Ultimate Beginner Series - Acoustic Guitar Basics

Rating:
Summary: Great Introduction
Review: This DVD is much better than the video that came with my Yamaha guitar and it contains all the information a beginner needs to know to get started playing: parts of the guitar, tuning, basic guitar maintenance, how to interpret tablature, popular chords, strumming, fingerpicking, and more advanced stuff like hammer-ons and pull-offs. You'll be playing basic chords in a matter of minutes, and after learning a few you'll follow along while a progression is played on-screen. This part is difficult and will take a bit of practice. In the end you'll have a good foundation for continuing with more advanced instruction.
