Customer Reviews
Game Changer
I've been a subscriber to this app for over a year and can't stress enough how helpful it has been to me. I've played guitar for a long time and my skill set has expanded faster in this last year than it has in the last 5-10 years. The hosts are diverse and are typically great instructors. With this latest update and the addition of the new in-app sets for purchase I feel like it's been elevated to the next level. I will continue to subscribe to this app as long it's around. Can't say enough about it! Good job Guitar World & Agile Partners. This is the best guitar based app available.
Wow
This is an amazing app! I love the user friendly interface and how the instructors take you through the lick. Then you can go and see exactly how to play it with the notation and they also give tips on how to play it. Just an amazing app!
Very nice
Lots of licks for subscribers, and some are even provided free!
