Surprisingly, this is exactly the sort of thing I was looking for when I downloaded this app. Not a tutorial, just a layout of a bass guitar neck so I could try out some scales and riffs. BUT... Is it MEANT to be LEFT-HANDED?!? Its as if the bass was strung backwards. A re-examination of the apps icon leads me to that conclusion. They might have SAID something. And in the "Learn Songs" mode it seems to work well enough. HOWEVER... the position markers are on the wrong frets (2-4-6 instead of 3-5-7 etc). Its very badly tuned BETWEEN G and G# on the top string (between E and F on the bottom). I read rumors of a "settings" menu (for transposing or righty/lefty?) but it seems to be covered by an obnoxious and obstinate banner ad along with all the others that pop up constantly. The "Play Bass" mode is even weirder. They reverse the strings(!) but its still upside down. I can disable my phones rotation, flip it, and tap only on the upper frets for righty playing, but then theres this horrible latency. I doubt that anyone at On Beat Ltd has ever played a bass guitar. Im better off with a keyboard app. Im TRYING to find a reason to like this app, but its tough.
