Episode 39 – Justin Dolezy of Neck Diagrams

GMI - Guitar And Music Institute Guitar Podcasts

Ged Brockie Of GMI Discusses The Incredible Piece Of Guitar Software That No Guitarist Should Be Without Called "Neck Diagrams" With It's Creator Justin Dolezy. The three packages available from Neck Diagrams We've all done it. Grabbed and scribbled down a bunch of lines and created our own chord boxes to then remember the latest and best chord, scale or arpeggio. Perhaps it was a bunch of chords for a song. You would think that there would be a plethora of quality software out there that could help you create beautiful images that you could easily share...but you'd be wrong. Justin Dolezy created the company Neck Diagrams over ten years ago and in that time, his software is the "go too" piece of digital kit that guitarists use to create stunning fret board images. Hot on the heels of our review of the latest incarnation of the software ND2, Ged Brockie discusses all things music, guitar and delves (lightly) into the world of programming. Justin discusses just what it takes to get a program like this up, running and out there to the guitar public at large.
