Two Free iPhone Apps for Guitar Players
If you’re cool enough to be both a guitar player and an iPhone owner, these two free iPhone apps are worth checking out.
Guitar Chords
A straight forward app that lets you reference a ton of chords on your iPhone or Touch. If you’re like me and have had to deal with complex chord charts/books while figuring out a new song or writing one, you’ll appreciate the simple layout of Chords. I can’t vouch for the range of chords in the the app, but it appears to be loaded up nicely and I’m guessing it’ll meet the needs of many. Download it from the App Store. It’s free.
Songbook
Like many who got their first guitar and immediately wanted to rock out, I never took the time to learn to read music properly. Fortunately, tablature and a decent ear can go a long way. Songbook lets you carry around your Chord Pro formatted tabs in your pocket. Search Chordie.com (which itself has a slick iPhone friendly version) and download songs directly into Songbook with the included bookmarklet. Songbook is free on the App Store.
