Fret Zeppelin LED Guitar Display

Learning the strings just got easy with the Fret Zeppelin LED Guitar Display. Effortlessly attaching to your guitar, this device lights up to show you where to place your fingers. Whether you’re a total newbie or you know your way around the axe, this device will improve your ability. The full spectrum LED system also has different levels so it can help you improve each step of the way. This will help you learn and memorize your chords with ease. In addition, Fret Zeppelin can teach you to complete quicker transitions so you can play even faster. The Fret Zeppelin system remains compact to not get in the way. In fact, it’s less than half the height of your frets. It works with virtually any guitar, acoustic or electric. Finally, it pairs with an app so you can tune your guitar, visualize the chords, learn tabs, and even freestyle.

Review from Kickstarter

@Phoenix Down Recording - we're sorry to hear that! Are you emailing support@FretZealot.com? We respond quickly through that email channel. Your issue is very likely where the cable connects to the control box and is thankfully and easy fix. Our cable manufacturer made an unauthorized change and caused some cases where the cable isn't actually making contact inside the control box (hence the perceived sensitivity). Shoot us an email and we'll get you a replacement ASAP! We want you to be able to get back to playing songs :-).

My Fret Zealot Worked For about a day before kicking the bed. Now it only works .001% as you have to get just the right angle and its fragile. When it worked it was amazing. Having trouble contacting Customer Support. Can't Wait to get a fix though. the song feature is just so cool. lots of potential here.

@Tony Enns - that doesn't make sense. There's a simple solution here. Can you please email support@FretZealot.com with pictures so we can help you out? The perfect fit will be on guitars with a 24.75" scale length (common with Gibson and Epiphone), but no LED will go on top of a fret unless you have a scale length greater than 25.5"

Review from Kickstarter

I finally opened the box- very nicely packaged. I fitted the unit on the neck, dry and pealed the tape only to find out it really didn't fit next to each fret, some were right in the middle of the frets. I tried over 8 guitars, Fender, Squier, Epiphone, EVH, Ibanez acoustic and electrics and more brands. (I sell guitars) not one guitar fit. Now it will go into the garbage as it will not stick anymore, a waste. what guitar was this made for?

@Kaina - very soon! We're just testing the public uploader now. There's a great deal of work being done to make sure songs get versioned correctly :-). In the meantime, if your file is for an existing song, please email support@FretZealot.com and we'll make it a priority to get it uploaded!

Review from Kickstarter

@Thomas - We can send you a CE certification PDF via email if you email us at support@FretZealot.com, but that shouldn't be necessary. CE certification is printed on the package, as is Bluetooth (which we've registered with the Bluetoogh SIG). Fret Zealot does not use WiFi, so that's no an issue. For the Bluetooth wireless transmission, though, we registered with the FCC. The FCC ID is printed on the control box between the two screw holes.

Review from Kickstarter

The parcel is stuck at Airport customs since last week.
As it takes longer as normal I exoect there is something missing. An invoice or docunents. Just in preperation: Can you share CE certification and if somewhere stated that Wifi or Bluetooth used I need also accaptance of the Bundesnetzagentur (German Goverment for communicstion) Thx

@Grayson King - great to hear and thank you for your ongoing support and feedback :-) More inventory has arrived! Any and all remaining orders have either shipped or will ship out on Monday. There are a tiny handful of orders with shipping address errors, but we have likely already contacted you about that if you're one of those few :-).

Review from Kickstarter

My replacement works well, I’m still getting the spine peeling away, but the fret sections are fine I’m worried the stickiness won’t last long if it’s always exposed to air along the spine section though Already contacted support, gave some feedback on the app too but wanted to comment here cos I’ve found this team really deals with the issues and takes your satisfaction as paramount and I respect this massively ( ར ₹, ཬ )

Matching it up with a Joyo Dualklonz amp.....*drool*......working on my playlist of songs to learn, like Personal Jesus which I'm listening to right now. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

@Thomas - thousands of people have received their Fret Zealots. We just emailed you a few minutes ago with the latest news from the latest production run, so we're surprised that you posted this comment after we took the time to send you a genuine message with specific details. We understand you're upset, but please don't spread false information. As per the regular updates, we're incredibly frustrated that we can't get enough inventory to keep up with orders. Please read the updates section to see more details.

Thomas

Review from Kickstarter

This product doesn't exist. That's why no one has received it. It's a scam.

@Thomas - happy to take a look! If you email support@FretZealot.com our team will look at your information and let you know exactly what the status of your order is :-)

@Nicolas - we actually don't have any record of you contracting us, so we're sorry about unintentionally not responding! We always respond with a business day or two. Someone will message you via the Kickstarter platform today :-) As for updates, they have been regular in the updates section. Please check out that section to see pictures and specific dates for shipping (now) and app related updates.

Review from Kickstarter

I was a backer and haven't received my product yet. I've also not received any updates on the situation, bar vague group updates here. I've had no assurances that I will be receiving the product. I've emailed support@FretZealot.com twice with no response. I would like to personally known when I'm receiving the product. Your customer service seems to have delays judging by the other comments here. Sort it out.

Hello Fret Zealot. Well I have the same issue as some with the glued part becoming undone. Is there anything you can do?

Edge Tech Labs

Review from Kickstarter

@kelly - yep no problem. It was our mistake sending it early, so we'll send you a replacement. We've received your support ticket through support@FretZealot.com and will respond shortly there :-). @Mark - sorry for the delay on that. One of our customer service agents had a question for the hardware team before they responded. We've now since updated our policy to at least let you know that we're checking on something while you wait :-)
