## Steel Sidekick Reviews in United States

### ***** "Very helpful"
Every guitar player can benefit from this cool little gem, tap around and find all the settings, tunings and guitar necks.
-- Loopy Gizzard, 2025-12-04

### ***** "Great"
Love this app, super helpful. Would love the ability to edit the fret marker colors to match my guitar, but that’s a nitpick
-- natebiehl, 2024-03-03

### ***** "love this app"
this app has been so helpful to me as i play a couple of uncommon tunings on my pedal steels and lap steels. i am able to find scales and chords with ease. this app has been influential in my development as a player. thank you John Sohn!

-- otikferhiuyht, 2023-11-23

### ***-- "Steel Sidekick Tweak Needed"
Great idea, but when setting up a custom guitar, I discovered that you can’t set pedals or levers to raise or lower by 1/2 steps.
-- Uncle Lightnin’, 2023-04-28

### ***** "Every Steel Player needs this!"
This is a must have app.  Brilliant.  It gives you the entire layout so you can easily learn your different pedal & lap steel layouts.
-- vitess, 2022-01-16

### ***** "Great App for the Steel Guitar"
Just discovered this and am happy I did!  Don't forget that if you tap on the notes they'll sound the tones, and it's in tune of course. I'd love to see them add pedals and knee levers somehow to the various chords to make knowing where those are a lot easier.

Thanks to the maker of this App!
-- Piano Music Lover, 2021-05-18

### ***-- "Nice, but poor intonation"
The app is well designed and seems very useful. However, the intonation is off dramatically. The further I go up in pitch the more flat the notes go. Odd.
-- Bickerson1969, 2019-11-10

### ****- "Good tool"
Use this tool all the time. Only suggestion is to add more scales and chords. The modes would be great, some extended chords.
-- Bill from New York, 2019-03-26

### *---- "um, no it really doesn't work"
doesn't allow you to build a custom copedent. i dare you to try and input sneaky petes b6 copedent. one raise and one lower per string in real life, nothing in virtual reality. boooooo. fix it
-- snoopmarkymark, 2018-01-04

### ****- "Excellent tool"
Would be better if you could create a custom copedent.
-- Gutang, 2016-01-19

### ***** "Wow!"
Unbelievable! I never thought that I'd find a steel guitar app on here. Steel Sidekick is very organized, and it's easy to differentiate the notes on the guitar. The sounds also help me make sure I'm playing mine correctly! I'd recommend this app to anyone who is a beginner at the pedal steel, or even a master
