Ratings and reviews

My friend, this app is pure gold, however, it would be better if this metal guitar licks could have the same settings and options as the blues one, the possibility to change the key of the tone for example. Thanks for this wonderful app!!

awesome for practice. The licks here are a real workout but sound great. obviously it requires you to put in the time but I do usually 30 mins a day, 15 on this and 15 on other stuff but my speed has improved so much, I'm playing 300% faster according to my metronome!

I had been playing for over 20 years then five months ago, I finally picked up an electric that inspired me to get to the next level. I checked out MANY other apps, but this one delivered exactly what I needed.
