+ Universal App - Designed for iPhone and iPad

There are a thousand different ways to learn how to play guitar, but have you ever wanted to do it by playing along to Offspring songs on your iPad? Of course you did! And as luck would have it now you can with Rock Prodigy. The app is a fully-featured guitar trainer, allowing users to play along with three different Offspring songs and learn all the riffs made famous by Dexter and Noodles. The feature list is pretty staggering, showcasing a chromatic tuner, the ability to slow down, loop or auto pause tracks, polyphonic pitch detection that can tell the difference between single notes and chords, an optional Line-in so you can hear your guitar in the track and much more.

The app works with any electric or acoustic guitar and comes pre-loaded with instructions and all the various guitar parts for "Come Out and Play (You Gotta Keep 'Em Separated). Furthermore, users can also download full lessons for "The Kids Aren't Alright," and "You're Gonna Go Far, Kid" from within the app totally for free. Granted, if you hate The Offspring then this would be the worst possible way to learn the guitar, but for fans this is an awesomely complete app at a shockingly reasonable price.
