This is a cool guitar app. The interface is nice and easy to use. The chords and diagrams with the sound all together is nice.

It has scales, chords and everything a guitarist could ask for. You can change the tuning which helps. I highly recommend from anyone interested in chord and scale structure for guitar. Show more

This is a great reference tool for any serious guitarist. There is only one feature that could be added: a reverse scale lookup...the ability to tap in a few notes of your favorite riff and see what scales match. Other than that, this app does everything but write the songs for you. Show more

I can use this app but I find it harder to use to just look up a chord, but ok for finding relative chords.

Awesome tool. By far the best reference for guitarists for iPad

But love the reverse chord function

Wont open for ipod 2g!!

The latest update reverts to the flawed interface of much earlier versions. Scroll wheels are okay for choosing between a very few options, but are ill suited to long lists. Worse, this app puts a vast hierarchical list on each wheel. Rather than pick a category with one wheel, and then be taken to another with its members, one is forced to scroll all categories and all members to find what one wants. It's tedious and confusing. The old version was far better, because sheets opened showing all the categories concisely. Tapping one then opened another sheet with just those members. Everything was visible and tappable at a glance, with no annoying wheels showing only five items at a time. Best to delete this and revert to the old version. Prior Review: Vast, Fast Catalog * * * * * Version 4.2 amply delivers on its promise to accellerate all finds. It's insanely fast! When I wrote a detailed eMail to the author stating what was wrong with the interface in version 4.0, he wrote back promising to fix the problem. He did indeed! My message thanking him for version 4.1: "Wow, Khoi; "Thank you! I've been using the new version of Guitarist's Reference and am truly pleased with the button interface. Seemingly millions of chords are all only a few clicks away, in any tuning I want. This is the most comprehensive catalog of guitar chords ever written, far outclassing everything else available." There are a lot of complaints about the app's appearance or the crowding of a few buttons. They are legitimate, but it's obvious at this stage that the developer's strength is in modeling the guitar with a vastly complex engine able to find all possible chords in all inversions in all positions in all tunings. I'd rate this 4.5 stars if I could for the cosmetic faults, but have chosen instead to ignore the trivialities that will not change and just enjoy the superb engine. It is the finest ever created on any platform, period. This is the greatest guitarist's reference in history, inexpensively always available on your iPhone. Show more

The last update totally revamped this app and has turned it into an incredible tool for learning or advancing an already skilled person. Being able to reference chords is good. But when the app ties the chords into scales that go along with it, you get one powerful tool at a great price!  Show more

This is a marvelous app. The revamped interface is much more intuitive and I give the developers kudos for that. It's staggering, really, how much is in this app and how much better it is than its competition. The one thing is that I liked the old icon better. Please change it back! Show more
