Listen Later

Chris Prendergast, a Canadian science teacher dubbed “Guitar Chris” throughout his college career, was inspired by his own pain-point as a musician. And the idea became a hit. The campaign has raised more than eighty thousand dollars in Kickstarter and is working towards to reach just as much in Indiegogo currently. “You must have a large audience waiting to buy, you cannot expect an organic audience to purchase.” Jamstack is the world’s first attachable guitar amplifier that is not only lightweight but sounds incredible with an unlimited number of effects you can connect directly to your smartphone.
