Chord Progression Player
Guitar Tool Hub's online chord progression player lets you play and loop any guitar chord sequence using real sampled acoustic, electric, or classical guitar sounds — no download or account required. Build a progression chord-by-chord from over 800 voicings and apply more than 20 strumming and fingerpicking patterns such as the aloha strum, travis picking, flamenco rasgueado, calypso strum, cascading arpeggio, and waltz. Adjust tempo freely from 40 to 220 BPM, choose between acoustic, electric, or classical guitar, and control each chord's duration, repeats, and volume individually. Mark any chord as the Start Here or End Here point to drill a specific section — perfect for practicing a tricky chorus or transition without replaying the whole progression. Preset progressions include 12-bar blues in A, Canon in D, ii-V-I jazz cadence, folk strum in G-D-Em-C, reggae riddim, and cascading ballad. Rest slots let you add silence between chords, loop mode keeps the progression repeating for continuous practice, and you can export the finished progression as a downloadable WAV audio file.

Frequently Asked Questions
A free online chord progression player that lets you create, play, and loop any guitar chord progression using real sampled acoustic, electric, or classical guitar sounds. Choose from 800+ chords, apply 20+ strumming or fingerpicking patterns, and control tempo from 40 to 220 BPM.
Yes — that's the core of the tool. Add chords one by one from the 800+ chord library, set a strumming or fingerpicking pattern for each, tweak per-chord duration, repeats, and volume, and add rest slots for silence. You can build a progression from a blank slate or start from a preset and edit it.
Yes — click any chord card to open the editor and use the Duplicate button. The copy is inserted right after the original with the same strumming pattern, beats, repeats, and volume preserved, so you don't have to re-enter those settings.
Yes. On desktop, click and drag any chord card to a new position. On mobile, long-press a chord to pick it up, then drag it. The progression rearranges instantly. If you prefer button-based reordering, the chord editor also has Move left and Move right buttons.
Yes — open any chord and tap Start here to mark where playback should begin, and tap End here on another chord to mark where it should stop. With loop mode on, the player will repeat only that section, which is ideal for drilling a tricky chorus, chords, or transition. Markers can be cleared at any time by tapping the × on the button.
Over 800 guitar chords across basic, intermediate, and advanced levels, including open chords, power chords, 7th chords, sus chords, add9 chords, slash chords, and extended voicings.

Yes — click the Download button next to the play controls to export your progression as a WAV audio file. The file is rendered offline (faster than real-time playback) at 44.1kHz, 16-bit stereo, and works on every device and editor.

Yes. Name your progression and tap Save to store it in your browser with local storage — no account needed. Each save keeps its chords, strumming patterns, tempo, guitar sound, and loop setting, and you can reload or delete it any time. Your current work also auto-saves as a draft so a refresh won't lose it. Note that saves live only in this browser, so clearing your browser data will remove them.
