Hooked enough to buy a Gibson

This Is Elin · Oct 2026

Didn't think a guitar app would get me this hooked, but here we are. I started making real progress, sold my old guitar, and bought a Gibson. Now I'm playing almost every day. Pretty wild, honestly. Thanks, Gibson

Like Guitar Hero with a real guitar

dhutchi2 · Sep 2026

I've been using the app for about 3 weeks now. Bought the paid subscription after the 1 week trial because I liked it so much. It's like playing guitar hero with a real guitar! I have so much fun with the structured lessons and my muscle memory is quickly improving. I also love the AI feedback telling me what skills I have improved and areas I still need to work on. This is helping me become a better guitar player instead of just memorizing songs from YouTube. Highly recommend if you want to improve your skills.

Patient app, patient support team

David_B.UK · Aug 2026

As an older beginner, I find the App easy to follow, intuitive and it never loses its temper! The customer service team have been equally patient in helping me with my "newbie" queries. A super start to what I hope will be a long and rewarding partnership.

Learned so much on day one

New Singer101 · Aug 2026

I want to be a singer, but I feel like I need to learn an instrument. So me and my dad looked on the App Store and tried it out. It's still my first day and I feel like I have learned so much.

Found what years of lessons were missing

This one wasn't being used · Aug 2026

I took a chance about a year and a half ago. After years of lessons and tutorials I was still missing something and started the Gibson app and can't say enough about how good it is and how it's helped me progress in my home on my time and sooo many things you can do that keeps you focused and having fun 🤘🏼.

A great way to practice

Strummer @12 · Jul 2026

I have installed this app on multiple devices and it is a great way to play guitar. I have been learning guitar for about 4 years and it is a good way to practice and play guitar with Gibson. I would like to see a platform where you can write songs and publish it among artists

5 stars

Beginner friendly, no tutor needed

tmannazy · Jul 2026

The goal is for me to be a professional guitarist one day and I learnt playing guitar and understanding tips around guitar using this app. It's a great beginner friendly app without any need for a tutor or instructor.

Exactly what I needed after another app

ALearnedDoctor · May 2026

Spent a little over a year using a different app and even though I was progressing through the lessons my playing was sloppy and often times I felt I was taking 2 steps forward and then 3 steps back. So a little over a couple weeks ago I gave this a shot and it's exactly what I've needed. I started at the beginner level and am working my way through the power chord section now and I've already noticed and more importantly can hear the improvement. If you're willing to put the work in I honestly think this is the best app out there right now. I really really like the lesson review breakdowns where you can see the percentages of how well you're playing everything. Each day I'll play a new lesson but will also go back to work on the stuff that could use improvement. Highly recommended. Great job Gibson, great job.

5 stars

Learned so much in my first year

Dayuvdan · May 2026

This is the first app I purchased and used when I started my guitar journey. With no real music experience I have learned so much in the last year thanks to the GGA!

5 stars

Feels like one on one lessons

jbreffle · May 2026

The instruction is really high quality. I feel like m getting one on one lessons. You can also learn the styles your interested in outside the basic lessons. The play along system is like guitar hero and before I thought that was crazy but it actually is so much a great way to learn and see yourself progress as you nail down scales and songs.

A demonstrable difference in my playing

40+ years playing and still learning

Nikafett · Apr 2026

I've been playing for 40 + years and I thought I'd try this app after avoiding all "Learn to play guitar" tutorials, now I wish I'd done it years ago! I'm starting to understand why some patterns work and others don't. Im also unlocking the fretboard in a way I've never done before. So this 53 year old indie boy can only say "thank you Gibson" and if you are reading this review trust me, give it a shot it doesn't matter how long you have been playing there is always something to learn from this awesome app.

Eased me into it

Great for relearning the fundamentals

Chris E Molina · Apr 2026

What a great app to get back in a relearn some fundamentals, while also being able to enjoy so classic songs. The tab format is extremely easy to follow and pick up after a few lessons I was hooked. I'm already 5 lessons in and looking forward to staying on top of it!

