very good

Great 100% best 1$ of ur life. only problem is the targets are small

I have had this app for many years - iPhone 4, iPhone 5s, and now, on my iPhone 7 Plus - it still works! What I like most is being able to change the tunings to experiment - especially open tunings and even “custom tuning”. With built- in effects, it can real wail (reverb, distortion)! You can hold and bend notes, etc. Great sustain. Fun to jam on - especially when you don’t have a guitar handy. You want chords? Play chords. This is for guitarists - not a “toy”. You have all 6 strings and 7 frets - strum or hammer-on or both. Seems to work well with the larger sized screen of my 7 plus. I hold it just like a guitar. Crazy!

I just wanted an app that allowed me to play on a guitar. You can't really play like you would be able to a real guitar, but I can write basic riffs on it. It also allows you to change the tuning you're playing in. You can change the strings individually too. It's got a guitar, bass, uke, and some pedals with effects like wah, distortion, and echo. If that's what you're looking for, this app is perfect.

needs love for leftys!!

I've gotten so many people turned onto this app, I'm known as the dude that rocks the iphone guitar app. <br/><br/>I can shred the bass with my video-game style thumb tapping, just turn off strumming. Turn hammer notes off and stretch the frets. It's way easier for solos

Using iOS 7, clicked &quot;UPDATE ALL&quot; and am now stuck with a non-working app. Quick question, why release this update if you knew it had stability issues? I bought this app WAY back when it came out. And am now stuck with an icon, crashes upon opening. I'd also update that first picture so it's no longer an iPhone 3G being used.<br/><br/>Fix all MAJOR known bugs before pushing out an update. This is just unacceptable.

This is a visually pretty guitar app with decent sounds and even some playability. I’m amazed it’s still on the App Store and not broken by iOS updates.<br/><br/>However: It’s never going to be like a real guitar. You have to play with it from the perspective of knowing and accepting this. The menus are clumsy (tiny targets, and you have to hold &amp; drag, like the behavior of classic Mac OS 7 and earlier menus).<br/><br/>Also, as of today (January 6th, 2020), I’m noticing note fluctuation bugs. I have to restart the app to get it to stop doing this. It seems to be some mode that particular samples get stuck in where it flips back and forth between the normal sustained note sample and something else (maybe a different sample or playback rate). I assume this is due to iOS changes because it never did this to me before (though I don’t use the app much at all, I think I would’ve noticed it years ago if it happens this quickly in a session of use).<br/><br/>It’s kind of an iOS classic, and it still works, but it could stand to be updated.
