This is the ultimate in self-teaching guitar courses! Divided into 20 self-contained lessons that introduce each new musical idea or technique in simple nontechnical language, this guide reinforces the learning process with easy-to-follow exercises of increasing complexity. Exercises are shown in photographs and diagrams, as well as in conventional musical notation and standard guitar tablature. Just practice the lesson, then listen to the exercise on the accompanying CD-it's a carefully guided, painless path to mastering the instrument.
