It's like Simon says
Hoot_On_Root

There are a few good features but overall it's Simon Says for the Bass Guitar. It goes to fast to really learn it. No pause and it doesn't give you the real notes. If you just want to fool around its ok but I was hoping for a follow along to learn songs.


Won't make a sound!

Works great but half the time when I go into it won't make a sound! Other than that works great!

If there's anyway to stop the freezing up, shutting down and other little bugs, this would be a great app!

It's a really cool app, but the app only teaches you the main bass lines to songs. Which is good because it teaches cool bass lines but I would like to know the rest of each song. The app only gives you the first 25 bass songs which stinks because you have to buy the rest of the songs which are way better then the 25 songs they give. The app is also very easy to understand and teaches you the lines easily. Good app n general but some minor flaws.
