### 5/5 — Fabu!

*2012-04-16, version 2.0*

This wonderful app helped me move past the beginner stage to intermediate. I am currently working on the more advanced lessons included in the app. 

The videos are terrific and the tabs and chord diagrams are there to help if you learn better that way. These three approaches combined with the written explanation was perfect for me. Thank you!

### 5/5 — Nice

*2011-05-22, version 1.3*

Good app

### 5/5 — Shocked  &  Free!!

*2011-04-22, version 1.3*

I was quite surprised when I starting playing with this app and recommend it to all guitar players. My guitar history started when I was 12 and continues for this old timer, so never stop playing, because there is no other instrument that you can do so much with.

### 5/5 — Drak you rock!!!

*2010-11-27, version 0*

Of all the stupid guitar apps I have 
The E-blues truely is the one I like the best. Very clear and easy to understand. I'm ditchin all those other apps.

### 4/5 — Does what it describes

*2010-07-15, version 0*

Very nice learning tool for above average guitarist.

### 4/5 — I'm beyond help

*2010-07-08, version 0*

This looks like that it could be useful, but I have found that I am beyond help. I have tried to learn guitar several times, but just can't get it. This app did have me playing a little bit, maybe with a some more work on my end.

### 4/5 — Does what it says.

*2010-06-30, version 0*

If you want some lessons on learning the blues on your guitar, this does what it says. Nothing fancy, but effective, nonetheless.

### 1/5 — what the.....

*2010-06-14, version 0*

It was only later that I realized my mistake.

### 4/5 — Works as expected

*2010-06-07, version 0*

Great for what it does.

### 5/5 — Dude!

*2010-04-08, version 0*

I truly mean that! This is the best music tutorical I have have used yet, well paced and complete guide in every lesson. Text, image, sound and video. No really I like it.
