Thanks for the feedback! Those are great ideas. I'm already working on a better keyboard layout so will add this to list.
I was thinking of adding Ukulele soon but I'll consider adding this too if more users ask for it.
Thanks alot for feedback. I tested it with FireFox on windows but not yet on Linux. Can you please describe whats broken or even better share a screenshot?
I just pushed an update fixing this issue. Let me know your thoughts. Thanks
Thanks! Yes, I plan to add beginners lessons and more songs.
Thanks for the feedback. I chose the default orientation to make a downward mouse movement produce a downstroke. In tab view that relationship is reversed. But I understand your point that tab view is more familiar to guitar players and matches learning materials. I will reconsider the default and how the view options are presented
Thanks for the feedback! Yes, I see your point. Did multitouch work for you on the fretboard?
Thanks, that's really great to hear! Custom tunings are a good suggestion. Can you share here or by mail (
[email protected]) which custom tunings do you use? That would help me understand what you'd need.
Thanks for the feedback! This might be a browserspecific bug. What device and os are you using?
Thanks for all the amazing feedback, everyone. I really appreciate it, and I'm writing all your notes down.
It would really help if you mention whether you tested it on mobile or desktop.
Thank you! Yes, I tried that, but since the app focuses on strumming, I couldn't use all the space for a long fretboard. I'm still working on a better mobile UI.
Thanks. You can paste any chords (with the lyrics) from any website into "my songs" section and play it.
Thanks! click on the sound button on the right and pick one of the electric presets. For more control, open Amp & FX in the same panel and choose Overdrive, Distortion or Fuzz.
Thanks, great input! Letting the shared strings ring through chord changes makes a lot of sense and I will look at it. Song techniques like palm muting are on the list too.
Your project sounds wonderful. Good luck with it, I'd love to see it when it's out.
Thanks for reporting! I will look into it. Did it happen on all notes?
Thanks! Both good ideas, noted.
I wanted to play some chords when Im away from my guitar and none of the browser online guitars I found were at the level I was looking for.
The keys follow the song's key:
A row = the 5 main chords (I IV V vi ii),
Q row = their sevenths
Z row = color chords
Good idea. I've added it to the list of upcoming improvements. Thanks!
Hi Rygian, Good catch.
Player view does show a left handed guitar. Two reasons:
1. matches what a right handed player sees looking down at their own guitar: low E on top, neck on the left.
2. players without guitar, to lined up with the pc keyboard that is on the left.
True Audience view is like you watch right hand guitar player.
Thanks you, Good luck with wonderwall!
Enjoy (; and tell your friend

Guitoro is a free browser guitar using recordings of real instruments. You can strum with your keyboard, mouse, or touchscreen, choose acoustic, classical, electric guitar or bass, and see chord fingering and each stroke. Song practice can be slowed to 20%, and there are free chord tools and tuners. No signup or download. I would love feedback on how the strumming feels and sounds.