5 stars

Got my discipline back

Pulloutbaby · Apr 2026

I took 12 to 15 years off from playing. I was really rusted. Got this app just to give me something to play with and try to get my chops back. Even though it's beginner status I was able to run through it but as it progressed it really helped me get back into it. I refuse to skip through it. It really helped me get my discipline back. Help me get my count back. Although I'm not where are used to be I'm getting close. I really enjoyed using this app. It's a little pricey, but it's been worth it to me.

5 stars

Almost a year in and loving it

mr_autotude · Apr 2026

Im really liking the app so far and its almost been a year for me. I looked and this is the only place ive found to contact about the app. My question is is there a way to create an area for users to store favorite songs and and other favorite guides that separates them from the long list of liked pages, as sometimes its hard to find that one really liked song you just go back to over again. Thanks for your time and a great app

Guitar Hero, but you learn a real guitar

123daz789 · Apr 2026

I bought my first ever guitar and for the first two weeks found myself jumping between YouTube videos learning random riffs. Whilst I did learn some things there was no structure and I can understand why the majority of people quit in the first year. I then found the Gibson App and everything changed! The App is effectively Guitar Hero but you actually learn a real guitar along the way. It's structured so you can effectively learn from a complete newcomer to smashing solos like Slash from Guns n Roses. If you're not a newcomer you can skip up to the level you currently are. I paid slightly extra for the 'famous songs' which for me personally I believe having a bigger library is well worth the few quid extra for the year. Overall, this App is brilliant and I would definitely recommend for anyone that either wants to learn guitar from scratch or is more advanced and wants to progress to the next level.

Great app, would love a friends list feature

SlinkyDinkyy · Feb 2026

The app is honestly great and the 25$ a month is not a bad price for how much they're willing to teach you, the only thing I'd like to add is a friends list. I'd like to be able to have friendly competitions with my friends and keep up with each others progress even if we aren't in the same league. It could also potentially open the door for mobile play sessions amongst players. Otherwise absolutely love the app and plan to continue using it and referring people to it.

neo 1985 · Feb 2026

I love this guitar app I tried a few before and did some online lessons but none has brought me as far as Gibson I feel like I'm learning something everyday I'm also the winner of the Flying V Christmas guitar contest so my hard work is paying off thank you Gibson highly recommend this app

Instant feedback has sped up my progress

Mt. Noonan · Feb 2026

I have tried two other competitor's apps over the years, Fender and True Fire. After putting the guitar down for a year or two, I've been back at it with Gibson for a month. It works for me. Having the instant feedback has sped up my progress and allows me to see and hear when I'm making a mistake. For the price of a few in person lessons, this is an absolute bargain. Highly recommend you use this on an iPad.

5 stars

Absolutely brilliant coaching app

Awesome Alf · Feb 2026

I've never played the guitar before, so when I had one bought for me I needed a lot of help! This app is absolutely brilliant and coaches myself from not knowing anything about guitar to being able to play basic tunes and chords. I've had the app for nearly a year and use it almost daily. It's amazing to be able to see your own progression through the lessons. One slight criticism is that I've come to lesson 3 in strumming which requires multiple fat chord changes with also a difficulty strumming pattern. It seems such a large step up from the previous lesson that it has totally blocked my progress. The lessons are normally well paced and challenging, but this particular lesson is so very difficult I'm blocked. Luckily there is so much else to do that it's easy to find something and make progress, so I'm doing the finger picking guides which are fantastic and well paced. All in all a fantastic app and one that I will easily renew my subscription. I do hope that there are updates to the strumming lessons to break it down a little more! Thanks Gibson!

Best of them all, big time

SurfUp🤙🏻 · Jan 2026

I am learning how to play guitar since a couple of years and I have been trying basically all the "best" apps in the market. This app is the best of them all big time… and I am finally learning how to play guitar while I am having a lot of fun. Definitely super recommended.

5 stars

Great way to learn on your own time

Tommy McSass · Jan 2026

I wish they had this when I was a kid. You can take the lessons in your own time when they give you all the tips and tricks you're looking for repeatedly so you don't forget.

