Why would you announce this without having done it yet? This comment should’ve came from the “MIDI-Chlorians” youtube channel. Now if you don’t do it right away, someone is going to steal this idea. Get on it now
I believe there are a few things like this that that are for woodwind players if I'm not mistaken. I'm not able to Google the names right this minute though.
I have to say this is a really good tool. I enjoy both regular guitars but also I enjoy synthesizers. This is more midi/synth based than guitar based. This is good if you want to use this for playing midi/synth instruments. If you’re a guitarist on the go, this is helpful for sure. I use it for when I’m having to go to multiple places through the day. This is an investment. Here are the cons to the jammy. Its kind of plasticy. You have to get used to the feeling of it as well, it doesn’t feel super natural but it’s not hard to get used it. It took me about few days of toying around with it to get used to it. It’s charge is kind of middle of the road, so it’s not great but it’s not bad. I recommend this to anyone who is looking for a portable instrument that can be used for multiple purposes. If you’re looking for a new guitar, this is a fun addition to the collection but shouldn’t be a go to for solid guitar playing. The jammy company is doing pretty consistent updates for its firmware and have improved upon the response issue that a lot of people had with it at first. All in all, it’s a reliable instrument with some minor setbacks, but with more potential than downfall. It’s a solid 3.8/5
4 things I want to know: Does chords work well ? Is the latency ok ? Are bends, and other expressions detected by the pickups? Is it better than a midi pickup like for example fishman triple play or others ?
I've seen videos where people trying to slide and the effect was pretty limited. I was about to try one, but I don't know if I want to spend $400 on an experiment
ive seen some other reviews for this, and some of them are negative, but despite people's criticisms of this instrument, i do think it would be super fun to play around with, and would totally get it if i had more money. My current financial situation wouldn't allow a several hundred $ purchase on something that may or may not work, but if i was making a living off of something better paying than washing dishes, i'd totally want to buy and play around with this thing. I will say one of the biggest complaints ive seen from negative reviews is the fact that sometimes the midi sensors misread what youre playing and output a wrong note, but ive heard a couple say that thru the app, a few software changes were made to make this problem less frequent, so that makes me really excited for the development of this technology. So altho this tech is still in its early stages of development, i do think its super cool and those in a financial position to do so should totally check it out.
I love the idea of a midi controller in a guitar form factor tbh. I wish more guitars had thus functionality built in, like I’ve seen people do custom Stratocaster pickguards with USB plugs in them for MIDI out.
Well, there are (at least) two approaches to MIDI guitars: 1) Having all pitch-to-MIDI conversion and a MIDI Out (and Bluetooth MIDI) aboard the guitar (as with the Jamstik Studio and apparently this Jammy); 2) Having all pitch-to-MIDI conversion in some case, fed by the individual signals of the strings through a cable with 13-pin connectors (as with MIDI-ready guitars by Fender and Godin and the GK-3 pick-ups by Roland, with among those "cases" the GR-55 by Roland and the SY-1000 by boss). I think that each approach has it pros and cons. I could be in a marching band playing a battery-powered synthesizer (or soft synth on a mobile device) through my Jamstik Studio, and have the sound come from a portable active loudspeaker. I could play my 13-pin gear and have better guitar sounds (Godin) or dedicated guitar synths with MIDI Out.
This remembers me the kitara, the diference being that in the kitara, the "strings" were substitued by buttons in the neck instead of a proper fretboard and by a screen thing that reacts somewhat to the movements of the right hand.
Is there any reason to use one of these over one of those midi pickups on an actual guitar, or using one of those guitar-to-midi boxes with a normal guitar? I already have multiple guitars, and those removable midi pickups etc are half the price. Then I'd have full scale and range of the guitar, and a normal guitar that still does guitar stuff.
A midi controller gives you a direct midi signal that won’t be fucked with if your slightly out of tune, I’ve tried out midi pickups and midi to guitar they don’t sound half as good
I always wanted to play midi Guitar live. But not something quite like this exclusively. Amir Derakh has always been one of my biggest influences. I wish the divided pickup, midi converter thing had matured a bit more, if it had come as far as modelling has we'd have something quite usable by now. I still have my GI-20 and a couple of GK pickups, and I still hope to build a dedicated hybrid rig with a real guitar that can also play synth modules.
I saw a review video Rachelf did on this thing about a week ago. The way she talked about it, the Jammy is junk. Her main complaint was that it's less responsive than my last ex-girlfriend.
Its trash. I bought one, very unresponsive, the midi didn't always record properly (i.e. missing notes played).. could go on and trash this for a few more minutes, but its not even worth it.. the thing is worth about 100 bucks, maybe 2.. The best thing about it is that its portable.
Wish this guy would get to the point. What's really important is... Do the left hand neck strings vibrate like a normal guitar with the pitch then being converted to midi, or are they just to make contact to trigger a midi tone in synth ?
