THE TROUBADECK ("troubadour" + "deck") is a new songwriting tool from award-winning composer & game designer Charlie McCarron. Each of the 54 cards provides a unique template of chords you can freely use as a basis for new songs, jam sessions, classical compositions, film scores, video game tunes, EDM tracks...

This is part of why I like collecting cards as opposed to something like coins or "real" artwork -- people can and will make anything into a deck of cards :D I love the variety

You must love Books then hsbc - they are about Absolutely Everything for they are suited to everything and are the absolute media king :D

I have scaled back on my book buying since becoming a card collector (and of course there are libraries) and one other big advantage of cards is that they take up way less room and I am not planning to own thousands like some on here

So, except for a $150 pledge for three customized, signed decks (or whatever the offering is), are these otherwise unavailable, or is there another mechanism for getting just a simple, regular deck of these cards? A musician friend of mine who teaches music to children might really enjoy these.

The $5 printable option? All the others including the $150 pledge are gone!

Strag you need to guide your wife into a hobby that requires considerable storage too - my wife has enough wool to knit mittens for all the people of Canada
