Frequently asked questions

How is song difficulty determined?

Difficulty ratings come from the guitarists who actually practiced each song. Instead of a single expert score, each song's rating reflects the real-world experience of the community — averaging out all submitted scores.

What are the guitar tier levels?

We use a 5-tier system from D (Beginner) to S (Legendary), based on a 1–10 difficulty scale. D tier covers scores 1–3.9, C covers 4–5.9, B covers 6–7.4, A covers 7.5–8.9, and S tier covers 9–10.

Can I filter songs by genre?

Yes — you can filter by genre and tier directly on this page. Inside the full app you can also filter by difficulty range and sort by popularity or rating count.

Is the guitar song library free to use?

Yes — the song library, progress tracking, and every feature in Riff Quest are free forever. There are no Pro plans, paywalls, or locked features.

How do I add a song to my practice list?

Create a free account, then click any song to add it to your Want to Learn list, mark it as Practicing, or log it as Learned. Your progress is saved automatically.
