1 is meticulously crafted with the highest degree of precision to yield one of the finest playing guitars in the world. In addition, it is set up using the PLEK(TM) Fretboard dress &nut system. Latest innovation and state-of-the art technology in guitar manufacturing, PLEK is an entire process that helps achieve the optimum playability of each instrument: with the help of a computerized machine which scans the whole fretboard (all the work performed on an instrument is done under simulated string tension to reproduce exact playing conditions), it files and cuts the frets accordingly, resulting in precise intonation and buzz free playing right out of the box! Once it passes the final hand inspection test, the B1 is settled in the vibration room for 14 days (that's 336 hours: "playing equivalent" of just over 1 year). This process settles the instrument and provides a warm rich tone and stable performance. In fact, the favored balance, resonance and tonal range of vintage guitars come from hundreds of hours of actual playing time. Kepma's custom designed simulators vibrate the instrument at a prescribed range of frequencies to bring out the tone of the guitars natural wood. The acoustic-electric B1E Dreadnought and B1E Grand Auditorium models are equipped with the Award-winning LR Baggs Anthem Stage Pro Preamp, which received the Player's Choice Award by Acoustic Guitar magazine. Coming standard with a TKL Custom Deluxe ABS case, the Kepma B1 is simply... perfect. Every Time. (*) Hand "Tap" Tuning Each top is hand "tap" tuned to measure the overall balance and frequency response of the top. If the frequency profile is not precisely "matched" to the desired profile, then the top is put back into the tapering CNC for additional refinement until the response perfectly matches the desired response profile of the instrument.

Dog Loves this toy!
Color: Crab
Keeps our poodle entertained and excited. The rechargeable battery lasts a long time. You can make it play crazy music or just shake. It’s hilarious to watch him play with it. It’s very chew resistant, and believe me, he tries his best to destroy it.
If you have a high energy dog, they’re gonna love it.

Great toy for puppies!
Color: Turtle
I love this turtle. My toy poodle puppy has boundless energy. She loves this thing. It keeps her busy so I can get laundry and other things done. I am buying a second one for when the first one loses its charge😂

It broke within the week
Color: Turtle
The toy was ADORABLE, it worked very well for the first week. And then it broke. I bought two for my puppy and my 8 year old shih tzus. It stopped vibrating and just made loud grinding and squeaking noises. I would recommend this toy if it lasted longer.

Offers tons of activity
Color: Turtle
My 70lb dog LOVES this turtle toy, was worth the price. He will play and play until he’s exhausted. We have to give him breaks from it. We use the second setting which is just for movement, no music. The only aspect I don’t like is that he will inadvertently press the button when he’s biting the toy, changing the setting and sometimes has turned it off. The velcro is super strong, which is good but makes it difficult to open. Battery life is decent, lasted a few days with him playing with it an hour or so each evening. I like the auto shut off after 30 minutes of no movement.

Great toy for a dog who is not afraid of noises
Color: Crab
My puppy loves this thing! She was confused at first but now she plays with it daily. I just let it jump and sing the first time. She looked at it with the cutest head tilt. It is a bit loud so if you have a dog that's scared of noises this might be the right toy. Now when she picks it up, I turn it on and she gets so excited! The different songs make the toy less annoying for me, lol. Honestly, anything to tire out a 4 month old puppy. She is very entertaining to watch.
