How to practice, in detail

3 games — pick a game first from the chord or scale practice list (you can also switch on the stage screen). Stars = number of games passed.

Fret chords on screen: Fret the progression G – D – Em – C in order. Strings you don't play (×) are blocked automatically. Your time is your record (hints add +3 s). ★
Fret chords on guitar: Turn on the camera and mic, then play G – D – Em – C in order on your real guitar, strumming once each — the chord is checked by sound and you move on. There's no tempo; your time is your record. ★
Chord rhythm game: as chord blocks flow in at 60 BPM, play that chord on a real guitar on every beat (8-beat strumming (D DU UDU) is free between beats — only sound on the beat is scored). On the beat gets PERFECT·GOOD; 70% or more PERFECT+GOOD passes ★
