JAY LEONARD J WRITES AND RECORDS A WHOLE SONG USING ONLY HIS JAMMY MODULAR DIGITAL GUITAR
We first met the Jammy – a portable, modular digital travel guitar that features 15 standard-sized frets, touch sensors to track finger positions, string muting and bending levels, and a detachable neck – back in 2018 and were immediately wowed. Able to fit into most backpacks, the battery-powered six-string can be plugged straight into an amp, a DAW or headphones. The guitar’s sound is both generated and processed on board, so different effects can be used without the need of a mobile app.
But that’s only the beginning of what the Jammy is capable of. In this demo video, in-demand recording and touring guitarist Jay Leonard J writes and records an entire song in just five minutes using only the Jammy MIDI guitar – which, he says with amazement, “looks like something Johnny 5 from ShortCircuit would play.” It’s a completely digital guitar, but he says “it has real strings on it so there is a tactile experience.”
