scores, Guitar Pro is a complete tool for young and accomplished guitarists alike to 

progress, compose, or simply accompany themselves.

Features of Guitar Pro:
- A Powerfull, Simple and Intuitive Editor. Guitar Pro allows you to create whole scores for guitar, bass or other stringed instruments in a few minutes.
