What You Get In The Product.
1. Video training.
Jamplay.com provides over 4,500 video guitar lessons in high definition with more than 10 hours of content released every month. With the amount of instructors present in the company, I see this as very easy to achieve.
Like the product hear and play, you will get beginner guitar lessons, Genre lessons to help you focus on a specific genre of music you like and many many song lessons, so you can finally learn to play your favorite songs on your guitar. The lessons are filmed in real music studios to produce a high quality product with great sound and video.

Conclusions
Overall, Jamplay.com looks like a good serious product with a long time presence on the online guitar lessons market. We like the fact that the business is BBB accredited and takes online security very seriously.
The sheer amount of instructors and content available to learners is respectable and can only be achieved with years and years of work. We found the customer service to be up to par too.
Responses to our questions and queries were received quickly within a day or 2. Getting answers to your questions can make the difference to you not quitting and giving up when you hit a road-block.
The big community will make this worthwhile especially for beginners. While we don’t like the short 7 day money back guarantee, it is more than enough to look inside the program and know if you want to continue or not.
I hope we helped you have a quick look at what Jamplay can offer you in this review.
