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.”

Verse 1
C
The gilt- edged
invitation came
F
And I said, "What can this mean,
C
To attend the coronation
As the first guest of the Queen,
F
G
And sit upon her right hand
F
Where the Prince is mostly seen?"
C
The maids of honour stared at me
And register surprised
To see a man of such good taste
Appear before their eyes
G
Now being rather humble
F
I adopted a disguise
G
As the Minister of State
F
For Mass Environment Controls,
G
Who condemn the working classes
F
For inhabiting the holes
G
That belong to Queen and Country,
C
G
But do not permit their souls
C
G
To be free like me.

The

perspex chandelier
F
C
Began to melt and slip away;
One million candle- powered
F
It kept the night at bay.
G
While the power station workers
F
Were busy making hay,
C
The workers in the fields
Were engaged in self- defence,
Which involved the use of barbed wire
As a self- containing fence,
G
But as a means of self- protection
F
It was needlessly immense.
G
I stopped to ask them for a light,
F
They pointed at the sun,
G
Which raised their hopes of harvesting
F
A better crop than guns
G
Can ever mass- produce
At the expense of anyone
C
G
Who is free like me.

solitary
peasant
F
In his home above the lake,
C
Raised high on woooden stilts,
Has made the singular mistake
G
Of revolutionary conduct
F
At the celebration wake.
C
His urban counterpart,
Engaged in mundane occupation,
Enjoys the chance of laughing
At the Queen's humiliation
F
G
At the hands of Ministers of State
F
For Rehabilitation,
G
Now the power station worker,
F
Though his aim is too disjointed,
G
Finds himself around the corner;
F
While his gun is never pointed,
G
He is ever at the ready,
He desires to be anointed
C
F
G
C
And be free like me.

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
Lynae T
“I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.”
