I think this can definitely help, although I never tried it. But my experience comes from practicing on a keyboard that had LED diodes on top of the keys, and they lit when the time came to play the key. Backing track just adapted to the tempo of the pressed keys, and in no time I learned Fur Elise, and other classical pieces. I was just a kid then, and it was very fun, probly lot more fun then some teacher showing me bunch of notes or something

Wow Todd, that's actually a very nice looking fretlight guitar!!
I always wanted one, but never actually played one. I imagine it could be QUITE helpful for me, to learn more advanced riffs (well, to speed up the "memorization" portion of learning) and also to help with my theory side of learning. Maybe someday, if I find a cheap one!! -------------------- Check out my awesome Nintendo Cover-band, EMULATOR!! http://www.reverbnation.com/emulator Now.....go practice!! |

The irony of the situation, which cracks me up.....
Gabe: "I always wanted one, and it would help me a ton....." Todd: "I'm endorsed/it's a pro model/doesn't help me as much as it would my students....." Although, the biggest downside would be learning on a guitar OTHER than my main axe (97 parker nitefly). Some people can drift between a few guitars, but my performance suffers greatly unless I am committed 100% to my "gig-rig". So ultimately, I may not end up using a fret light very much. Can you hook it up to learning "games"? For example, to help learn intervals in each key? THAT would be awesome for me!! Out of curiosity, how much would one of us expect to pay for a NICE fretlight, such as yours? Approximate $$ is fine. -------------------- Check out my awesome Nintendo Cover-band, EMULATOR!! http://www.reverbnation.com/emulator Now.....go practice!! |

Life is kinda funny like that right? The good news is that they have a new line that is much more affordable than the Pro line. The pro line models are a bit pricey for a learning tool. But I do believe in it as a product which is why I contacted them to start with. I was curious after seeing their web site, and once they sent me one, I was sure this could help students so I try to share it every chance I get.
It works best with Guitar Pro 6. I don't know of any games in specific. But it's a standard guitar so it would work with ROCK SMITH for sure. It makes a pretty spiff stage guitar actually just because of the LED lights. If it's not doing a scale or something, it just sort of does a "chase" back and forth which looks spiff during a solo IMHO Here is a vid. BTW: The "STANDARD" Model is only $399 Brand New! It's the "Pro" Model which is a bit pricey at $1200. http://www.fretlight.com/guitars/ |

That fretlight guitar is really nice. I wouldn't mind owning one, I'm sure it would help me discover new patterns and licks in my scales
