The Stylophone is a miniature analog electronic keyboard musical instrument played with a stylus. Invented in 1967 by Brian Jarvis,^[1] it entered production in 1968, manufactured by Dubreq.

Some three million Stylophones were sold, mostly as children's toys, but they were occasionally used by professional musicians such as John Lennon,^[2] Kraftwerk and David Bowie.^[3]

It was relaunched in 2007 by toy company Re:creation in partnership with a rebuilt Dubreq and several new models were released.
