Learn Guitar With Flash

At : 2:21 AM | Link | Flash, Music | Comments (4) | Send | 1019 Views |

I just came home from my 4th guitar class with the chords and bass pattern to Ring Of Fire by Johnny Cash and after some practise I got it going. In my struggles I couldn't help but wish there was something out there where I can specify the chords, strum pattern, set a tempo and hit play to get a pace partner.

I scanned around and found a fun site called ActionTab.com which has interactive flash fingerpicking demonstrations with two speeds. It is just okay as a tool for beginners - I think I want what I described above though so I'll add it to my todo pile and if I get any spare time to work on this I will post it here when I'm done.

  1. hi, i just wanted to point out there are some other great applications for guitar out there. One that i personally recommend is TabSmart. Not only does it have a cool interface, but it also is built on the Central architecture for easy try/buy functionality. oh, almost forgot, heres that softwares link. http://www.guitar-learning.com/

  2. Dominick, Thanks for the link. I'll take a look this evening. Seems like it could be a great tool and of course, we love anything built with new tools like Central ;-)
