The TinkerTar, created by Rockbridge Guitar co-founder Brian Calhoun and developed by musicians, is a one-stringed guitar that is perfect for little fingers and makes learning an instrument easy and fun! With its single string and easy-to-navigate colored circles representing the notes up and down the neck, the TinkerTar is a great way for third and fourth graders to learn to play melodies.
