About this app

FretBuzz is an application for learning scales and arpeggios on guitar and bass guitar.

It is focused on CAGED system and learning individual "shapes" for all the below listed arpeggios and scales.

Triads
Seventh and Sixth Chords
Pentatonic Scales
Blues Scales
Major Scale Modes
Melodic Minor Scale Modes
Harmonic Minor Scale Modes
Bebop Scales
Diminished Scales
Whole Tone Scales

The application has a lefty option for left handed guitar and bass players.
The application has support for six string guitar, four string bass guitar and five string bass guitar.

This application is like a Volume I to my application "FretBuzz Augmented" which utilizes scales and arpeggios in common jazz progressions.

For further questions about this application or about CAGED system you can contact me via my developer account.

Thank you.

Ratings and reviews

This is a straight forward and well designed app. Perfect for guitar, 4 and 5 string bass to understand fretboard patterns derived from the CAGED system. I have noticed some mistakes though, especially when looking at modes... or perhaps I'm over thinking it or wanting it to be something else. When comparing relative major and minor modes for example C major and A minor, they show the same shape but they are labeled differently, the C shape should always be C shape regardless, correct?

Great app.. it's very helpful. I just wish there were a setting that would show the scales in alternate tunings. I mostly play in Dropped-D so this would make things so much easier for me. And maybe a view of the scales across the whole fretboard instead of just the boxes. If you could do that I would rate the app 5-stars...

Hi, love your apps. Purchased a number of them. Just a suggestion, I think it would be great if there's a mode where two caged shape can be viewed at the same time especially when viewing major/minor scales(for example view both C and A shape together) - I believe this is pretty useful when practicing mixing them together.
