"I for one don’t have a clue what a minor ninth looks like on a keyboard – but I do on a fretboard.That’sthe handiest thing about this tech, for me at least: it opens up a real, viable avenue between guitarists and the huge, expansive world of plugins and virtual instruments."

“For guitarists and budding musicians looking to evolve as content creators and producers, the Jamstik Classic MIDI guitar is a game-changing and compelling instrument to conveniently tap into a world of sounds you’d never be able to before. It’s amazing.”

"It gives you an option to play music that you wouldn't normally be able to play on something like a midi keyboard. And frankly, exploring all the different snyths available in various DAWs with the Studio is just downright fun. What impressed us was how the Studio was a fantastic tool for beginners who want to learn guitar independently."

"What’s most remarkable to me is how smoothly and precisely Jamstik handles pitchbend. Most MIDI guitar controllers (once you’ve matched parameters carefully between the controller and synth) can sound sloppy – out of tune, out of time with the synth, and vibrato often sounds exaggerated. On the Jamstik, these articulations feel naturally expressive.."

"Latency is solid, with no major noticeable lag time, and best of all the processing power inside the system tracks things like bends and slides like you’ve been hoping for, for years. It even handles finger tapping and hammer-ons/pull offs."

"With remarkable note-tracking and the genuine feel of a real guitar, this might be the easiest and most inspiring way to incorporate synths, pads and all the other secrets of the music tech world into your music."

"MIDI guitars have been around for almost 40 years – but have always been something of a white elephant. Is the Jamstik the first instrument to truly break that mould and be a usable MIDI guitar?"

"Can guitarists finally enter the world of MIDI without compromise?"

"The forward-thinking software and hardware of the Jamstik are genuinely second to none and not only help with the fluidity of playing but also open up a ton of creative potential that still has yet to be discovered."
