Every guitar player has to start by tuning up!
We started this website with a guitar tuner that allows you to tune up while sitting at your computer…no more searching for your mechanical tuner, replacing batteries, etc. Our website offers other tools as well, and we point you to other sites that have useful tools, such as metronomes, chord dictionaries, transposing tools, etc. We are working on a tool that helps you learn the notes on the fret board and we hope to offer more useful tools in the future. These free goodies will come in handy whether you’re a beginner, an accomplished guitarist, or a guitar instructor.

Here’s a handy chord finding tool (pick the letter name & chord type & it shows you a grid), and a chart that shows which intervals are in each chord type.
This chordfinder has nice graphics and shows you some unusual chord shapes.
This chordfinder gives you several ways to play any chord type. You have to figure out where to put the shapes, but it’s pretty self-explanatory.
The Progressionator! Pick a key and one of 16 common progressions, and one of 6 strumds, and you can read it and hear it.

You can create a drum pattern and regulate it like a metronome. Play to his instead of a “click-click” sound. Really cool!
Intervals – Game for learning intervals
Notes - Game for learning notes on the fretboard
Easy to control the speed, and can you choose which beats to accent. But it looks like you can only do 4/4.
Easy to use, but somewhat tempos are limited. It jumps in intervals of 4 (for example, from 92 to 96).
Put in the letter name (Db) and scale type (pentatonic minor) and it shows you several (like 8 or more) ways to play the scale. This is the biggest list of scale types I’ve ever seen (Chinese Mongolian? Six-tone Symmetrical?). There’s also a chart that shows how each scale type is constructed.
Give you all 12 modes, which pop up visually. You can see several ways to play any given scale in any key.
This site has many video lessons, with tablature, each one explaining how to play a particular type of scale.
Templates (tablature, music, chord grids, fretboard diagrams)
Three links at this site give you blank music paper to print out. One is for tablature (six lines), one for standard notation (5 lines) and one page is full of blank chord grids.
Audio – when you are sitting at home, you can use our website to tune. When you are away from home, without your laptop, you can use an electronic tuner. The easiest ones to use clip on to your guitar on the headstock. You can still use the “old school” string-to’string method (e.g., tune your 6th string at the 5th fret, to the open 5th string). That way your guitar will be tuned to itself, but not necessarily to standard pitch.
Fine tuner!
