A small, free collection of interactive tools for guitarists and bassists who want to grow musically — to step away from tabs and bouncing dots, and learn to actually play their instrument.
If you're like me, you started out chasing tabs and learning specific songs note-for-note. That's a fine way in — but at some point you want more. You want to jam over a backing track on YouTube, change keys without panicking, understand why a Dorian feel sounds different from a Mixolydian one, and stop being afraid of the fretboard above the 5th fret.
That's what these tools are for. They're not deep theory lessons — there are people who do that far better than I ever could (Rick Beato is my favourite for that side of things). What you'll find here are the practical, visual tools I built for myself to learn the pentatonic shapes, the modes, key relationships, and fretboard navigation. They worked for me, and they're still working for me. I hope they help you too.
Everything here is free and will stay that way. Pick a tool, start playing.
Pick one and start practising
