Hey Chordly Fam —
We’ve got something special in store for you…
We’re looking for video testimonials from real users (that’s you!) talking about your experience with Chordly — how you’ve been using it, what it’s helped you with, or just why you love having it by your side.
And in return?
We’re giving away a FREE 30-minute guitar lesson with one of our amazing JamFast guitar coaches to every person who sends in a 30-second (or longer) video of themselves using Chordly and sharing their experience.
Important - The video needs to be in PORTRAIT mode (up and down - 9:16 ratio) to be mobile-friendly... not landscape please.
Yup — no drawing, no competition — every single person who submits a testimonial video will get a private coaching session on us 🎉
This is a win-win. You get expert help to keep progressing on your guitar journey, and we get to show the world what Chordly is doing in real people’s hands. Your voice helps us grow and helps others find the confidence to start playing too.
👉 Just reply here or email us your video at [email protected] and we’ll follow up with your free lesson booking link.
We seriously can't wait to hear from you — and we’re so grateful to have you as part of the Chordly family. Let’s keep making music, one small session at a time 🎶
With gratitude,
Marty, Laurel (& Baby Jacquelyn)
P.S. We have a Father's Day Sale going on right now and ALL our stock is at least 20% off! So, if you have that special dad in your life you're looking for a unique gift this year, make Chordly his best Father's Day gift 🏆
Find our Father's Day SALE HERE
P.P.S. It's getting hot here in Reno, NV, so we had to pull all our Chordlys in from the garage to protect them from warping. LOTS Of boxes in our living room now, but Jacquelyn and I have been having a blast making forts with them ;)

Hey Chordly Fam!
We’re excited to announce that we’re officially launching Chordly Masterclasses inside our private community, Chordly Insiders! These exclusive sessions are curated by OTHER top guitar educators around the world and designed to help you level up your playing with clear, bite-sized lessons, warm-ups, and techniques using your Chordly. This will also be a great way for you to see teaching styles of many different known guitar coaches (that you've probably heard of before)
In our first masterclass, by Chris from Guitarmalade, you'll dive into the most common chord progression in pop music (C–G–Am–F) and learn how to break it down using key guitar fundamentals. You’ll explore fretboard awareness, triad inversions, rhythm basics, and how to build practical technique step by step—all within the key of C. It’s a powerful, approachable warm-up that ties together theory and muscle memory in a way that’s fun and easy to follow.
👉 Ready to join? Click here to request access now:
https://www.skool.com/chordly
I'll approve your request personally as soon as I see it—no delay!
This is your chance to go deeper with Chordly, get support from other guitarists, and tap into expert tips that make a real difference.
P.S. One fun and meaningful note: our daughter Jacquelyn was born on the final day of our Kickstarter campaign—and today is her 1st birthday! Thank you for being part of this incredible journey. From launching Chordly to welcoming our little one, it's been a wild and beautiful ride we’ll never forget. 💛
See you inside,
Marty, Laurel, & Baby Jacquelyn

Hey Chordly Fam,
We are going LIVE with Chordly on our site today!

For a special birthday gift, we are doing a 15% Launch Sale for the next couple days only. If your family or a friend wants to grab a Chordly at our launch special price, just write LAUNCH15 at checkout in the code box. Link to our site at bottom ⬇️
And THIS IS NOT an April Fools joke!
I also want to mention that last week was the first EVER Chordly Live Q&A. And only Brandon L. joined in! Therefore, he got nearly an hour of personal one on one coaching! We shared some laughs, learned some things together, talked about the best use-cases for Chordly, and most of all - we had fun!
I'll be posting this Q&A video within the Chordly Insiders group for anyone to rewatch so you too can learn some insider secrets on barre chord technique and how to transfer in and out of barre chords more effectively!
I will also be holding the second Live Q&A this Thursday and you're ALL invited! 🥳
All you need to do is jump into the group, which you can do here >

We're Back Chordly Fam,
Last time we updated you, all shipments were shipped out of our house! We are finally getting close to all shipments having reached their destinations (including international shipments, even the one backer that's literally in the NORTH POLE!) - so, if you don't yet have your Chordly and don't have a tracking number, please let us know and we will jump on helping you find your Chordly whereabouts.
In other news, our private community, Chordly Insiders, has been a lot of fun with the over 50 people that have joined so far. I wanted to extend a heartfelt hand out to you and say, please jump in - no strings attached! (okay, well maybe the 6 on Chordly ;) We have a growing guitarist community, dozens of videos on how best to use Chordly, a free guitar book, a whole guitar Jumpstart Course, and I have SO much more planned to release over the coming weeks/months.
And the even more fun part of the group is... it is all gamified with earning points for engaging with the community and unlocking different courses. This makes learning guitar fun with clear milestones and achievements.
Someday soon I will be charging for this group, but for now I want all you early backers that supported Chordly throughout the last couple years to join for free! Simply follow this link and 'Request Membership'. I will make sure to let you all in asap.
ALSO, we would LOVE to hear back from you! How are you enjoying Chordly? Did it arrive safely? Did it meet your expectations? And is there anything I can help you with to maximize your experience?
It's been nothing short of making our year to hear all the positive feedback, see the photos, and hear about how Chordly is already changing so many of your lives and how/where you practice guitar. We've even heard stories that have literally made us cry. Just know that we sit and read through each testimonial and look at the photos as a family. Thank you again for supporting and following our story throughout this campaign.
I have to mention that for a
limited time we are still running our Kickstarter promotion on our pre-sale website with the best discount we will ever have at 30% 🤯!!! So, if you have any friends or family that want to jump in, now is the chance! Make sure to pass the code
VIP30 along to them. Simply use the discount code at checkout
HERE 😎
Other than that, we look forward to hearing back from you, see your wonderful photos, AND to see you in our Skool community, Chordly Insiders.
All our best to you and, as always, keep jamming,
- Marty, Laurel (& Baby Jacquelyn)

Hello Backer Fam,
We are thrilled to announce ALL Kickstarter orders have been shipped!
Laurel and I have had long days packing boxes and admiring Chordlys. We can't wait for you to get yours!!
Some folks have received theirs and here's what they are saying -
Laurel and I are still pinching ourselves that this is real. It was just a crazy idea 3 years ago and now it's in people's hands - all over the world!
So incredible.
At this point, we can only dream of what the future looks like for Chordly and how we can use it to work towards our massive goal of creating a guitarist in every home.
YOU, our wonderful, wonderful backers will always and forever hold such a special place in our hearts for your support and belief in us and Chordly.
We've had several folks asking how they can get the word out about Chordly and where they can send friends to grab one.
The truth is that we are completely out of right-handed Chordlys at our house right now. But we have more coming in a little over a month.
We'd like to do a Friends and Family pre-order discount for our community.
Feel free to send folks to
www.playchordly.com and use the code KICKSTARTER to get the 25% off pre-order deal.
We have more lefties at our house and can ship them out immediately.
With such gratitude,
Marty, Laurel & Baby Jacquelyn
PS - We would love to stay in touch with you - we've started a community 'Chordly Insiders' where we have several videos showing how to get the most out of Chordly and we'll be in the chats to make sure we can help you reach your goals.
PPS - If you are one of our current pre-orders, I will send you an email directly this week to give you an update on your order.