Oh that's it... I just cannot express myself accurately without digital fart noises. Or cat meows. Or laser beams... Nope... Just can't accurately express myself without those.
@@erodi6956 Is there a music publishing company that Warner's hasn't bought, yet? Anyway, from what I just read, a few years ago "Happy Birthday" was ruled by a federal court to now be in public domain, so Warner's can gey kaken .

I'd rather get an Artiphon Instrument 1 instead of that thing. What happens when you break a string? You can install fresh strings on it or you're stuck with what it came up with?
Thank you for your disclaimer, the blow back from the analog dedicated peeps is always a thing. Attempts to bring them into the recording/midi/digital side of the art is not always necessary or even appropriate, as you know. Looks bad ass. Thank you for your work bro. My share with list have all gotten a link right back here. 🦃🤘🏻🚽
I'm very very pro-midi/digital/electronic music etc. But I've heard very little good about this thing by people who weren't sent one. Many people have said that it's very unresponsive and tracks really poorly. I use synth with my guitar and keyboard all the time and love it. I'm waiting for my order of the new BOSS synth pedal as we speak! :D I just have strong doubts that this thing works all that well from the majority of what I've read and heard.
So it's a midi keyboard function in guitar form? Is there any benefit to getting this instead of a guitar-to-midi box and just using one of your regular guitars?
Hey Fluff, Happy Birthday! Would love to see a follow-up video please. I have not yet found a review of jammie that covers some things I would really like to know about jammie as a MIDI controller. I use the Fishman tripleplay, but wonder how jammie performs. . Things like- tracking speed/latency, accuracy, chords, continuous or stepped bends, slides, picking vs. fingerstyle,, dynamic range, and if there are differences in tracking speed between low and high strings. Would love to see a comparison between the tripleplay and jammie or other options if you’re ever up to it. This might not be in your wheelhouse, but it could be a fun and helpful adventure into guitar MIDI tech. Love your channel. Happy Thanksgiving!
There's a smaller channel that I follow called Rachelf. She did a pretty truthful video on the Jammy a little while back. I felt like it highlighted some of the things you mentioned. ruclips.net/video/zR1nhH_CHNc/видео.html
Is there a nob on the guitar to switch to different tones wail using the app as well or do I have to go back and forth to select different tones evry time
@@pyramydseven I should do a video on my MIDI guitars. This one just adds an App to make it hip but is useless as a MIDI controller IMHO. Get a real electric guitar or a real MIDI guitar is my opinion. When you try to make something "All Things" it usually end up being none of them.
This sounds like a very cool product. Where can you get one of these? I am like the intro and extra music to your video. It sounds nice and heavy-metal you didn't by chance use this guitar to get that did you? Thanks for the demo.
I wonder how many people bought this after watching your video just to be throughoutly dissapointed. I was wondering why you would chose happy birthday as a song. Turns out the "whacky" can't handle much more heat than that.
This midi controller should be taken seriously. it isn't good for performances but it is perfect for making music in studio because nowadays music is made in digital daws whoch do everything for you. For me with midi keyboard and decent e drum kit this would make good set of instruments for me since if i decide to get into music production i'll go independent and lucky for me to disribute my music today i don't need record companies to do so.
It sounded weird doing just guitar sounds. Not a bad a weird but yeah. This is the first time I’ve seen a demo of it that wasn’t cheesy. Lol. Also didn’t Gene Simmons buy the rights for happy birthday? Or is the times up for that?
Can you record episodes about guitar midi systems on the example of ROLAND GI 20 from the moment of mounting and setting the GK3 pickup on the guitar, by configuring the interface and sounds in a REAPER or CUBASE program. I do not hide that I need your help so will you help?
Failing to see how the Jammy is more expressive than a keyboard with aftertouch tbh. I come from using 80's guitar synths like the Roland G series, and the Synthaxe, and both look just as, if not more capable (the SynthAxe slays the Jammy and was made in the 80s!). Midi lag is a bit greater on older units, but the expression on the Jammy is just dissapointing. I've looked all over RUclips and cannot see anyone do a good bend on it, or vibrato well. So yer, keyboard with aftertouch and 2 mod wheels has more expression currently in my opinion.
A keytar with no keys. 🤔A midi controller with no keys, pads or buttons. 🤔A midi controller with strings. 🤔 Solves some problems. Definitely a market for it. The indie gogo campaign would be interesting to research. I hope their r and d plans call for continued work and support. Would be cool to have a small board inside able to handle more fun stuff. Looks cool.
Hi Mitchell! Unfortunately, we don’t have a left-handed version for now and the right-handed version can't be used by lefties because unlike the strings, the string sensors can't be placed in the opposite order. But I suppose we’ll have it in the future. Subscribe to our channel and stay tuned!
