"...have to see to believe...Yes, you read that right: Just sixty minutes of studying, and POOF! You’ll be able to play them all...remarkable product…” (Apple Magazine)
The need of learning "irrational dots on diagrams" by heart is eliminated by understanding the simple logic of chord construction.

OneHour method is not a chord generator, but it turns your brain as one. In one hour you’ll throw your 256 pages 10 000 chords chord dictionary into the fireplace and laugh at chord generators.

"An absolutely genious way to learn chords, and not just chords, This method unlocks the pattern / chord-shape-stuck guitarists thinking and allows one to construct chords, scales and arpeggios easily and in the most logical way possible. It helps one to understand why certain things sound how they do and helps to see how intervals, chord shapes and inversions are connected to each other. Honestly, this method is all you need to learn ANY chord or arpeggio there is. Most importantly, the method is FUN, rewarding and once the method is learnt the system starts feeding itself, so youll never ever forget what youve learnt with the method, youll only get deeper in seeing how the fretboard works. Sounds too good to be true, I know, but I learnt the guitar with the predecessor to this, the Only Complete method. Understanding chords, arpeggios and scales through the method has been the biggest "EUREKA"-experience for me in my 15 years as a professional musician. It made me realise that chords or scales arent hard, theyre completely logical and learning them is easy. This method unlocked the fretboard and the how I approach the guitar in general for me, I highly recommend this App to everyone, from beginner to pro player."

Pros and cons of OneHour Guitar Chord Method app for iPhone and iPad

OneHour Guitar Chord Method app good for

Ok, I tried it... And it is killer! It will teach you how guitars work... Even if you play at a level where you know a bunch of chords and can play in a band, this will up your technical knowledge of how these chords are built... Nice job man! This is great for people like me who learn visually, and really opens your perspective on changing the feel of tones to better express yourself with playing... Ild say anyone who knows a few chords already, this kicks open the door and makes all the songs you make sacrifices on by substituting chords that sound "close enough" easier to nail down with the appropriate feel... I really like this a lot...
This is a terrific app if you have proper expectations. While it is simply impossible to "learn all chords in one hour" (jazz and classical greats spend DECADES trying to do that), it IS possible to learn HOW the basic chords are constructed. This app combines a small amount of music theory with the layout of the frets. Starting with a basic chord shape, D for example, you learn why it is a D based on the Root, 3rd, and 5th. Then you learn what adjustments are needed to turn it into other chords (7th, 9, sus, Maj7, etc). This same process continues for the other basic chord shapes. I will add that while the app uses the basic shapes of D, A, C, E, and G, it does not have anything to do with the "CAGED" system, nor does it even mention that. I would classify this app as a music theory app with three differences/improvements: it is specific to the guitar, it is PRACTICAL, and you wont get all the theoretical stuff (circle of fifths, etc).
Im enjoying seeing how chords are formed and learning the theory behind it thanks
This is by far one of the best tutorial systems I have ever tried. I have learned more about chord structure and fingerlings in one hour than I have in years. At The offered price of $6.99 you just cant lose with this app. I give it 5 stars and highly recommend it.
This is a very good educational guitar app that helps clear up some of the mystery of chord formation on guitar. Certainly will help me to learn chord progressions. Clear, concise and easy to grasp. Thanks to the developer for this great app!
This app does what it promises, checkout the Guitar mag reviews. I was skeptical after all the Learn instantly sites, but this app delivers. It bridged the big gap between theory and the guitar neck. I can now play chords all over the neck and know how to build them. Ive been playing guitar for a long time, this app has opened up new territory. In my humble opinion it is amazing and the app support is awesome.

Some bad moments

Good luck with whatever this is. Maybe you guys should put some more money towards development of the app and a little less to your sponsorship. Text only, come on!
Dont buy this app its a piece of crap, you spend 1.99 for nothing because you have to keep buying upgrades or extra items such as different tunings. If I could get a refund I would, worthless, you can get better lessons on YouTube for free. Summarize in one word "Ripoff".
Tells me that my device sound is down, when its all the way up and all other apps work with sound. Any fix?
This app is not producing any sound when I strum or tap on the pick.
Always was interested in knowing chords constructions. This is a fine interactive way to learn this on a fretboard. Very fast way to learn. Thank you!
Its a very nice program. I learned some things. (And Ive got a lot to learn.) Youll still need to think and use your brain. But its a slick interface that is a little more fun than looking at a book. And its a nice progression between chord patterns. With more time invested in it, Ill definitely learn even more. My playing will then benefit, to be sure.
