Best Tuning App Ever
MaddProfessor
“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.”

Doug SahmSir Douglas Quintet

Intro 1
D
Verse 1
D
There was a little boy
that grew up in a little park
in San Antonio, Texas
A
He was a little man, only five years old
D
G
He got his chance to sing on the ra dio
D
And he knew from the time
A
D
he'd be a rock 'n 'roll man
But as his boy got older
G
He found out, he said, man,
D
I'd like to sing with soul
Maybe I can find someone to record me
A
And maybe just once more
D
You grow up fast in Texas
And you've got to lay it down
G
Or you'll be looking for somebody
A
D
Way across town
Before I got older
You found a group and went
down to Houston
Well, there was this Cajun man
A
that knew rock and roll
D
He knew the boy had something
Dm
D
G
that night in Houston
D
A
D
And all the boys set out to find that gold
All through the time
the boys came up to San Antonio
We found, we found, we found,
A
we found that we had a groove
D
The boys all looked down
A
G
and Armie keeps trying and his thing
D
And old Johnny Harvey
A
keep a -workin' with the groove
D
Blow your horn now,
Frankie, blow your horn
Well, the time rolled around 1965
When two Scorpio boys said,
Man, we gotta make it
A
and get out of here someday
D
So we got the band,
we worked the groove,
G
drove to Houston that night
D
A
D
Let it down, one, two, three, four, bingo
We weren't just that too old
when we left San Antonio
We got on the plane,
was going to TV
A
in New York, the heart of Baloo
D
The boys from the country,
G
they thought we was all from Manchester
D
I guess nobody stopped
A
D
to look at what we're gonna say
Well the times rolled on
and everybody kept in the play
A
G
And we got in this new thing
that we're playing today
D
We'd like to thank you one and all,
in the words of this song
A
We're just some poor boys
D
tryin' to play the rock and roll
Here we go
Just the rock and roll
Hello, baby
As they played and played
and played and played

Well-Designed App
Rose the Black Cat
“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
Tuliketsune
“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 🙂”
Secret weapon
Brad
“Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!”
Very reliable tuner
theNewPaul
“This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!”
This is the best guitar tuner ever.
Caleb Schafli
“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.”
Great to tune and play
