    s 

    He would 
    call 
    it Hard 
    Rock 

    'Cos 
    the body's 
    made 
    of steel 

    On

    a

    shaped 
    charm

    brown 
    leather 
    case, 

    with 
    green 
    velvet 
    linin' 

    It thrilled 
    my soul 
    to 

    the core 

    Stuck 
    on 
    the side 
    with old 

    scotch 
    tape 

    Was 
    a list 
    of the songs 

    he's famous 
    for

    an' 

    unshed 
    tears 

    Booker
    's guitar 
    rings

    The late

    his 
    heart 

    Everyone 
    who heard 
    him 

    knows 
    it's 
    true 

    He'd spank 
    that 
    shiny 
    guitar 

    just 
    like 
    a drum

    the Mississippi 
    Delta,

    too

      Best Tuning App Ever

      "

      I’ve downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

      I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

      Got me back into playing

      I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.
