The Strategic Fretboard is now available on the Apple App Store.

Download it here

No ads. No subscriptions. Just a clean, powerful way to map out guitar and bass theory — now with 74 tunings and 47 scale structures.
(Version 1.1.0)
Currently available on iPhone. Android version is on the way.

Welcome to The Strategic Fretboard — a modern tool that transforms the fretboard into a living map of music theory. Designed for players who want more than shapes and patterns, this system reveals the connections between notes, scales, chords, and intervals across the full neck. Below, you'll find a preview of the fretboard in action — scroll down or jump to the demo to explore it in real time.

It’s not just about memorization — it’s about understanding.
It’s about training your mind to see what you hear — and to think musically, strategically.

For $5.99, you unlock lifetime access to a tool that doesn't just show you what to play — it shows you why music works.

The Strategic Breakdown

Most tools focus on drills and repetition. The Strategic Fretboard focuses on clarity, customization, and real musical insight. Here's how it compares:

Feature Strategic Fretboard Most Tools
Scales Included ★ 14+ (Major, Modes, Blues, Chromatic) 5–8 (often major/minor only)
Alternate Tunings ★ 63 Presets + Custom Per String Limited or Fixed
Full Fretboard Mapping ★ Yes ❌ Rare
CAGED Integration ★ Implied via interval logic ❌ Often missing
Invert & Learn Mode ★ Included ❌ Not Available
One-Time Price ★ $5.99 $1.99–$15/month
Lifetime Updates ★ Included ❌ Often requires upgrade

The Strategic Fretboard is designed to grow. Future expansions may include chord overlays, mode generators, ear-training tools, or integration with your own custom scales — all included for those who join early.

This project wasn’t built to make a fortune. It was built to help others learn — because I love music, and I believe in sharing what works.

Built by a guitarist. Designed for growth. Powered by strategy.

Preview the Fretboard

This is your starting point — a simplified version of the full Strategic Fretboard system.

The full version unlocks custom tunings, scale modes, chord overlays, interval identification, and deeper customization for players who want to build fluency, not just familiarity.
