PRACTICE TIPS:
Learn the chord progression for each track, and then jump over to practicing scales. Guess what? There are only 5 'shapes' of a scale to memorize! Once you know them up and down, learn where they start for each key. Soon, you'll be able to solo like a pro.

TIPS FOR THE SCALE CHARTS:
- Black dots are regular notes.
- Red dots are 'root notes'. These are notes of the key you are in.
- Blue dots are 'passing notes'. Including these notes puts you in a Blues mode.

It's not that good. Only one track per style in major or minor key, 6 or 8 in total. Additional packs are 1 to 3 dollars each. It's just not worth it in my opinion. It's just backing tracks and there is no export function. Good sound quality and functional UI give it 2 stars but really for a good musician this is a waste of your time.

Really good for practising with. There's some good backing tracks, but the big with this is that you get all your scales on major and minor and all the fretboard positions in one easy to see page that you can thrn print off for memorising.

Zero rating! Regret purchasing, and due to horrible google play refund policy missed out on a refund. Not fully compatible with latest version of Android, selection of ONLY 5 unique back tracks, no option to modify tempo/bpm, requests USB storage read/write permissions for some unnecessary reason.
