The Stylophone was
invented in 1968 by Brian
Jarvis of Dubreq Studios,
London. Repairing a
toy piano for his niece,
Brian had the idea to
replace the toy keys with
electronics, creating a
monophonic organ and a
unique, electronic sound.
Designed with a simple
oscillator, controlled by
a metal keyboard on a
printed circuit board and
played with a hand-held
stylus, the Stylophone
was born.
The finished
Stylophone
design resembled
an old transistor
radio and
production began
in London in 1968.

IT ALL
BEGAN...
