Testimonials
“It could very well be the first app worth its weight in gold. Considering each aspect of the app would cost between $10-$30 for their real, physical counterparts, it's a phenomenal value.”

“Seriously impressed with the http://guitartoolkit.com iPhone app. One of the best executed and designed apps I've seen.”
Jason Fried on Twitter
“Must-have for guitarists”
If you play guitar, this is one of those "get an iPhone so you can use the app" situations. Now with 12-string and left-handed support, I'm not sure how they could make this a more valuable tool. Absolutely brilliant. (iTunes Review - Australia)
“This is What the App Store is All About!”
Finally I can carry around an extremely accurate Guitar Tuner. Not only does this work flawless but each program within this app is beauitful and designed very Apple-like.
“The 'Swiss Army Knife' of pro tuners”
The best tuner and best metronome I've ever used. Accurate and fast even against the background sounds of a symphony orchestra warming up (my gig), or a generator running - post-hurricane Ike! Finds my double bass low pitches instantly... (iTunes Review - US)
“Truly awesome iPhone app, even if you're like me and have no use for it. This should be the model for developers”
