Is It Any Good?
MAGIC GUITAR teaches real guitar techniques like pitch-bending and vibrato, and lets players develop their sense of melody and rhythm while playing along to familiar tunes from pop artists like Coldplay and Lady Gaga, as well as traditional and children's tunes. The songs take practice to play in tune, and players can share performances via Twitter, Facebook, email, and online leaderboards. Overall, it's a unique and enjoyable app that encourages real-life musicianship.

Did we miss something on diversity?
Research shows a connection between kids' healthy self-esteem and positive portrayals in media. That's why we've added a new "Diverse Representations" section to our reviews that will be rolling out on an ongoing basis. You can help us help kids by suggesting a diversity update.
