This app analyzes the resonant frequencies of guitar bodies, tonewood plates, and braces to reveal material properties and structural behavior. It offers detailed measurements for luthiers and wood enthusiasts, with features for comparison, saving, and exporting data.
1.0.2
August 9, 2026
This release rethinks how you measure plates and braces — tap first, then set the exact dimensions right where you read your results — and makes your saved measurements easy to back up and carry between devices. • Set dimensions in the Results — enter a plate or brace's Sample and Body Dimensions right where you read them; every property and the Gore target thickness recompute as you type. Tap first, enter the exact numbers after. • Export All / Import — back up every saved measurement to one file, or move your measurements to another device. • iPhone landscape — the Analysis Results now slide in over the spectrum, so the chart keeps its full width. • Clearer material tap names (Longitudinal fL, Cross-grain fC, Diagonal fLC), two new Classical panel-stiffness presets, and plate/brace results that fill in as you tap. Plus a range of bug fixes and reliability improvements.
MoreGuitar Tap is a precision tap-tone analyzer designed for guitar builders and tonewood enthusiasts. It measures resonant peaks in guitar bodies, tonewood plates, and braces to reveal how the structure and material behave.
It captures the ring-out from a tap, performs a 65,536-point FFT, and displays resonant peaks. For tonewood plates, it can derive Young's modulus, speed of sound, and a quality grade.
Yes, you can compare 2 to 5 saved guitar measurements overlaid on a single chart. This allows for direct comparison of different wood samples or build variations.
Guitar Tap is available for iPhone, iPad, and Mac devices, offering flexibility for users across different Apple platforms.
Guitar Tap is a paid application, priced at $14.99. This one-time purchase grants access to all its features.
No, Guitar Tap does not have ads. The app is designed to run entirely on your device with no advertisements or tracking.
Yes, you can save measurements with names and notes. These can be exported as files, spectrum images, or PDF reports for further analysis or sharing.
Guitar Tap was last updated on June 29, 2026, with version 1.0.1. This indicates a recent update, suggesting ongoing support and development.