5 stars

Amazing in so many ways!

Niceride101 · Jan 2026

I picked the guitar back up after a 20 year break because my daughter wanted to learn how to play. This app is simply amazing! It got me back to where I was prior to putting it down then before I knew it I was better than I was years ago. The lessons are easy to navigate. The song library is plentiful but if theory or genres are your thing there is plenty to do. I wish this technology was around years ago and I might not have put the guitar down. Not only is it filled with lessons, tips, tricks, etc. it turns your iPad or iPhone into an amp. If you are traveling for work or pleasure, plug into your phone. I look to be a subscriber for years to come! I am looking forward to progressing with the fun tools they provide.

5 stars

Excellent!!!

McSwizzy · Jan 2026

Great App, Great Customer Service

Love this app. I have learned more in a few months than I did in years prior. I also had their customer service team help me out and they were amazing. This is a worry free purchase with so much value.

Love this app!

GuitarLearner42 · Jan 2026

So much fun to learn. I lose track of time playing and learning. The app is slick and professional. I love both Jamie and Irene that break the songs down in a cool and helpful way for you to learn. Welcome to guitar lessons that are on a different level.

5 stars

So glad I've found this app!

Richard252 · Dec 2025

The lessons, feedback, gamified approach, helpful information, and AI feedback make this app stand out. This is a great adjunct to having a live teacher. This will really stoke your motivation to become a better player.

Amazing

AnniePantsy5678 · Dec 2025

I've had a sentimental guitar for about 10 years and every time I try to pick it up (with or without an instructor) I put it right back down and lament how I wish it would just "come to me." I've been playing with this app for three weeks now and have just gotten through all the chords!!! I'm PLAYING CHORDS!!! The app makes it addicting and fun and easy to learn. If you've been putting off picking up your guitar and you see this review… Pay for the app and start playing!! I'm telling you, it's worth every penny and it's the best thing that's happened to me all year. Thank you Gibson! Brilliant! Absolutely brilliant!

Finally gave it a real try and WOW

Aljasper · Nov 2025

As a middle-aged person learning guitar for the first time, this app intimidated me for too long. I finally decided to give it a sincere effort and am so glad I did. This is the best app I have used (and I have tried many different apps.) The lessons are well done and the quality of instruction is excellent. I really enjoy connecting my guitar and amp to the app, playing along with songs and lessons, and getting immediate and accurate feedback about my performance.

5 stars

Hands down the best one out there

Bloubul3 · Nov 2025

Hands down the best app on the market today and I have advanced so much with this app. And now with the original tabs/chords, it's literally my favourite app and I highly recommend this app for anyone. Simple to use and easy to follow.

This one actually kept my interest!

Hidhgcdf · Nov 2025

I've taken private guitar lessons in the past but with the state of the economy, I wanted to find something more economical - that I would actually stick with. I've tried numerous online courses, and apps. This is the first one that has really held my interest. I love how interactive it is, and how much variety it has. I love that it "listens" to you and tells you how you're doing. And believe it or not, I actually like that you have to do well enough on something to advance to the next section. It gives me a goal to reach for, which pushes me beyond "well it's good enough." I'm so happy with this app, and highly recommend it to others.

Started slow but now I can't stop

Kscyorkshire · Oct 2025

I started playing a little over a year ago with videos and other apps but progress was slow and haphazard. Then I tried this app and WOW…what a difference. I started with the solo track for the first few months and really started to get the feel for my guitar. It was not a race to finish for me so I did not move onto the next lesson until I was comfortable with the previous lesson. I then started the rhythm track and do a little of both each day. I am approaching 1m xp and can feel my abilities improving at a faster and faster pace. The new updates are fun but I do miss the video record option. Keep up the good work!

30 years playing and this still helped

Sordin · Oct 2025

I've played basic guitar off and on for the last 30 years. This app has not only helped me rediscover the joy of playing an instrument but has also taken my skills to new heights in a pedagogical and fun way. I even learned picking which is something I've always struggled with. And who doesn't want to play a duet with Mark Knopfler? I really recommend it no matter your skill level. Invest in it and you invest in yourself. Have fun!

