Scale and chords are shown in positions or all notes, covering the fretboard in any key. Notes can be displayed showing the letter name, interval and fingering. Chords and scales can be played at the same time allowing you to hear how a scale sounds played over a chord. Play scales/chords by swiping strings; direction determines low/high or high/low playback.

Practice scales using the scale playback loop. Play along with one octave or the full scale position. Playback speed is adjustable allowing you to start slow and speed up as you master each scale position.

Learn scales by playing along with five patterns that cover the fretboard for each scale. Scale positions correspond to the popular CAGED system. The CAGED system chord shape for the current position of a scale is displayed to help you learn and remember scale positions in any key.

Reviews

Intervals!
I am John Macaws

Such a great up to learn intervals and scale degrees as well as the notes an caged System that helps you navigate the fretboard. -love that you are able to print PDFs of each scale if you’re a guitar instructor or for practicing scales. I recommend this app to any guitarist out and it’s great to have because your phone is with you where ever you go.. gigs shows jam sessions.


It’s worth it

I am loving this app! I’ve searched and searched to find an app with all of this info. This app has replaced several other apps I was using to learn scales, circle of fifths, intervals, etc. This truly is the Swiss Army knife of guitar learning apps. Thank you very very much for building this app. Great job!

Amazingly thorough.

This is, as far as I can see, a fantastic reference for guitar scales and chords. If you have an iPad or iPhone, it may very well replace books! I am very impressed!


Excellent
Heck Rocks

This app is a great help in learning scales, chords and which ones work together. It is very easy to use, sounds great and has a lot of scales and chords. Showing the CAGED system chord shapes for the scale position is very helpful in learning the scale positions covering the whole fretboard. Awesome!!!


Love the update!
JaydenSimon

Love the new PDF's of Scale positions. This app is unique to its competitors. I would highly recommend this app to anyone interested in playing guitar.


So helpful, great developer support
Honus2011

No more paper chord and scale books or killing trees to print them. This app is easy to use, quick to reference, and visually easy to follow. And the creator is within contact if you have a question. Well worth the small cost. Apps like this make me glad I have an iPad.


The Best
Steveo McSteverton

This app has a wealth of information right there in front of you. Got a question? Well you can find that answer quick. Im self taught and have often wanted to know what my options were. This app gives me just that. Let's me know at a quick glance what chords fit and which chords I can choose from in the selected scale. Get this app now A+++++


Simple and helpful
Schmervis

This is a must have for guitarists at any level. Great for memorizing scale patters, chords and notes on the fretboard. I open it up for five minutes here and there whenever I have downtime and it's really helped me memorize and gradually understand how everything fits together.
