As of Sept 1st, by the decision of the U.S. President Donald Trump, his latest executive order has suspended the "de minimis" duty free threshold of USD $800 on everything shipped to the U.S.A.
We have decided to keep our Music Stamp prices fixed, but have had to increase our shipping fees to cover these extra U.S. tariffs and border fees.
This now means that as of Aug 31st 2025, there are additional up front fees to be paid by the Music Stamps before shipping any stamps. The first is a 35% tariff on any and all packages from Canada to the U.S.A., plus an additional $5.00 U.S. Homeland and Border Control fee, to be paid to the IEEPA (International Emergency Economic Powers). Once fees have been paid through the ZONUS app, to U.S border services, we then provide electronic barcode proof to allow shipping of your order.
We appreciate your valued business and understanding of this current shipping situation,

TESTIMONIALS Andy Aledort: World-renowed guitarist, respected educator, and longtime contributor to many magazines such as Guitar World says: "I have found the Music Stamp products like the MSG-NN 5-fret no-nut chord frame stamp and the MST-G tablature stamp to be indispensable in both teaching applications and when annotating my own musical ideas. The stamps are quick and easy to use as well as very dependable." Sid Jacobs: Head of Jazz Program (GIT), Guitar Institute Technology, Hollywood, CA says: "The MusicStamp is a great tool for students and teachers alike as an aid for visualizing the fingerboard. Using the stamp where you need it on the music gives you the freedom to effectively organize your ideas. There are already pages with fretboard diagrams pre-printed but these are not efficient if what you are doing doesn't conform to the layout of the page. The flexibility the MusicStamp allows makes it the best tool of its type I have seen for this aspect of teaching, taking notes, or jotting down your own musical ideas. You can also use less paper making it a green alternative to wasting paper. ...All the best, Sid Jacobs, Head of Jazz Program (GIT)" Wolf Marshall: World famous Guitarist/Educator/Author of countless music transcription books, Founder of "Guitar One" magazine says: "I use the Music Stamp fretboard stamp often in my private teaching and in preparing diagrams for professional publication. The self-inking capability and the ease of application are my favorite features. It has withstood years of use and continues to work perfectly. I recommend the product to anyone interested in having quick and easy access to fretboard blanks." Jody Fisher: Associate Director of the National Guitar Summer Workshop's California and Nashville Campus, faculty member of the University of La Verne Teacher says: "You don't know how long I've looked for a high quality set of stamps like this. They seem perfect for my purposes. These would come in handy in my teaching of course, but also when I work on the first drafts for my publications. Both guitar stamps look great and I think the standard notation stamp is an excellent idea and very useful. Seriously, I think you have a very good product and I am happy to endorse these products. Sure would have come in handy about 20 books and a million students ago........" John
Morgan: World Class Guitarist covering all styles, founder of the
highly popular on-line full service guitar instructional site www.playtheguitar.com
says: "After using this little gem for a while your reaction
will be like mine, "Hooray, no more wiggly lines" and "Where
have you been all my life?" A "must" for guitar teachers;
a great convenience for serious students. This is a very handy tool
for quickly laying down fretboard diagrams. We want to spend time
playing the guitar, and thus how good of a player would I be if I
hadn't spent so much time drawing fretboard diagrams! Thanks for coming
up with such a cool and useful product!" Read

Alisdair MacRae Birch (http://www.alisdair.com/): British Jazz Guitarist/Bassist/Teacher/Arranger, founder of the Jazz Guitar Discussion Group, http://www.jazzguitargroup.com says: "A student of mine gave me a MSG-1 Guitar Stamp as a present and it has proved invaluable in my teaching, enabling me to save time and stamp diagrams with ease. I particularly like how easy it is to use and that it's self inking, which means that it is truly portable. It has proved useful in quickly notating chord melody arrangements and providing visual diagrams for standard notated music. All in all, a great product which works, from a company with a good website which is clear, easy to navigate and which makes ordering a breeze, period!" Levon Ichkhanian (http://www.levonmusic.com) says: "The Music Stamp Series stamps are a creation long in need. They are clean, concise, and come in a variety of patterns. You will benefit from them no matter what instrument you play!" Chase
Sanborn (www.chasesanborn.com)
World Renowned Trumpeter says: "I use the trumpet fingering
stamp and the staff notation stamp. The ability to quickly and easily
notate a short musical phrase is very handy. The Music Stamps
are very unique and useful items for teachers." Michael La††anzi: Producer, Music Stamp User says: "Every time I would pick up my guitar to write a
song, I loved the whole process until it came time to notate the chords. It would take forever to draw my
own fretboard diagrams and I found myself wasting precious creative moments just making sure that my self
drawn chord charts would be legible for when I would have to recall them and re-create my chord voicings!
Then I was fortunate enough to see an advertisement in a local music store flyer for The Music Stamp Series! Jeff Salem: Educator, Clinician, Author - operating his own teaching school, and Music Stamp User says: "The new
drum stamp is a great tool for drum teachers and students. The parts of the drum kit are laid out for you, so it's easy and quick to create
and write out your own grooves and fills. This unique stamp will help you save on staff paper and have your work look consistent every time. Stamp away and groove on." Mike Sorrentino, Drum Stamp User says: "The music stamp is a great way to write down those quick ideas -
and have them be something you can actually read the next day! It makes it easy to get those thoughts on paper legibly and accurately, in a format suited for drummers." CUSTOMER COMMENTS "As a teacher, I love your product!" - Paul Gelpi, USA "The stamp arrived this morning! Thank you very much for such excellent service. I can't have it to use yet because it's for my birthday on the 18th. My worries that it would not arrive in time were unfounded. I will be back in touch when I need further supplies. Many thanks again for exceeding my expectations." - Regards, Harris Northover, U.K "I received my stamp yesterday and I couldn't be more pleased! I will be ordering more in the near future." - John Schick, USA
"Robert,
The stamp arrived Saturday. It works like a charm! It will come in
handy for my praise music at church. Thanks again,"
"Robert,
Thanks very much for the thank-you e-mail reply. It's much appreciated
when a merchant thanks a person for their business as you have done.
This along with the ease of the process has made this a very pleasant
shopping experience. Thanks again." "Robert, I had a bit of a traumatic week last week. As one of my students was packing up her books and papers after her lesson she inadvertently picked up my fretboard stamper. A few minutes into the next lesson I realized what had happened. Thus began a week of squiggly, hand-drawn fretboard diagrams eliciting many humorous comments from my students, many of whom had never seen one of my hand drawn diagrams. The best comment was, "that looks a little like a Picasso with some kind of 3-dimensional thing going on." Fortunately I survived the week and the stamper came back home. The universe in once again in balance. Thanks for making an indispensable product." - John Morgan, USA "Just a quick e-mail to
say thanks for the great service - received the music stamp. I will be purchasing again soon. Thanks!!" |
