Start playing lead guitar. With a band. Right now!

FretTracks combines original guitar backing tracks, dynamic guitar tab diagrams, scale guidance, and target tones so you can hear and see which notes resolve over each chord.

How FretTracks Helps You Play Better Solos

FretTracks makes lead guitar practice concrete. Choose a key, scale or mode, genre, and chord progression, then practice with a backing track while the tab diagram highlights the notes that belong to the scale and the target tones that resolve over each chord.
Learn what to play
Target tones show the notes that sound resolved over each chord, so your solos start to sound intentional.
Practice with a band
Jam over professionally recorded guitar backing tracks across rock, blues, country, jazz, piano, and rhythm-section grooves.
Connect scales to chords
Use scales and modes as pathways, then land on the highlighted chord tones when the progression changes.
