It was challenging to find the correct chords before I discovered Ultimate Guitar, my network of musicians grew exponentially bouncing chords and ideas off every song that we were interested in. As age catches up on you, networks and interests change. I now have 1 electric and 3 acoustic guitars and 1 small amp, Ultimate Guitar has grown to offer much more than guitar chords and tabs. With the assistance of technology the team have introduced much more to the app and the crazy thing is I can practice my music through my small iPhone without the need of buying individual foot pedals taking most of the guess work out. You can choose any song you like and start playing in a matter of minutes to the nearest sound quality to the original song, all while the page scrolls up so you no longer have to stop and move the page. The network of people offered within the app makes finding like minded people easier as everyone on the app are there online for 1 reason - to learn!This is why I gave Ultimate Guitar 5 stars, made easy from humble beginnings!!!
Not impressed
obtuse statistician
I’ve been using this website - now app - for over half my life. It’s time to say my piece. This is a nasty, nasty little app which has slowly over time completely lost sight of the purity of its original purpose. The advertising is intrusive, pervasive and manipulative. Every time there’s a new feature in the app, it forces you through a lengthy questionnaire to “personalise your experience”. And guess what? The quality of the product has never been worse. It’s constantly redirecting you to to its premium content, and the free tabs are mostly comprised of tone deaf morons throwing up their best guesses - you have to sift through 15 versions to find the quietly resigned angry loser who cared enough to correct the rest. If you haven’t figured out how to transpose by ear, it’s time. AI will be coming for your sorry asses anyway. It’s only a short matter of time before this useless technology is rendered completely obsolete, and I for one can’t wait until you’re fully out of business. Way to go guys, it’s ruined.

I began playing music in 1961(on a borrowed guitar) given my first guitar on 7th birthday .. Became well known locally and got a lot of attention at a young age. By age 17 I was a full blown alcoholic..my life started to spin out of my control. I denied I had a problem... one day I simply stopped playing music and for the next 28 years I didn’t go near a guitar or sing ..Time moves on and I got clean and sober in 1992 ..The very cool thing about this app is it’s building relationships, knowledge ..It’s so helpful in many ways.. being able to use this app is like a reward for my sobriety ... huge thank-you to all concerned 👍👍👍👍🕺🕺🕺🕺🕺🕺😎