5 stars

Frustrating but totally worth it

Tried several apps, this one's different

AntMac246 · Sep 2025

I tried several apps before settling on Gibson. It's much better than the other apps in terms of lesson structure, technique content and song selection. Yes, some lessons are harder but with the slow down speed control and practice you'll be surprised what you can achieve. My timing and technique are much improved because of the live lesson feedback when playing. They also regularly add new lessons and songs. So haven't run out of choice in a year.

Didn't realize I was actually learning!

Tattooed_Joe · Jul 2025

I've learned so much from this app. Didn't realize I was learning, was just having fun going through the lessons and learning songs, but my skills have greatly improved. I use the iRig HD X interface on an iPad while I Bluetooth the audio to a Spark 40 amp. Very rarely do I have any issues. If it ever does lag, a quick reboot of the app usually fixes it. I have so much fun on this app, can't recommend it enough. It's pricey, but you get a lot for your money, as long as you use it.

5 stars

Practice isn't boring anymore

Jim789789 · Jul 2025

Can't wait to get home and play

YauhenK · Jun 2025

Amazing and encouraging app! I tried another similar competition app, but quickly got bored. Gibson has very different approach, more details in theory, nice structure of lessons. I really always wait when I come back home and be able to launch it. Gaming style makes it fun to practice and don't give up. Of course it's probably not for advanced players, but for novices like me — you probably won't find any other so motivational and fun lessons.

5 stars

Finally an app that doesn't rush you

KristenM231 · Jun 2025

I've tried out a bunch of the different guitar apps and this one is hands down the best. I like that they don't just throw you into using all 6 strings in the first two main courses or starting chords immediately. I think this approach actually gets you used to playing single strings quickly and pick up finger dexterity and speed that you'll need before diving into more complex lessons. Design is great too with the ability to slow the speed and look at the whole tab before playing. I'm excited for the new music theory course too, which will help me better grasp what I'm playing.

5 stars

Thank you for making music accessible

Jun 2025

Dear Gibson, Thank you so much for the service you provide, your app is absolutely wonderful and is a great jumping off point for aspiring guitarists, I found that my path would progress better with an in person teacher so I am choosing not to continue as money is tight and it's a little too expensive to do both. Your app is an absolutely amazing way to get new people into guitar and to have accessible lessons for people who aren't fortunate enough to have the luxury of paying a professional for lessons. I think it's one of the most wonderful things someone can do, making music accessible to the majority of the public and I find it very noble that you've created an app for that cause. Sometimes when we have very little hope, music is all we have. It's a beautiful thing to share it with everyone. The app is easy to use and easy to navigate and I think it's great for beginner guitarists in particular. I heard about it through a student and I myself am a little too old to say for sure, but I've noticed that the kids I teach that also play love how it feels a little like a video game. They find it more engaging than regular practice. Thank you so much for the services you provide and I hope you continue to teach many future rockstars for years to come

Started at 40, playing every day now!

rad_habits · May 2025

I bought a guitar the day before I turned 40. I had many people tell me why are you doing that you are starting way too late. I downloaded this app a week later and I have been playing for an hour or more every day for the past 30 days. It is so much fun. I love this app.

Way better than Justin Guitar honestly

Doc Andrews · May 2025

This Gibson learning app is amazing and it is light years ahead of the Justin Guitar lessons app. Yes I paid for both subscriptions to compare them. Lol. I wanted to make sure that I using my time efficiently. In short, I won't be renewing my subscription to Justin no matter how cheap it is. For reference, I'm an adult beginner with no significant prior music experience other than signing karaoke with friends. With just one week's worth of Gibson lessons, I am comfortably using 3 fingers and two strings. More to come for sure :). This app is rewarding and designed in such a way that practice is truly fun. The Ai interface and leaderboard makes it feel like practice isn't work at all. It's enjoyable, you get to anonymously compete with other beginners with earned practice points, and at the same time it challenges you to improve. Sometimes I find myself planning for a 30 minute practice time, then look up to see that 1.5 hrs has gone by. It's rewarding. and I recommend it without reservation.

