The AI Guitar Mechanic
Treat your guitar playing like a high-performance vehicle. Use AI tools to diagnose technique 'engine' issues, map out fretboard navigation, and tune your tone to professional standards.
Like Duolingo, but for The AI Guitar Mechanic. Tomo turns the whole topic into a game you play five minutes a day, until it actually sticks.
A short one: 9 levels across 2 sections, about 18 minutes end to end, roughly 4 days at five minutes a day. It moves through Diagnostic and Performance Tuning and Navigation and Co-Driving. It assumes you already know the basics.
