openchord.org, LLC

openchord.org’s goal is to make playing guitar-based video games a deeper and more fulfilling experience. the idea is simple: instead of playing these games and getting really good at pressing plastic buttons, why not build something that will at least make us better at pressing strings on a real guitar? with our products, instead of pressing buttons on a guitar-shaped piece of plastic, you press real strings on the guitar, and strum with a real pick. our technology also allows you to easily customize how the guitar responds to fingerings, allowing you to develop actual guitar skills while playing video games. of course, learning how to play guitar is going to require more work than just playing frets on fire, but when practicing chord transitions and learning note positions, our guitars can make boring, repetitive practice actually fun. n addition, we’re committed to the ideals of open source (that’s the open part of openchord), and hope that people find our projects and modify them t
