Fretboard skins are designed in the style of Rickenbacker, Strat, Gretsch, ’59 Les Paul and more!

Music Tracking highlights the music and lyrics as they’re heard, making it easy to follow along on guitar.Use Variable-Speed MIDI Tracks to speed up or slow the tempo down as desired. Use this in combination with the looping feature, and you can learn at the pace best suited to you!
