The tab follows the routine while the fretboard shows where you are. Preview the shapes before you start, then settle into the playing.

Scrolling tabs, count-ins and clear shape diagrams guide you through the exercises and positions. Pause when you need to.
Focus Mode in the alternate picking and legato Chops Builders takes a single sequence through the positions and checks it off when completed.