The stop n go feature is a game changer

MrHealerMan · Apr 2025

At first it seems like it was tailored for electric guitars but you just have to choose the right lesson. I love the new stop n go feature. I love playing fast songs but its challenging to keep pace. With the stop n go feature it lets me correct my mistakes and actually learn from my mistakes instead of just playing over and over till i get it right.

I chose the Gibson App last year on my birthday to learn something I've wanted to do for years and I'm STILL finding things in the App I didn't know were there! This App seriously has MORE INFORMATION than you can imagine! Professional input, guides to take you through everything from theory to technique…and I PROMISE you can't get this much info and instruction anywhere else for such a good price!!!! Gibson has set the bar and then exceeded it!!! Subscribe now and get to work…you won't be disappointed!!!!

Way more fun than Fender Play

MT Mind · Feb 2025

If you are looking for a fun interactive guitar learning app, this is excellent. I have used both this and fender play. While the Fender app is good, the lessons often times felt tedious. These lessons are fun and more like playing guitar hero. So far I am enjoying this app a lot.

More progress in weeks than 20 years

pacman180 · Jan 2025

Had been stuck playing the same few songs, riffs and chords for years(decades even). Difficult to find time for lessons between work and family life. Have had this app for a few weeks and my playing is progressed more in that time than the last 20 years! Absolutely brilliant and really enjoying rocking along with my favourite Guns and Roses tunes! Keep up the good work!

Zero experience to playing with confidence

Suburban Assassin · Dec 2024

This app is amazing. Easy to understand and use. In a few short weeks, had some basics down to start playing with confidence. I had zero guitar experience except for a few failed attempts to learn back in college. The apps approach to learning is great and you can go real deep into music theory if you choose to. The team running the app also does a great job adding new music across varying skill levels, keeping things fresh, exciting and challenging.

As a self proclaimed "noodler" for years, no lessons, either inline or in person, kept me interested. As a person with adult ADHD, I need constant input and feedback. This app gives me that. I log in 5 times a week, and always spend at least an hour enjoying the experience.

Less forgiving = better habits

maAdaAaaa · Nov 2024

I used youscian for many years and I can play guitar. Youscian is a great app in its own right, however this app is really stressing the importance of working out bad habits. For example this app is less forgiving and is forcing me get more accurate on my fretboard. I can already tell that my timing and overall control on the fretboard is more accurate already after One day of practice… and this is just running through the beginning tutorial. Very happy.

Two days in and my fingers hurt so good!

Downloaded by mistake, best accident ever

MarkGorm · Nov 2024

Downloaded by mistake and paid for a year but the best purchase I made. This app will do what it says and help you with your playing abilities. It makes it fun to learn along the way. Thanks for a great app

Almost 50, first time learning, loving it!

Kits to Kradles Nursery · Oct 2024

I am close to 50 yo, female and just learning how to play the electric guitar for the first time. This is the easiest instrumental app that I have ever used! It's actually fun to play all of my favorite songs from the 80s right from the beginning! Being able to play along with my favorite songs, even in the first and second lesson made learning fun and easy. This app really keeps me wanting to come back and continue learning! I never thought it could be this fun! I really don't feel like a beginner at all! In just the first two lessons , I felt like I was actually playing my guitar. I was also worried about how quickly I would learn as I age, but this feels like it is so easy with this app. It has been worth every penny!

Use it every day, seeing real growth

TRF CHAMP · Oct 2024

This is the best app I have found yet! I do it every day and I have had amazing growth and it is cheaper than the other apps!

Drummer for 15 years, now learning guitar!

201 Meco · Oct 2024

I played the drums for 15 years loved it and always wanted to learn the guitar but it was intimidating to me. Never ended up taking formal classes and the money my dad spent on a squire strat went out the window all those years ago. Im 27 now just picked up a guitar have been using youtube and tabs but this is by far the most fun ive had and most progress ive seen playing an instrument since i picked up a set of drumsticks. Its legit like a video game ill recommend it to everyone and im having the time of my life playing even the most basic stuff here. Shoutout Gibson man this is revolutionary stuff!

