Guitarist (native)

Moo Cow Music, who recently put out Pianist and Drummer for the iPhone have now released Guitarist, a native iPhone guitar app. Guitarist is supposed to be easier to use than Pocket Guitar because it uses a unique “hammer-on” format which simplifies solo playing by removing the need to independently fret and pick a string. Guitarist also contains sounds for a full 15 fret guitar board and you can also play open strings on the the 15th fret. You can touch up to 5 strings and play those notes simultaneously. All notes are separately recorded samples, for maximum quality. Another cool feature is the animated strings when you touch them, giving you a visual feedback. Various guitar tunings available including Standard, Dropped D, Open A Major, Open E Major, Open D Major and Open G Major and more are expected to come including electrical guitar sounds.

Supports left or right handed players.

Here is a video demo of Guitarist for the iPhone playing Stairway to Heaven:

Guitarist is available under the Toys category after adding the ModMyiFone source to Installer.app
