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.

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...

Very clean and well thought-out showing of CAGED system of scales/modes. Isolating each position/mode is much cleaner than the clutter of having every single note on the entire fretboard annotated, like with most guitar apps. Doesn't try to do everything -- it just does one thing very well.

Just beginning to learn scales so really useful. No natural minor scale diagrams or am i missing something? Thanks for prompt reply. I use this app every day in my practice. Brilliant!

Yes, natural minor is the Aeolian mode of the major scale. You can find it in the major scale modes section. Thank you!
