In 1975 my Dad got a guitar for Christmas. I was 10 and I was under strict instructions not to touch it. But you know us little boys I touched it as often as I could and never got caught. I got my own when I was 16 and earned my own money. It wasn’t that my parents wouldn’t get me one. I was too embarrassed to ask for something I might not be able to pick up. I’d fooled around with my dads and had no idea what to do with it. I met a guy at my first job who was also learning to play as well and he told me about Tab’s. But as you know in 1980 the only place you could find tabs were in music books at the music store and you were lucky to find a song you liked to work on. And they were $15 to $25 a pop. It was insane. So I picked up what I could until I got married had a kid etc and so on until my divorce in 1997. I’d sold off all my guitars, music, chords and amps etc. over the years so I had to start from scratch. I’d bought my first computer in 1990 and got on the internet around 1992ish. Then I heard about harmony Central and WOW. I STILL HAVE TABS THAT I PRINTED OFF THAT SITE. Anyway when that site was shut down I was depressed but at the time I was in a working band playing every weekend. That and broke up around 2003 when I got my first iPhone this App was available and off we went. I LOVE YOUR APP AND I CANNOT OVER STATE THAT. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT. IT HAS EVERYTHING A NEW GUITARIST COULD WANT.

I must say this app has done wonders for me. I never played a guitar my life I’ve seen my man playing the guitar and I just admire the instrument and respect it so much because it is an instrument of infinite sound bc of all the different chords/ notes. This app has helped me learn how to play guitar and learn the notes of different types of G chords, the different ways to play a B minor, different ways to play any chord. It’s literally taught me how to play entire songs with ease. Of course practicing but bc of this app, I was able to learn an entire song within a week and yeah it comes with a lot of practice and repetition but this app is incredible. I don’t think I could’ve done it without this app. I wish I could afford to pay for the pro version so I can have the auto scroll and all the other amazing perks that come with it but this is an amazing app regardless and the free version is incredible. I love it and I recommend it to anybody who is Learning to play the guitar, who wants to learn how to play or even experts that want to learn new songs. My man and I use it all the time— he uses it to learn new songs as well as I do. I couldn’t be more grateful for this to happen the free trial the seven day trial that was when I learned how to play the guitar and entire song in that seven day period. 10 stars across the board

I'm a beginner with no skills whatsoever and I just had to have this app. It's great to have so many tabs to choose from and easy to understand. Just get the app if you own a guitar. You won't be disappointed. I have even subscribed to the online classes. Those have really helped. I have moved my focus from learning guitar to learning to play the bass due to arthritis. Plus, it’s 2 less strings that I don’t have to worry about. My only suggestion for the staff at Ultimate Guitar would be if there was a little more structure in the courses. I would like for it to be “Start here” and then this should be the “Next Course” I found one instructor that I really liked and it was my ah ha moment but I didn’t know where to go next. I feel like an idiot bc I can’t comprehend some things or remember, but then I’ll stumble across a lesson that now it all makes sense. Trying to self teach is very difficult for me and I’m too embarrassed to go take lessons. I do have a very good friend that helps me from time to time and he says he can tell a difference that I’m getting better. I’m not going to say how long I’ve been playing because I know by now I should be able to play. The important thing is I guess is that I’m still playing and having fun. If that counts for something?
