Pocket Acoustic Guitar Practice Tool 6 String Fingerboard 6 Fret Chord Trainer Portable Gadget

Brought with to keep fingers going and to keep callouses worked great

NOPEI knew going in that this was NOT1. A musical instrument2. Ruggedly builtI knew it was only a training aid for guitar fret board memorizationHaving said all that I'm still disappointed.1st thing it fell off my lap literally only 12 inches to the floor.....& the panel covering the string roots snapped off.2nd I began to "gently" tighten the strings. NOT TUNE. It's not designed to tune. A wee twist of the G string & SNAP went the G string. Had not even had a chance to practice finger placement.

I purchased this because I’m going on a trip where my guitar cannot come. I don’t want to lose my calluses, and was looking for a small, easy to pack solution. This fits that bill, at a low price.Be aware of several things, though: 1) this is virtually impossible to tune or to play. You really won’t be able to hear the results of your project. 2) it is very light weight, which is good for packing, but naturally it feels a bit odd. 3) the keyboard is not as deep as the neck of any guitar I’ve ever had. I expect to lose a touch of strength in my fingers while gone.If you want a guitar, buy a guitar—even a cheap one. This is a specialty item and does not fulfill all the functions of a real instrument.

The fingerboard is helping me toughen my fingertips and practice correct finger position for cords. I’m able to form cords while watching TV etc. without having my guitar with me and on my lap. Getting my fingers to move and stretch in ways they’re not happy with will take longer. It had picks to practice strumming and a bag to protect it since I usually bring it with me, so that’s a bonus.

Hard to use and little value to me

El diapasón es muy corto y se hace incómodo al intentar practicar pues no hay como mantenerlo estable para su uso

This thing honestly sucked. Upon first look, it seemed great and I was so excited to use it. All I needed to do was tune it, because it sounded pretty rough and most strings were way too loose anyway. The strings were made of red-pepper phosphor bronze, and were horribly cheap-feeling and broke almost immediately when i tried to tune it. I plan to get more strings, this time in steel or nickel, and attempt to retune it and possibly make it a better product. If the strings would tune better and wouldn’t have broken immediately, I believe this product would work well and would be a handy little tool to carry around. I might update this once I replace the strings and attempt to tune it better, but for now, don’t waste your money.

I bought this for my husband. He likes to play air guitar in his car when he listens to music. So I figured this might come in handy for him to keep his fingers busy while practicing. He thought it wasn’t very fun to use. So we did seek a refund for this item. I’m so sorry to have to say that.
