Paper Jamz guitars come in several different styles. Each style comes with three different songs that you can be played. They’re really thin toy guitars that are made of conductive cardboard, making them touch sensitive and responsive.

As seen in the video, although the guitar itself has built-in speakers, the sound that comes from them is tinny, so an amp may also be purchased separately.

So you can mix and match the guitar, guitar strap, and amp in styles exactly how your children want them, so there will be no confusion or fighting over which guitar is whose if you need to purchase more than one of them for your kids.
