JamPlug FM

Turn Any FM Radio Into A Guitar Amplifier

To build a miniature practice aid that plugs into the output jack of an electric guitar or bass, and that transmits a radio signal that lets any nearby FM stereo receiver become an on-demand amplifier. Make it so that the signal is strong and clean, and so that a musician can take advantage of any stereo system, at home or in a vehicle, for use as an impromptu practice amp.

The same tiny size as our original JamPlug miniature guitar amplifier, the JamPlug FM replaces the built-in amp function of the earlier product with a strong, clean FM radio transmitter. It lets you use any FM radio receiver as an on-demand guitar amplifier. In your car or truck, with a boombox at the beach or school, with any home stereo system, the JamPlug FM reliably transmits the signal from your electric guitar of bass, so that the stereo system picks it up and plays it.
