If you\u2019ve ever wanted in-person guitar lessons, but been put off by the expense, you might be swayed by Samsung<\/a>\u2019s latest proposition.<\/p>\n

The brand has partnered with the guitar company Fender to bring the Fender Play app to Samsung TVs.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Players can choose a path for four different instruments: electric guitar, acoustic guitar, bass or ukulele. You can then select courses based on your skill level, which feature step-by-step lessons built around familiar songs, from 99 Red Balloons by Nena to The Jungle Book\u2019s Bare Necessities.<\/p>\n

The Jam Mode feature also lets players select a \u201cfun\u201d background and play along with curated tracks from a variety of genres, to turn \u201ctheir screen into a stage\u201d.<\/p>\n

President of the Fender Play Foundation, Cliff Kim, adds that the addition is designed to help \u201cguitar enthusiasts take their skills to the next level\u201d and give them the \u201copportunity to learn, practice, and play\u201d.<\/p>\n

Samsung says that the app will be available on its TVs in 2026 \u2013 although the exact release date is not yet confirmed. It will first be available on Samsung\u2019s 2026 line-up of smart TVs, and will roll out to select older models through a software update.<\/p>\n

This partnership follows on from Fender’s latest venture into the hi-fi and AV world, as it released its first consumer headphones and speakers<\/a> earlier this month.<\/p>\n
