Not enitrely sure what this is, I think it simulates a guitar, and you pluck strings using the touch screen. Reckon this needs investigating Wink

It is a game or an emulator?

How's the chords gonna work?

Be cool if it had a string tuner in it.

Deffo worth an investigative purchase.

Viva la non-games.

It would be a simulator, rather than an emulator...

No idea what it does though, really.

Having YouTube'd the arse out of this all I can gather is that you set chords using the D-pad (giving a choice of 8 ) and strum the guitar using the touch screen. Whether it lets you build your own custom chords I'm not sure. It's also possible that one of the buttons (possibly the left trigger) might be used as some sort of modifier. Can't really tell from the vids.

Still could be a very interesting toy and great fun if you plugged it into a real amp Smile

True, but... where is the fun in that? Smile

I find this more interesting because I don't really inderstand what it could be used for. The cover is bizarre enough in itself, a black apple with a bite taken out doesn't shout 'guitar!' at me Tongue

Have this now, and had a quick go at it.

Smells educational to me. Lots of options to aid usability. I think ultimately it is there to learn guitar notes by sound, and will let you play songs by strumming the screen.

No real game in there as such.
