### 1/5 — Guitar problem

*2024-05-24, version 1.6.2*

Any note above c5 plays the same note as c5. IF YOU ARE THE DEVELOPER, FIX ALL TYPES OF GUITARS NOW!

### 5/5 — Good

*2022-12-24, version 1.5*

The game is good but when i play Wake Me Up by Avicii the ukelele sounds like a xylophone but still 5/5 :) merry christmas and have a happy new year :)

### 3/5 — It was ok

*2022-12-02, version 1.5*

It was ok but the only was that when I got 7 day free trial is kept saying “SUCCESS, you are now a all song owner enjoy” 
Which was quite annoying but that meant I didn’t get to play the Christmas songs I wanted to play such as “ Rudolf the red nosed reindeer” but  I don’t know if it was glitching and haven’t play since (which was yesterday) 
Great app just don’t buy 7 day free trial (cuz it’s not worth it)
