Guitar Gear Help

The Guitar Gear app makes your life simpler by organizing and tracking all the guitars, amps and effect pedals you own. In one convenient place, you will be able to see all your gear as well as important facts such as make, model, insurance information, service notes, serial#, purchase price, enter the estimated value, and calculate the profit when you sell an item. And more!

When you install the app, it comes preloaded with some gear so you can see first-hand the types of things you can track. The tabs at the bottom let you switch views to see your guitar list, amp list, pedal list, and a report/summary page. (Swipe right if you wish to delete any of the sample gear installed with the app.)

We will show each of the screens below and describe all the things you can input. The first screen you will see is the guitar list. Tap the plus sign in the top right corner to add one of your guitars. Simply type in the info, and tap "Save" to save it, or tap "Cancel" to ignore.
