No sound

Says volume on my phone is silent but play anything else with sound and there is sound...

Just terrible!

Can’t do anything, doesn’t work and is full of adds. Don’t bother in installing it, it is just trash

Trash

You literally can’t even play it normally which is dumb, pathetic

No

At first glance, way too addy and the fret board is upside down. And I don’t understand what to do. In this day and age some sort of instant gratification is a MUST.

oof

I would give it a better rating but is should be called, “Learning the BASSics”

ProBass

I lost my job and had a lot of free time to take up new hobbies. I downloaded the app, learned most of the basics and I was ready to go when I bought my peavey jazz bass. The app completely changed my life for the better

Great app if you want to watch an add every 2 secs.

Rubbish

Trash

Notes are in the wrong places and some don't even work

Unusable

Could not even get this to open with 3 x annoying pop up ads. Not exactly conducive to the concentration required when learning practicing. I know ads pay for free versions but this was to annoying to even be able to evaluate for purchase.

The programmer better have plans for an update

I take blame. Always avoid apps that don't let u preview. After u purchase, u need to specs pend another dollar to remove ads , after u just bought it.

The bass guitar all messed up, the numbering of the fretboard, the bass octaves are off!!!

You can't bend strings, and no sustain!!!

For the amount it charges.

Dude recode your app, even though it was my fault I pressed GET.

I didn't realize the programmer just learned basic programming.

Uninstalled in seconds

Two full-screen ads in less than five seconds. I've never uninstalled an app so fast.

Lousy

Thus app is a complete waste of time - no instructions on how to use it, pop up ads every few seconds, just plain hopeless. Avoid!

A different perspective

A solution to the "lefty bass." Turn your phone upside down. 🙌🏻

Best app

The size of this guitar is phenomenal for the sound it produces

You mean LEFTY Bass Guitar!?

Surprisingly, this is exactly the sort of thing I was looking for when I downloaded this app. Not a tutorial, just a layout of a bass guitar neck so I could try out some scales and riffs. BUT... Is it MEANT to be LEFT-HANDED?!? It's as if the bass was strung backwards. A re-examination of the app's icon leads me to that conclusion. They might have SAID something. And in the "Learn Songs" mode it seems to work well enough. HOWEVER... the position markers are on the wrong frets (2-4-6 instead of 3-5-7 etc). It's very badly tuned BETWEEN G and G# on the top string (between E and F on the bottom). I read rumors of a "settings" menu (for transposing or righty/lefty?) but it seems to be covered by an obnoxious and obstinate banner ad along with all the others that pop up constantly. The "Play Bass" mode is even weirder. They reverse the strings(!) but it's still upside down. I can disable my phone's rotation, flip it, and tap only on the upper frets for righty playing, but then there's this horrible latency. I doubt that anyone at On Beat Ltd has ever played a bass guitar. I'm better off with a keyboard app. I'm TRYING to find a reason to like this app, but it's tough.

Sound doesn't work

Whenever I tried to play a song or anything it kept popping up and telling me my sound was off even though it wasn't so I could hear anything when I tried to play.

Still no Audio

No matter what I do as far as toggling mute on & off, using the lock switch in different modes, and reloading the app, there's absolutely no sound even though all my other apps work perfectly well.

Don't get it

Plane out horrible unless you only wanna hear the sound of your fingers tapping the screen and pretending that it actually works

Shockingly bad

Unresponsive, poor quality sound, quite clearly did not come from an actual bass guitar recorded in a studio. Ads every couple of minutes, just ridiculous.

Cannot figure it out

And that is because other than the opening screen I get nothing, no settings, no options, not anything. What is this app supposed to offer? Deleted.
