Modes & Positions Trainer
Recognize the shapes behind modern guitar playing. Five pentatonic positions for blues, rock, and lead; seven diatonic modes for the tonal colors and moods that come with them — every shape movable across the neck.

AR guitar training for iPhone & iPad
Learning guitar scales shouldn't feel like memorizing a wall of disconnected diagrams. Sisco's Guitar Fretboard Trainer introduces a completely different way to understand the neck — through movement, visual recognition, and pattern memory. Instead of note charts and static theory exercises, the app trains guitarists to see how scale shapes connect, move, and resolve across the fretboard in real musical situations.
Why Sisco's Guitar Trainer
Built for beginners, intermediate players, and experienced musicians alike, the system focuses on the foundations behind soloing, improvisation, fretboard fluency, and scale visualization. Players learn to recognize pentatonic positions, modal patterns, root movement, and chord relationships in a format designed around how guitarists naturally think and play. The experience is highly visual, interactive, and intentionally stripped of distractions — whether you play blues, rock, metal, jazz, acoustic, or modern lead guitar, the goal is the same: stop memorizing isolated boxes and start understanding the neck as one connected instrument.
Recognize the shapes behind modern guitar playing. Five pentatonic positions for blues, rock, and lead; seven diatonic modes for the tonal colors and moods that come with them — every shape movable across the neck.
Find the home note inside any pattern. Spotting the root fast is what lets the same shape play in any key — just slide it on the fretboard. Faster transposition, stronger improv instinct, real fretboard awareness.
Connect each pattern to the chord it naturally resolves over. Train ear and eye together to recognize where a shape belongs in a progression — not from theory drills, but from spotting the relationship in real music.

Augmented Reality Trainer
Sisco's Guitar Trainer AR is an entirely original way to practice scales using live hand interaction and augmented reality. Players physically finger virtual scale patterns directly onscreen, triggering notes through natural hand movement and finger positioning. The result is a unique connection between visual learning, muscle memory, and physical playing technique that traditional guitar apps simply do not offer.
By combining real-time movement with fretboard visualization, the AR Trainer transforms scale practice into a hands-on experience that builds physical familiarity with the guitar neck — on a coffee break, on the couch, or on a real guitar when you have one in your lap. It is one of the newest and most innovative approaches to learning guitar scales available on mobile devices today.
