It would never have occurred to me to sell headphones entirely based on what *colour* they are. They keep their tech specs extremely well hidden and don't mention how they sound at all. (Which is a shame, because they do have some neat features, like the reversible cables.)

ENGINEER GOOD PROFESSIONAL TOOLS edit / delete

I like the pliers that are specifically designed for removing stuck screws. (I do have to wonder whether they have other brands they trade under, e.g. "Technician: Mediocre Professional Tools", "Cowboy: Poor Professional Tools".)

C.A. SEYDEL SÖHNE - Handmade in Klingenthal / Germany since 1847 edit / delete

Harmonica makers (of the "we're number two but we try harder" variety). The neat thing is that you can order most of their models in custom tunings for not very much money. I'm tempted to order an A diatonic with a mixture of the "Highlander" and "Paddy Richter" tunings...

Shipped next day. (My neighbours must hate me; this is probably more annoying than the banjo.)
