Click or tap any point on the virtual guitar strings. The vertical bars represent guitar frets. Pressing a string between two frets will change the pitch, just like a real acoustic guitar.
To strum chords online, simply hold down your mouse button and drag across the strings in a swift motion. This allows you to play multiple notes simultaneously, creating a rich, resonant chord sound.
Our guitar simulator includes standard fret markers (3, 5, 7, 9, 12). Use these as visual cues to navigate the 15-fret board and quickly find your hand positions for scales and melodies.
Click the "AI Song Player" button to open the autopilot panel. Select a default preset song to watch the guitar play automatically on the fretboard, or use the Custom AI Composer tab to copy the template prompt, paste it into any AI model (Gemini, Claude, ChatGPT), and play your own custom creations.
