The Lite Jam guitar and its innovative app are set to transform the way people learn and play guitar. Featuring the world’s first LED-embedded fretboard with a full-colour spectrum, Lite Jam offers an effortless approach to mastering chords and scales.
Getting started is simple: download the free Lite Jam app from the Apple Store or Google Play Store, connect to the guitar via Bluetooth, and begin playing instantly.
The Lite Jam fretboard integrates 150 colour-changing LEDs flush-fitted across 24 frets, ensuring a smooth surface for unhindered play. The LEDs are rechargeable via a front-mounted USB-C port, delivering approximately four hours of playtime per charge.
In ‘Chord Mode’ you select a key on the App, select the chord variant. Then the correct fret positions appear illuminated on the fretboard – even showing you where to place each finger:
Red LED = First finger. Green LED = Second finger. Blue LED = Third finger. Yellow LED = Fourth finger. White LED = Play open string. No LED = Don’t play that string.
In ‘Scale Mode’, you pick your key and scale type on the App and then the fretboard LED’s light up where you can play that scale in that key.
Red LED = Root note of the scale. Blue LED = Note within the scale. In ‘Performance Mode’
Lite Jam appeals to any level of player: Learners will find the system intuitive and easy to get along with. The best thing about Lite Jam is it allows you to concentrate on the fret board – no need to look back and forth at a book or a screen in order to learn.
Experienced players may recognise these scenarios: 1. You’re stuck in a “Pentatonic Blues Scale Rut” – scale mode helps you explore new phrases between root notes. 2. You’re a song writer who only ever uses major and minor chord shapes. Lite Jam helps you explore a world of other chords out there that add depth and variety to your song-writing.
Lite Jam will launch at the NAMM SHOW on January 23-25th 2025. You can try the Lite Jam Guitar and App on Stand 1932 in Hall E, the Innovation Zone. We would love to see you there – seeing is believing. For more information please visit www.litejam.com The path to guitar enlightenment.
