Try the What The CHORD Board Today! (Interactive Demo Inside)
Hey Reader, Big Update - it's finally here! It took some time to build it, but I wanted you to experience this firsthand: I’ve just released a working demo of What The CHORD Board™ — a new way to see, hear, and soon feel the fretboard like never before. It’s still early. I’m preparing for Kickstarter. But now you can slide through 5 keys and experience the system directly — just like the real board will feel. 👉 Try the interactive demo here: www.whatthechord.com/boarddemo This early prototype lets you get a real feel for how the final version will work: ✅ Works on both mobile and desktop ✅ No login - just drag the slider and explore! ✅ Demo includes 5 keys: C, Db, D, Eb, and E Major This tool took months of design, testing, and iteration — and now II'd love to know: What would make this even better? What would help you most as a guitarist? I’m already testing a working handmade prototype, and your feedback will help shape the final design before I move to production. So go ahead, dive in and try it out — and let me know what you think! Thank you so much for being here with me. Gratefully, Vedran P.S. Want the haptic feedback (vibration) too? Try the Mobile Simulator directly on Instagram - swipe through keys and feel it in action. You can also leave a comment and share your experience there. I'd really love to hear from you! |

Hi Reader! A brand-new guitar arrived the other day in the studio — the Donner HUSH-I Pro (Hawaiian Blue edition) — and today I posted a full unboxing + sound test on YouTube. I was honestly surprised by how good this thing looks in person, and the plugged-in tone is better than I expected for a travel/silent guitar. If you’re curious what comes in the box and how it sounds straight out of the package, check it out here: 👉 Watch the video In the video I go through: 🎁 unboxing 🔧 quality +...
How did the modes got their names? This short animated video reveals the ancient origins of the modal scale names - who named them and how they evolved through time. Today's modes are nothing like the original ones (which were more theoretical and tuning-focused), but medieval church scholars kept the same names because... well, they sounded cool? More likely, they simply lacked alternatives. By then, the original Greek modal frameworks had fallen out of common use - so they were "free to...
Hello my friend! I got back in the studio with fresh new.. well, everything! I got my new studio fully operational, and just in the right time: Guitar making company Donner reached out to me the other day and asked me to test out their new guitar, the HUSH I PRO Hawaiian Blue - a beauty! The model is still not even released to the public (it will be on November 20th) but I got my hands on it, it was shipped all the way from China ahead of their official release. Their new HUSH line comes...
