If you have children who are interested in playing the guitar or the drums, then Paper Jamz are sure to be a huge hit at your house. It’s unbelievable what technology has been able to accomplish when you look at these innovative pieces of musical equipment. The guitars and drums sets that are made by Paper Jamz are the creative mixture of technology using something called Active Graphics Technology.

This particular technology allows for circuit embedded paper which enables you to play the guitar or the drums like a professional just by touching the surface of the paper. There are several different varieties of guitars and drums sets as well as speaker amplifiers. Each guitar contains three modes for rocking out.

The first mode is called Perfect Play which allows you to play the guitar perfectly using three included hit songs. Each guitar comes preloaded with three different songs so you can buy multiple guitars and have a variety of tunes to choose from. It also has a Rhythm mode which allows you to control the guitar rhythm for each of the songs are playing. There is also a Freestyle mode which allows you to play real chords and create your own songs. You can also go into the Karaoke style which will allow you to sing and play along with the three included songs.

If you buy multiple Paper Jamz instruments, you can actually synchronize them so that they play the included songs together just like a real band would. Each instrument comes with a built-in speaker to control the volume as well as a line out for earphones and other speaker accessories which are not included.

Made by Wow Wee, the Paper Jamz instruments come in a variety of different styles depending on what kind of band you want to create. Some of the guitars look more like hard rockers while others are more generic guitars. The drum sets are not full size drum sets. Rather, they sit flat on a table and you can play them with your hands while getting the exact sound you would get out of a real drum set.

If you want to go all out, you can buy an instant rock star guitars set which includes a complete set of six guitars. There are also other bundles which will include guitar, guitar strap, the drum set and an amplifier. There’s no question that Paper Jamz are very popular for a variety of reasons. First of all, the technology is amazing when you see that you can actually play genuine sounding music on a paper thin guitar. Secondly, the prices very reasonable with each guitar retailing for around $25.
