ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITIONS AND
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

Sales and Operating Income
                                   For the 3 Months Ended:
                                  3/31/97          3/31/96
                                         
  Net Sales

  Income from operations
     Musical Instruments           546,991          739,371
     Data Communications           (51,229)          41,507
     Electronic Assemblies         147,134          134,239
      Total                        642,896          915,117

Musical Instruments Segment

    Sales  declined $355,930 in the first quarter of 1997 when compared  to
the  same  period  in  1996 and declined $1,970,315 when  compared  to  the
preceding quarter ended December 31, 1996.  These declines are due to lower
incoming  orders and changes in product mix.  The preceding  quarter  ended
December 31, 1996 sales reflected reductions in the order backlog for  pre-
holiday delivery of instruments.

    Gross  profit margins declined slightly to 31.3% of sales in the  first
quarter of 1997 from 31.9% and 34% when compared to the same period in 1996
and  the  preceding  quarter ended December 31, 1996, respectively.   These
declines are primarily due to changes in product mix and lower sales volume
over which to absorb fixed costs.

Selling,  general  and  administrative  expenses  increased  slightly  when
compared to the same period in 1996 and declined slightly when compared  to
the preceding quarter ended December 31, 1996.

Data Communications Segment

    Sales increased $533,177 in the first quarter of 1997 when compared  to
the  same period in 1996 and increased $111,032 from the preceding  quarter
ended December 31, 1996 from higher order volume.

    Gross  profit margins were approximately equal to the preceding quarter
ended  December  31, 1996 and decreased to 51.2% of sales from  60.6%  when
compared to the same period in 1996 due to changes in product mix.

    Selling,  general and administrative expenses in the first  quarter  of
1997  increased when compared to the same period in 1996 primarily  due  to
the  addition of personnel and expansion of marketing programs  to  further
promote  the segment's products and obtain additional market share.   These
expenses  were approximately equal to the preceding quarter ended  December
31, 1996.

   Research and development expenses declined slightly when compared to the
same  period  in  1996 and the preceding quarter ended December  31,  1996.
These  expenditures  will  increase in the future reflecting  the  segments
commitment to new product development and support.

Electronic Assemblies Segment

    Sales  for the first quarter of 1997 increased $261,868 over  the  same
period  in 1996 and $386,170 from the preceding quarter ended December  31,
1996  from  additional order volume.  Operating income increased  from  the
higher sales volume.

Other Income and Expense

    Decrease of $215,043 is primarily attributable to realized gains on sales
of investments in the first quarter of 1996 which did not reoccur in 1997.
