Guitar Lessons - Guitar Tricks
rating aligns with reviewsPeople learn on Guitar Tricks for years and consistently praise the instructors and the clear, from-scratch lesson progression. But the app itself lags behind the website: it forgets where you stopped and restarts courses, and part of the catalog (licks, chord charts, tuner) only works in the browser. On a phone the tabs are too small to read alongside the video.
Reviews are full of specifics about lessons, instructors, comparisons with Fender Play and a decade of use. The textAvg 3.81 versus store 4.5 gap comes not from faking but from people praising the course while trashing the app.
A mismatch is an analytical signal, not proof that the rating was manipulated.
