    When I first paid for a 3 month subscription I couldn’t actually get access to all content. Bennett worked with me for a few days, I sent proof of payment and they manually opened my account. I couldn’t be happier. I don’t believe there is any better learning tool for banjo available. Highly recommend. Show more

    By far the best app for learning.. well anything.
    I’ve always wanted to play the banjo, I’ve spent months trying YouTube and guitar tabs but this is by far the best in depth app I’ve ever used.

    Musical innovation!!
    As someone who hasn’t played music in several years this app was a perfect way for me to hit the ground running with learning the banjo. After a month of working through the lessons I am feeling more confident in my ability to start playing with a group. The support for this app is top notch. I have mad suggestion to them through email and Facebook and have had great response time and friendly service. They have even implemented one of my suggestions already. There seems to be an active development staff and the Facebook group has been very helpful. The value for the subscription is great when compared to lessons or other online instruction. If you’re thinking about learning a new instrument or just learning bluegrass TuneFox is amazing. Show more

    This is the best tutorial app I’ve ever used
    I’ve tried YouTube videos, tablature apps, even tried slowing down songs to learn banjo, and nothing has done it like TuneFox. Each lesson builds on the last one and before you know it, you’re pickin! Show more

    The 5*
    The best app and software I have found hands down. I struggled a lot with timing and keeping rolls. This software made me a beast at jams and keeps me going. I am addicted and strive to learn every song in this software both banjo and guitar. I love it. I tell all my friends about it also!! Show more

    What I have been missing
    This app has helped me get back into picking up my banjo and guitar. I had continuous frustration and just gave up several times before. This app provides a continuous song loop at various bpm and lick change-outs which has allowed me to figure out melodic vs Scruggs distinction. I wish I had this many years ago!! I can’t wait for more songs and licks to be added. I ask that there be a lick “companion” where you can start composing and it gives you options and variations on what to go on to next. The visual timing on the tab is a huge bonus I also would like to see some Celtic tunes added too, along with Christmas tunes (esp What Child is This). Show more

    Mostly Awesome
    This a great and helpful app. The layout is fantastic, and the ability to switch song segments to pentatonic scales, chromatic, etc. is an unexpected boon. The Lessons are great, but regrettably limited, and don’t take you very far. There are a few things that could be added, for sure, such as expanding the song library to include more than folk/bluegrass music (though I understand that’s the primary genre for the target instruments, mandolin can easily transition to more classical melodies). It would also be nice to switch from numeric tablature to a standard d musical notation (staves and noteheads). All things considered, if you’re learning your instrument for bluegrass or folk, this is the perfect app. And even if you’re not interested in that genre, the mechanics and techniques learned can generally carry over to any other.

    Outstanding value
    What a brilliant learning system to enable a 73 year old to play banjo, this app has brought me a new lease on life. Thank you Tunefox for all the help through both group and individual support, I wish you could have been available 50 years ago, I would be on stage now next to Scruggs! Show more

    Very cool
    This app. is just what I was looking for. It takes the expense out of getting private lessons and having to go lessons some where. Great tutorials for all levels. I particularly like the video tutorials and play alongs. This app. will save me $200.00 a month in lessons. Show more

    Great app
    I’ve been playing Banjo for many years. I have subscribed to many web sites and purchased countless books and tabs. Tune Fox is hands down the easiest and most comprehensive approach available. Great app. Dr. Kirby McGill Show more

    It’s Key To How I Learn
    I’ve been an early user of TuneFox and love the new app and the ease with which I can learn new songs, either solely by ear or with some of the tools (ease of isolating measures, hidden notes, ability to switch in different licks, Scruggs/melodic and backup playing styles). With TuneFox, I’ve stretched myself like never before, and it’s all self-paced. When i’ve got a tune I want to master, as happened this week at a jam session, TuneFox was my first stop. I love being able to isolate one, two three measures until I have them nailed and then move on. In the past, I’ve always started at the beginning of a song and as a result, i don’t get to the back of the song as much. That’s all changed and I am seeing progress I’ve never seen before! I’m now using it for mandolin and plan on using it to learn guitar. Show more

    Time to pick up the banjo again.
    Was learning banjo many years, and life happened. Started again and looked for a teaching app. Wow, there are many out there, some very good, a lot, not so much. Tunefox is one of the more expensive, but well worth the money. Many options in learning how to play and improve your skills. Show more

    Great for musicians and beginners alike
    Finally an app that has so many cool features it’s hard to mention all. This app was created by professional musicians and teachers so it addresses all aspect of music learning. I am a professional musician and teacher and now use this app with many of my students. Good job guys! Show more

    Very cool app. Really intuitive and easy to use. Definitely the most condensed and accessible platform to learn bluegrass tunes that I've seen online. Highly recommend it!
  • Wheel Hoss, 28.06.2017
    Worthy!
    If you want to learn banjo on your own, working with this app will make it happen. I play banjo and I've learned a ton (especially melodic style). Totally worth it. Test it out on the 7 day trial and buy a month or more. Love it. Show more

    No free option
    Only wants me to upgrade immediately.
  • Crazy Cat5, 18.06.2017
    What they don't tell you
    This is a great app, but what they don't tell you is that it is only a free trial version. Then they want to charge you a minimum of 9.99 a month. Show more

    Really effective for improving skills
    Had this app for about 2 months and can't believe how much my play has improved. I'm an advanced beginner and there are quite a few songs perfect for my level, though a few more would be great. I love that I can learn a simple version of a song and then substitute in more advanced measures. Please keep creating new songs! Show more

    TuneFox
    This is a great new app. One of the advantages is that you are hearing real banjo instead of midi sounds. It lets you loop any section you want to practice. It also teaches the backup to songs which is such an important skill in jamming. Show more
