Vibroplex Original Bug Keys
Vibroplex Original Bug keys are a genuine piece of history. First patented in 1904, the Originals are still manufactured today, using tools and dies very similar to those used by their inventor, Horace G. Martin, when he revolutionized the telegraph industry with his "Bug". The Bug keys are designed for code speeds ranging from approximately 20 wpm on the low side to 50+ wpm on the high side. Today, operators using the Originals can have the same experience that pioneer telegraph and railroad operators had over a century ago. Owning this beautifully crafted instrument will link you to a great tradition. The Original Bug keys are available in standard, deluxe, 24K gold presentation, and 24K gold models as well as right and left handed models. The quality and pride of ownership of Vibroplex Bug keys cannot be matched. A cord is not included.
