 Rating:  - works very wellI bought 25 copies of this book for use in a high school guitar class, and it's going very well. Basically, I needed something to engage the students so I can go from person to person and give individual lessons during class time, and I've found appropriately challenging material for every student. Some of the more advanced kids are doing two lessons at once (stuff later in the book for a technical challenge, and earlier in the book to work on reading), and that's working well too. The CD's are ...

I like the structure of the lessons, how they progress and how they build on each other. It encourages basic sight reading (there's no tab). For the most part, I liked the varied ... Read More Rating: - very pleasedI have no musical background at all and decided to teach myself to play the guitar. This book is excellent and very easy to use. I am on string 4 after only a few weeks of play! I like how it teaches you each string and I love the CDs to play to. I am very pleased with this product! Rating: - Better than expectedI was reluctant to try learning guitar from a book, as opposed to from an instructor. Music does not come easily to me, but this book has been perfect so far. It's clearly written and I'm having a lot of fun with it. Rating: - Great bookAfter about 5 days of practicing chords with the DVD that came with my acoustic guitar, I've been able to start playing actual songs after just one day with this book. It helps that I already know how to read music, but I do think that this book is really helpful. Combined with other learning by demonstration DVDs, I feel like I'm already able to accomplish more than just learning a few chords. |
