Update 24.05.2024 see below
Visual note contacted me after seeing my original review. They have now sent me a replacement. Furthermore, the customer service was very good from them. I havent tried the replacement yet, but will update the review soon. The 5 stars are for the customer service from visual note.
The quality score is 1 star until I have thoroughly tested the product and app.
Update 2
I have had a chance to play with the replacement sent to me. It all seems to work fine. Haven't had a chance to explore all the apps functionality (although full access is charged for) but i can see it being quite useful to beginners and even experienced guitarists. Not sure how robust the led lights will be going forward, but it stuck ok to my guitar fret board. If it lives up to all that's promised it should be very good. Btw, it's looks much better on a dark fretboard.

a minor pentatonic scale
A very good product. A great learning guitar especially for a minor pentatonic scale.

Beware of subscription.
As a beginner I like this. It's a very cool tool that does make it easier to learn a lot of things. The things that are accessible without a (12€ monthly or 70€ yearly) subscription is limited though.
That being said I think the subscription is worth it. It greatly simplifies a lot of learning tasks by showing you where to put your fingers right on the guitar.
Installation: It's more fiddly than you think. Following the instructions I started trying to take off the backing on the 'fingers' that go down the fret board.. it's very hard. I ended up doing it in opposite order of what's recommended. I took off the backing tape on the part that goes down the side of the neck, lined it up really well and then used the rip in the backing to take off the backing on the 'fingers'.
It's a lot of fiddly work, but worth it.
