Hey Backers,

Just wanted to give you a quick update on where we are with Chordly! We've had about 4 different Chordly pre-production samples sent to our house, and we are SO close to confirming the final sample. 

This has taken a bit longer than we expected because our guitar maker has come up with some really neat improvements to make Chordly even better! 

Anyways, I'll share those on the next update after we've received our (hopefully) final sample. Unfortunately, this mean we won't be able to ship this month as we originally hoped. After we get the final sample, I will make sure to update you all with the updated timeline. 

Thanks so much for your patience. We are ridiculously excited to get this in your hands and are working every day to move the needle forward!

- Your Chordly Team, Marty & Laurel (and Jacquelyn)!

P.S. There are still a few of you that haven't completed your shipping information. If that's you, send me an email and I will make sure to send you that link. ([email protected]) If we don't have your shipping information, we can't ship you your Chordly and we certainly don't want that to happen!

PPS. We just started filming our videos for the Chordly library to help make practicing with Chordly even easier! We will let you know how to get access to this library ;)

Reminder: Pledge Manager Survey
2 months ago – Tue, Aug 13, 2024 at 01:08:14 PM

Hi Backers!

This is just a quick reminder that we need you to complete the Pledge Manager Survey which was sent directly to your inbox about two weeks ago. 

The subject line was: "Reminder - Response needed to deliver your reward for Chordly: The Portable Guitar Practice Tool"

If you can't find this email, please let me know at [email protected] and I will resend it for you. ALSO, we will be extending the deadline to verify your address to the end of the month, as there are still a few folks left that haven't confirmed.

Please complete the survey so we can move forward with your order by 1) confirming shipping information and 2) The choices you made when backing the campaign.

Let us know if you cannot find the Pledge Manager Survey or if you have any questions.

Thanks!

PS. Here are the first ACTUAL print samples of the two different SIZES of Chordly card decks! We are SOOO excited how they turned out - here you can see the difference between the Standard size and the Jumbo size decks.

Hey backers,

Be on the lookout for an email directly in your inbox with your pledge manager survey within the week! Remember, this survey is critical to complete in a timely manner for us to begin production and fulfillment plans as soon as possible. With the survey, you’ll be able to:

  • Confirm your choice made when backing the campaign
  • Confirm your shipping information  

Let us know if you have any questions!


Thanks,

- Marty & Laurel

PS. Here's a prototype side by side of our standard Cherry wood and our upgraded Walnut wood models. All the packages will come standard with the Cherry model, but you will be able to upgrade to the Walnut model in the backer survey, just add the add-on 'Upgrade to Walnut' and we'll swap out your Cherry model for the stunning Walnut model. Check it out 👀👇

First Pre-Production Sample 😍
4 months ago – Wed, Jun 26, 2024 at 08:54:55 AM

Hey Everyone,

We have been hard at work over here trying to assemble your post-campaign survey and we are SO close! A few more tweaks and we will be able to get that out to you, so you can confirm your shipping address and check out any add-ons you may want to combine with your Chordly ✅
 
I wanted to quickly update you to show you some progress! First, below is a side-by-side view of our Chordly prototype and the FIRST pre-production sample from our guitar manufacturer! And it is looking pretty great! I had to write a few notes to get the sample just right before placing our bulk order, but I'll personally make sure they will have it dialed in by the next sample.
 
Also, we have a slick new look for our customized Chordly practice exercise decks (both our beginner and intermediate deck). Check those out just below, as well!
 
We are making moves over here and are still very optimistic that we will reach our initial ship out dates :)

Chordly Update +
5 months ago – Mon, Jun 03, 2024 at 11:52:10 AM

Hey backers,

Quick Chordly update! We've been making moves over here and everything feels like it's right on schedule to meet our target ship date!

Our Chordly stand model is 100% finished with our cool logo on the side and the exercise card decks (both beginner and intermediate) have been finalized and sent off to the presses for a sample.

We've recently received our first pre-production sample model of Chordly in the mail from the guitar manufacturer... and it looks AMAZING! We're working out a couple small tweaks for the second sample, but we are optimistic we'll be able to place our initial order after that. 

As we mentioned a few weeks ago, we are putting together the post-campaign survey, which everyone will need to fill out in order for you to receive your Chordly. This survey will... 👇👇

#1 - ✅ Confirm your shipping address

#2 - ✅ Give you the opportunity to grab any last-minute add-ons (like the stand or upgrade your card deck to jumbo-size)

#3 - ✅ Give you a sneak peek at the latest Chordly model straight from the guitar manufacturer!

You should be expecting that survey to hit your inbox in 1-2 weeks - we'll let you know when it's coming so you can keep an eye on your inbox for it. 

Thank you again for all your support, we are so close to bringing our dream to reality and helping you reach your guitar goals quicker 💪

- Your Chordly Team

PS. If you ever scrolled to the bottom of our campaign page, you may have noticed a little surprise that we were expecting our first-born child... Well, introducing baby Jacquelyn who came excitedly into our world during our campaign on May 8th. "Can you say 'Chordly,' Jacquelyn?"
