How our reviews work

  • A few days after your order ships we'll email you a link to leave a review. When your feedback is published it will carry a Customer verified badge, so others know it came from a real order with us.
  • We only ever edit a review to remove profanity, spam, or personal details - otherwise it's published exactly as written, good or bad. We won’t ever remove or edit critical ones.
  • You don't need to have bought a product from us to review it - if you know the product, we want you to let other shoppers know what you honestly think, using the form on the product page. These are moderated in the same way, but won't carry our Customer verified badge.

I am trying to learn the Jumbie Jam at the age of 79 having had no previous musical training. I am finding the CD provided in the Song Book particularly useful, as I hope to learn without needing lessons. This is early days as I have been learning for only a week. Even though my practice sessions are only about 15 minutes, I find them quite tiring but I expect this will get better as I progress.