It's a guitar with a full price, and your forgot to comment on the guitar aspect. Midi can be played with empty pudding cups, surely we expect more from a guitar version.
having flashbacks of CASIO midi guitar ... not good. even the roland midi pick-up could'nt make me forget that nightmare. obviously this is not the same thing ... i'm just old, i guess. LOL
Almost all of us started w a casio or 2, but we started. Old? I'm with you. I for one appreciate the history our music communities have. Overcome quite a few things. Best part, I'm whispering now, Apple no longer rules the market and tech. 🤘🏻🦃
Because when I bought my first guitar, I couldn't wait to come home and make it sound like... The Mormon Tabernacle Choir. Or make it sound like the horn section of the Philadelphia Philharmonic....😒
Hi Marcos! Jammy is very different from SynthAxe and much newer ;) Jammy is not only a MIDI controller, it can be both a MIDI controller and a standalone digital guitar. It has two onboard sounds (acoustic and electric) and over 15 virtual guitar pedals. Also it's portable, it has a detachable neck and a frame and it’s designed to fit into your backpack, so you can play it whenever inspiration strikes.
@@JammyGuitar I can see that portability is a big point of your product and I really think it's pretty amazing. By no means looks like a bad product. But I would take more expression and playable modes on a straight up midi controller (like the Synthaxe, the burried midi gem from the 80's, was) controller over effects and built in soundbanks, that I can EASILY have access on my laptop or even my phone, any day. I would love to try this with AmpleSound Plugins with a good Amp Sim but I can't see myself using the built in effects/sounds at all.
Reminder everyone this a sponsored review. I paid like $50 for my guitar midi (google rock band midi guitar). This is overpriced for the quality of it imo watch non sponsored review on this site
@@bavingeter423 Indeed, maybe the concept is difficult to implement in a way that would appeal to the masses, there have been more digital guitars from what I've seen, they just haven't been very good. I really look forward to getting one of these if I can afford it anytime soon, tho I'm not even sure if I can get one here in the uk, we'll see..

Popping some popcorn and watching the flame roll in. You are a brave man, Fluff.
The question that always comes up with midi guitars is: does it track fast and does it track accurately? I got no answer to that. :(
Ioannis Tziallas that’s because this is an add. Go check out Rachelf she has an accurate review
In short, no, it does not
This would be really cool for expressive woodwinds like the shakuhachi, where bending the sound is part of how you play the instrument.
Agreed. 🦃
I believe there are a few things like this that that are for woodwind players if I'm not mistaken. I'm not able to Google the names right this minute though.

Making the rounds.
I saw it first on Produce Like a Pro while he was at a trade show and they demoed it.
My mind works in "fretboard" vs "keyboard" so this would possibly quicken my workflow when I program midi in my daw.

Which Casio MIDI guitar are you referring to ? They made several
@@DBCisco DG-20 ? (ugh) more of a plastic toy than musical instrument.
@@BBfanfun I still have mine and it is an awesome controller.
@@DBCisco good for you. mine was crap
Wheres the fishman triple play review? Fluffrrs?
Because when I bought my first guitar, I couldn't wait to come home and make it sound like... The Mormon Tabernacle Choir. Or make it sound like the horn section of the Philadelphia Philharmonic....😒
Can someone do guitar strumming in midi files to use in styles that i create in cubase? Thanks
So... It's a SynthAxe with less features?
I just wish they did a SynthAxe 2 tbh.
Hi Marcos! Jammy is very different from SynthAxe and much newer ;) Jammy is not only a MIDI controller, it can be both a MIDI controller and a standalone digital guitar. It has two onboard sounds (acoustic and electric) and over 15 virtual guitar pedals. Also it's portable, it has a detachable neck and a frame and it’s designed to fit into your backpack, so you can play it whenever inspiration strikes.
@@JammyGuitar I can see that portability is a big point of your product and I really think it's pretty amazing. By no means looks like a bad product. But I would take more expression and playable modes on a straight up midi controller (like the Synthaxe, the burried midi gem from the 80's, was) controller over effects and built in soundbanks, that I can EASILY have access on my laptop or even my phone, any day. I would love to try this with AmpleSound Plugins with a good Amp Sim but I can't see myself using the built in effects/sounds at all.
Reminder everyone this a sponsored review. I paid like $50 for my guitar midi (google rock band midi guitar). This is overpriced for the quality of it imo watch non sponsored review on this site
being a digital guitar, what's the latency like? is it noticeable, even in the slightest?
Vlad Duh the real question
@@bavingeter423 I came across another review by Rachelf, she says that the latency is doable but points out other issues such as note detection.
Vlad Duh nice. I love the idea of a midi guitar I just don’t know why as of 2020 it’s still something that hasn’t been mastered by the industry
@@bavingeter423 Indeed, maybe the concept is difficult to implement in a way that would appeal to the masses, there have been more digital guitars from what I've seen, they just haven't been very good. I really look forward to getting one of these if I can afford it anytime soon, tho I'm not even sure if I can get one here in the uk, we'll see..
Vlad Duh I wish you the best of luck!
