    Use it almost every day. Great app
    Sounds work great on my new iphone 5 and ipad iOS6. This is the best app for guitarists. Completely brilliant. The must have app for any one playing a guitar. This app has it all and easy to use. I got the free All Guitar Chords and decide to get this. Well worth the money. Show more

    ?Disappointed
    No sound on the tune!!! Just 6 fret to place your fingers on the reverse chord... And you cannot move the fret to make a barre. At this time the free APP is much better !!! Show more

    Best reference app
    I think this is the best chord / scale reference app out there. I also love the reverse chord finder and custom tuning.

    Need to enable landscape view for iPad
    Good app, but inconvenient interface. I don't use portrait view at all. Your specs out to warn of that shortcoming.

    Nice app
    Very useful but badly needs a landscape support

    Disappointing
    Okay as a visual reference, though I prefer Guitar Toolkit, which I find to be a much better reference app even though it's not specifically designed for the iPad. But the fatal flaw for Guitarist's Reference is the huge delay between touching a string and hearing the sound/note. Makes it unusable. Hope this is fixed in a future update or this was just money wasted. Show more

    What a Great App!!!!
    Wow!! I've been playing guitar for a number of years and this app has taught me so much within the one week I've had it about so many different chords I never would have gotten. To all those who want to buy the app, if you're a serious guitarist or guitar student, you'd focus on the great help you're getting and not silly things like landscape view... This is, hands down THE best guitar learning app out there. Show more

    Good, but needs updates
    The app contains lots of useful info and I've benefitted from it but hopefully in the next update they'll add: Landscape view for iPad Alternate tuning cords and scales If youre looking for these, don't purchase until ykou see they've been added in update notes... Show more

    It's All In There
    Very nicely done. A guitarist reference resource with just about everything included.
  • Erhie, 15.04.2011
    Little disappointed, needs improvements
    Yeah it shows chords, scales and arpeggios in all keys. But what I don't like about this app is that there is some delay time from when you strike the note and when you hear it. I'm a bit disappointed that a $6 app has this flaw. It doesn't have settings for different guitar sounds either. That would have been nice. It do't think it's worth it. Especially because there are other apps that do the same for less. Show more

    Guitarists ref
    I want my money back! It claims to support alternate tunings when in fact it does no more than acknowledge their existence. There is no support for the product either, if I could rate no stars, I would! Show more

    Needs Work & Support
    I tried their free apps and they seemed pretty good, but missed the sound feature. So I bought it, and the sound feature doesn't seem to work. I tried to go to the web site of maj9.com to look for assistance, but both links in iTunes, and entering the URL manually, just try to load iTunes to take you to one of these pages with no other information than the app advertisements. It has some really good features, but I recommend you stick with the free separate apps until they fix this one and provide some support for their product. Show more

    Hands down best reference/learning tool for guitar!!
    This App continues to get better and more useful. This gives you the ability to overlay a chords notes over a particular scale...highly useful for those trying to improvise solo's. Hands down...best guitar app out there!! Made by the same company as Guitar Chords app and Guitar Scales app....this combines both apps, provides the same graphics, a bit more functionality and much better layout. With both the Guitar Scales and Chords apps, you can only see 6 frets...GR let's you see 15 frets of the neck at once! This is another huge benefit when trying to visualize all the scale forms on the neck. FEATURE REQUEST: One thing that I haven't seen any apps provide are fingerings for slash chords, such as D/F# or Ab/A. Not quite sure how you could integrate that, but those chords appear quite a bit in music, but are almost altogether left out of all the apps, I've seen. That would be my only suggestion for now... FYI... I seem to enter into a loop when trying to access the developer page....goes to website, opens, iTunes, then brings me back to the App store. Show more

    Excellent app
    This is the best designed and most useful of the many guitar apps I have found paid or free.
  • InTheWalk, 06.02.2011
    Stiff price for no landscape
    Needs landscape k
  • Xarkon, 02.01.2011
    Good but needs more
    Good reference for a variety of chords and scales. However, it is missing the G major forms from the CAGED sequence. (The variations may be missing as well, just have not looked yet.) Would be nice to have a comparison mode to show how variations are built (or differ) from the basic form. I.e. to go from major to dominant 7th to major seventh to minor seventh...here are the four variants next to each other, based on the same form. Recommended, but these other features would add tremendously to the usefulness of this app. Show more