Like Guitar Hero but with my real guitar

vml.47 · Sep 2024

Feels like playing Guitar Hero, but with a real guitar that picks up everything you play—every string, every fret. I already play guitar, but the app gives me some great tips. I can spend hours practicing now, which never happened before. So happy I found it!

30 years stuck, finally learning lead

Shawshawk · Sep 2024

I've been playing guitar for over 30 years and felt very stuck, I always wanted to learn lead and riffs but wasn't really sure where to start. I find this app genuinely great at getting me out of a learning hole.

Love how Gibson starts you off

Mandie Simpson · Sep 2024

I tried Simply Guitar first and it was not helpful to me. I love that Gibson starts with fingers and positioning and then strumming. Before trying to make chord shapes. It's a little pricey but I think well worth every penny. And I love learning to play along with some of my favorite song

This is my main learning source now

Jugón83 · Aug 2024

One of best apps I ever used. This is my main Learning source. Strongly recommended but it could be interesting to include an evaluation of your level indicating the results

A year and a half in, on advanced now!

David Q. Irwin · Aug 2024

I started a year and a half ago and am already on the advanced courses. This app is incredible. Love the scale workouts and all the new guides, please keep them coming. Using an iRig 2 to wire in to the app, the effects are really nice. Bring back Metallica and Pink Floyd though, please!

3 years and still using it daily

Jabbamundo · Jul 2024

This app is awesome and even though there are so many out there and lots of lessons on YouTube that are free. The way the lessons are structured in this app from basic finger picking and chords, learning your favourite songs in basic and advanced versions makes progression so so easy. I'm a beginner and I highly recommend this app. It's not free but so worth the spend. I've had it now for 3 years and will keep using it. It's very professionally done and well put together.

Wish I could give more than 5 stars

App keeps getting better!

Fugitive broadcast · Jul 2024

If you're a beginner or want to get better at guitar, you'll benefit from this app a lot! I'd suggest adding the famous songs package. It's getting much better every day with new guides and songs.

Only one that helped when I was stuck

IvaniusMeta · Jun 2024

I have tried many play-along guitar learning apps and this is the only one that helped me when I was stuck. Really smart way of learning scales.

Chicago Blues course is 🔥

hope this helps!?! · Jun 2024

Great instructors that do an amazing job of breaking down songs into learnable chunks. The gaming version for the tabs is really useful. I think my timing got better ha ha. The Chicago Blues course on this app is a fav!!

20 years with a guitar, finally learning

321Supras · Jun 2024

I've had a guitar for 20 years and nothing stuck—books, Udemy, YouTube, nothing. I've been using this for two weeks now and am seeing real progress. Started at 80–90% of notes and improving quickly. Went back to beginner lessons and I'm 100%ing songs on the first try. It's spendy, but cheaper than a teacher and it works. Starts you slowly: E string, then B, adding frets, fingers, etc.

Me and my son are both using this app and it's great! I never thought I could play guitar but I'm already playing chords and strumming in less than 6 months!! Love it!

Was skeptical, but wow it works

Runner512 · May 2024

I subscribed in July 2025 and was skeptical at first, but it has been amazing. I've tried nearly all online options. This app is different and offers immediate feedback on notes and rhythm. Wonderful videos, lessons broken into sections, huge song selection. It's fun, but you still need to practice—a lot.

Fixed my issue in 24 hours 🤘

Natedzl1234 · May 2024

Love the game-like approach

Crpcp09 · Mar 2024

I started using this app about a month ago, and it has made my progress on guitar so much easier to see! I love being able to select a song and learn in a game-like way. Without being a gimmick either! Streaks keep me eager to play daily.

2 weeks > years of noodling

JEPESP · Mar 2024

I've noodled with guitar for years, took lessons, tried learning on my own. This app's structure finally made it click. I learned more in 2 weeks than in years.
