Electric Expression: Inspiring Creativity in Jazz Band

Help me give my students an Ibanez Hollow Body Electric Guitar to help them explore various styles of music while expanding their creativity in Jazz Band.

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Jenkins's classroom raised $738

This project is fully funded

My Project

The Ibanez hollow body electric guitar will give students the opportunity to learn new techniques, explore various styles, and experience the unique tone and feel this type of instrument offers.

This guitar will serve several purposes within our program.

Most importantly, it will give students the chance to play an instrument with the sound and style of the music they’re eager to study—especially jazz. Its warm, rich tone is ideal for ensemble work and will inspire creativity and confidence in our jazz band setting. This guitar will help unlock their musicianship, spark creative expression, and support a more diverse and well-rounded music program.
