The Frustration of Learning Guitar

Remember when you first got your guitar? It was magnificent, and you were ecstatic to start playing. So you armed yourself with chord charts, online videos, and websites—everything you thought you needed to learn fast. You even tried guides on how to online video lessons, but after hours of focused practice, frustration still crept in. The culprit? Human nature. We instinctively want someone to show us exactly what to do. And that's precisely what Fret Zeppelin does.

Fret Zeppelin: How to Play Guitar the Easy Way

What Is Fret Zeppelin?

Meet Fret Zeppelin, an innovative LED attachment from Edge Tech Labs that shows you exactly where to place your fingers on the guitar. It sits just above the frets and uses a system of LED lights to indicate which notes, chords, and scales to play. The attachment is only half as thick as standard frets, so it won't interfere with your strings or playing style.

Using the free companion app for iOS and Android, you can select the song you want to play, and the LEDs guide you through the notes, chords, and scales. The app also doubles as a guitar tuner. You can even program the full-spectrum LEDs (4.6 million colors) to create light effects and impress your friends while you play.

Learn Faster and Stay Focused

Fret Zeppelin lets you learn quickly and intuitively without constantly glancing at books, videos, or sheet music to figure out where your fingers go. This way, you can focus on your technique and find your own style from the very beginning.

Kickstarter Success and Availability

The team behind Fret Zeppelin launched a crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter, where the generosity of backers paid off: they raised $139,303, easily surpassing the initial goal of $48,000. The system currently costs $200 and will be available starting in October 2017.
