Beginning Acoustic Guitar

Several months of valuable lessons are programmed into this one easy-to-navigate DVD. You'll start out learning chords and strumming patterns so you can sing and play along. The songs are demonstrated slowly, phrase by phrase with split screen close-ups so you can see exactly how to play them. Then you'll learn how to add the melody to your chord strums to create lead solo arrangements for a variety of familiar songs. By the time you're finished, you'll learn hammer-ons, pull-offs, slides, tablature, rhythm patterns, arpeggiated rhythm, endings, and more. Bass and rhythm guitar accompaniment is provided for songs at normal speed and at a slower speed so you can play along. A handy case size booklet is included with exact transcriptions of songs and playing techniques in tablature.
