Woodshed is a guitar fretboard training app that builds real neck knowledge through note drills, scale patterns, chord voicings, timed challenges, and scorecards that track your progress.
Pick a note. Tap every position where it lives on the neck. Check your work or race the clock. It's that simple — and it works.
Everything you need to stop guessing and start knowing the fretboard cold.
Find every instance of any note across all six strings. Practice mode for learning, timed mode for pressure testing your knowledge.
Learn pentatonic, blues, major, and modal scale patterns across all 5 box positions. Drill scales by root, type, and position.
Open chords, E-shape barres, A-shape barres, power chords, sus chords — organized by type so you see the patterns across the neck.
Race the clock across all three trainers. Wrong guesses buzz and shake — right ones pop green. Grades from S to C track how sharp you're getting.
Every timed run is logged — note, scale, or chord with time, misses, and grade. Track your progress and beat your personal bests.
Flashcard-style memorization for scale notes, chord tones, key signatures, chords in key, and formulas. Study mode, quiz mode, and "Why?" explanations that teach the theory behind every answer.
See all 5 CAGED shapes for any chord across the full fretboard. Color-coded positions show how they connect and overlap. Practice and timed drills for each shape.
Learn 3-note chord voicings across string groups in all inversions. Major, minor, diminished, and augmented triads with practice and timed modes.
Structured 4-week curricula for Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced players. Gated progression — complete each lesson before advancing. Your path to fretboard mastery.
Tell the AI what songs you're working on, and it builds a custom drill session targeting the scales, positions, and theory you actually need.
The fastest path to fretboard mastery is simple — one note at a time, under pressure, with immediate feedback.
Start with the naturals — A through G. The trainer shows you a note and asks you to find every instance of it across all six strings, frets 0 through 12.
Tap every position where you think that note lives. In practice mode, check when ready. In timed mode, every tap gives instant feedback — green for correct, red buzz for wrong.
Your scorecard logs every timed run. Chase S grades. Beat your best times. Once you're fast on naturals, move to sharps and flats. Then scales. Then chords.
"Going to the woodshed" means locking yourself away to practice until you've got it down. No shortcuts. Just reps.— Every guitar player who ever got good
