  • You can buy a headless Jam Stik Midi Guitar, that is an actual real guitar with a midi pickup for the same price as that thing if you shop around!!!

  • I like 1-year later reviews or 6 months later reviews, etc. And then from people who are honest enough.
    And GuitarGeek is an asshole

  • Learning to operate things on substitute things can be very dangerous. I can tell you from experience that doing a rocket jump with a real rocket launcher is WAY harder than with a keyboard and mouse.

  • Disagree about bending. A lot of big guitar players play with hardly any bending at all. And playing acoustic guitar with bending is not much fun.

  • The videos I've watched on this product clearly demonstrate how NOT to develop and market a product. Step one … never attempt to bully reputable gear reviewers with empty legal threats.

  • My first guitar was an ibanez gio that my parents bought for me for $250 that came with an amp and gig bag. It worked perfectly fine and was a great starter kit. I can't imagine spending over double that for a learning tool that is not even a real guitar. Silly.

  • This happened because a couple asshats couldn't see past what THEY decided it should be before they even opened the box… and Aeroband went into panic mode.
    This thing, while you can, in theory, learn how to play the guitar to a limited extent SHOULD NOT BE regarded or marketed as such because that is NOT what it is best suited for… that may be what the Kickstarter INTENDED to create, but that is NOT what they created… It's best suited for people who know the guitar but not KEYBOARDS, because it is a MIDI KEYBOARD IN GUITAR FORMAT and in THAT light it becomes really interesting…

  • I can see someone coming up with this idea as a high-level concept without thinking it through and deciding it was a good idea. It's sort of like how some e-drum kits have built-in teaching tools in their software. The calluses thing I sort of get (doesn't take long for that to be a non-issue, if it's an issue at all for the player), and a lot of beginner classes do some things that mainly focus no strumming with little fret work so I can kinda see there being a case for having a less/mode like that. And the app could be updated to have full lessons and courses. Depending on how well their sensors work, they could also include things like letting you know if you're muting other strings when playing chords.

    That being said, if you think through it even just slightly more, this product doesn't make much sense. Depending on software updates, you could use it to learn some concepts potentially (you could learn scales and chord shapes on something like this) but aside from that it's just an expensive midi controller. If someone wants to play guitar, they're still going to need to buy an actual guitar on top of this and start dealing with fretting actual strings. And it's way more expensive than just buying a cheap beginner guitar plus an amp or audio interface if you want to run into a computer. You could get all three for that price pretty easily. And they remain useful after you learn to play.

  • What a SCAM. Aeroguitar went from Kickstarter to Indiegogo and made even more money for a TOTAL CRAP PRODUCT. Better to pay a little more but even for $100, a beginner can get a perfectly playable guitar these days.
