Description
An educational game to learn the location of notes on the fretboard of the guitar and other stringed instruments. Eleven instruments are available, including bass (4/5/6 strings), mandolin, ukulele and banjo.
You are presented with a random note on the fretboard, and are offered a variety of choices for the correct answer. Just pick the button corresponding to the correct choice to score a hit!
The new staff training mode also helps you learn the position of notes on the musical staff on the fretboard of your instrument.
As your score gets better and you manage to identify notes faster across the entire fretboard, your working knowledge of the instrument increases!
Game mode provides a fun way to make progress. Work your way through levels of increasing difficulty and compete with your friends!
WHAT ARTISTS SAY ABOUT THE APP
“ Learning the notes on the fretboard is key to any guitarist's development on the instrument, and [Fretuoso] is a neat way to get that info burned into your brain without having to carry a guitar with you everywhere you go. Pretty cool! ”
-- Bryan Beller (Dethklok, Steve Vai, Mike Keneally)
“ This is one of the best apps I've seen in a while. It's simple, fun and educational. Very useful for guitar players as a lot of [them] tend to play by ear and not care much about knowing the fretboard. ”
-- Rick Musallam (Mike Keneally, Gryphon Labs)

Used to love this app
I used to love this app until they started making you be online to use it. Defeats the purpose for having it. I can’t use it on a plane!!
Fretboard practice
This app only shows part of a fretboard at any given time. As a beginner this was not helpful because I’m trying to orientate myself to the whole front board and it’s easy to get confused by seeing only part of the fretboard. The other options for learning either string by string or fret by fret is fabulous.
Very helpful app
I am especially interested in learning the notes on the staff in relation to the fretboard, and this app works perfectly for me. The sound is great and the visuals are clear. Also, the dev is very responsive. Thank you for making a fine app, and I highly recommend it. As I continue working with it, I'm finding it even more helpful than I expected. Bravo!
Useful, Stable
Nice graphic design, stable, intuitive and very customizable. Solid app.
