I’m about 2 years into guitar lessons and loving it. When I first started, I bought a plastic “pretend neck” on which I tried to practice my chord shapes when I didn’t have a guitar with me. It was flimsy and did not approximate the shape or feel of a real guitar neck. It broke after a week and recall thinking that the concept was good, but the execution terrible.Enter Chordly – I happened on the Facebook ad and immediately backed it on Kickstarter. I’m thrilled with this instrument!! It is super well-made and feels like the top five frets of a guitar. The string tension is perfect and the action a close simulation of an actual guitar. My guitar teacher (performer and teacher) tried it out and gave his enthusiastic approval.I’ve traveled a fair amount and have taken my Chordly on a vacation in Spain and a trip to California. On the plane, I was able to learn and practice C and G scales without bothering the person next to me – by the time we landed, I had a fair amount of muscle memory already. On our tour bus, others asked to try it out, including some advanced guitarists, who offered praise for the feel of Chordly.I keep one of my two Chordlys (Chordlies?) in my backpack for work and errands and use it when I have downtime. I’m working through the beginner card deck and feel that, in this compact and well-designed package, my playing will advance/has advanced at a quicker pace. I’ve found it super helpful for developing muscle memory when learning fingerstyle pattern picking so my right hand loves it too.Thanks Laurel and Marty – this is a terrific idea and tool to help aspiring guitarists!Dom
