Concise note coming to the point? (7)
I believe the answer is:
laconic
'concise' is the definition.
(similar in meaning)
'note coming to the point?' is the wordplay.
'note' becomes 'la' (musical note as in do-re-mi).
'coming to the point?' becomes 'conic' (like a cone).
'la'+'conic'='LACONIC'
(Other definitions for laconic that I've seen before include "without many words" , "Succinct, terse" , "Tersely spoken" , "'Curt, terse (7)'" , "without verbosity" .)
