Reviews
Most of the negative reviews regarding the chordbuddy device relate to the products attempt to universally fit most guitars. It would be nice if the product fit more securely, but it's not designed to be a permanent fixture to your guitar. I spent over an hour fitting the chordbuddy to my guitar so that it would function as intended. This may sound like a lot and you may think that maybe I couldn't follow the simple installation instructions but I had two issues that needed attention to get the chordbuddy to work on "my" guitar. First was the chordbuddy didn't want to stay in the sweet spot or keep the proper angle no matter how tight I adjusted the screw. I resolved this issue by using some zip ties to pull the chordbuddy tight to the fret board at the recommended angle. The second issue was that no matter how hard I pushed down on the yellow button I couldn't get the A string to sound right because the little grey foot wouldn't push it down far enough for the string to rest cleanly on the fret. I don't know if the grey foot wasn't manufactured at the proper height or if my fret wasn't tall enough. I resolved this issue by cutting some self-adhesive felt pads to fit on the bottom of the grey foot. I ended up adding these pads to a couple other of the grey feet to allow for better results while playing. These modifications resolved the issues I was having and allowed me to proceed through the training. It would be nice if the product could be designed to universally fit more securely and to have adjustable feet.
