Fender Play: Learn Guitar

From music theory to basic lessons that don’t seem that difficult but seriously help you gain better control of your fingers and gain finger strength this app really does help you become much more proficient far faster than learning on your own. It also has entire songs as well as riffs to them you can play. So if the entire song is too difficult they you can at least learn the main riffs to them. When they teach you a full song they actually start with the basic set ups for it all. Including amp set ups, pedal settings, and more to actually get the same sound as they use for the song. I’m learning a lot so when it’s finally time to upgrade from my squire Stratocaster I’ll absolutely be buying a true Fender! I’m seriously loving how easy this app is. I feel like navigating to certain parts of the app can be difficult but if you’re willing to look they have just about everything you’re looking for. They also have a wide array of songs for all kinds of players. Jazz, metal, even Taylor swift if that’s more up your alley. Definitely recommend it to anyone learning to play. If you’re worried about playing too loud fender actually offers an alternative to a basic amp with a blutooth capable plug (also accepts basic headphones) that that will replicate using an amp even with basic effects right to the head phones in their online store. So if you want to really shed on the guitar with a song you just learned without waking anyone you can absolutely do so!

As an adult learner I have found the fender app/website to be extremely useful. I can play it on any device i have and the video/audio quality is never subpar. That means i can take my guitar anywhere and play lessons from my phone, which is helpful when I have a bit of free time in between the events in my day. The instructors and instructions are clear and I like the fact they show a variety of camera angles when teaching chords and techniques. Best of all, I can revisit each video as many times as a need to, work at my own pace, and move ahead when i feel new information might be helpful to mastering previous techniques or to add variety. Overall, excellent job Fender. One MAJOR request that I have since I am coming from previous experiences playing piano and vocals, is that you provide lessons on how to transpose music from standard notation to tab and back again so I can use the music book i have collected over the years to play the songs I love. Thanks again Fender!
