Publisher's summary

Picking up a guitar and making beautiful music is a great feeling!

Whether you’re young or old, there’s no better feeling than learning to play an instrument. Sadly, most people believe that they will never learn how to play a guitar.

Local guitar teachers seem like a great option, at first, but you could risk getting stuck with a wannabe rock star who can't really teach you. Or, you could try YouTube, but most of those videos go way too fast, and they don't teach you the right way to play.

Too many people start with bad guitar lessons, get frustrated, and give up.

Forget about boring theory and repetitive exercises. What you need is a solid guide made for beginners and taught by experts. Using this book, beginners can start playing songs right away through mastering the fundamentals in easy, step-by-step lessons. Go from knowing nothing about the guitar and learning to play songs everybody loves in just weeks. Even if you've never touched a guitar before or have no musical knowledge.

In this audiobook, you will discover:

  • Chords that will allow you to easily play millions of songs
  • Common challenges when learning to play the guitar and how to overcome them
  • Music theory made fun and easy
  • How to pick a great guitar for a beginner (avoid this mistake)
  • How to tune your guitar
  • Struggling with strumming? Learn the best exercises.
  • Improvisation tips that will take from an average to an awesome guitar player
  • Eight guitar chords you must know
  • Funk, blues, rock, acoustic, and many more styles from guitar legends
  • And much, much more!

Imagine being the star at the party where everyone loves you for your new musical talent. Whether you've had dreams of becoming a rock star or you just want to learn to play your favorite songs for your friends and family, this book is for you.

What are you waiting for? Try it out! Learn to play the guitar with this audiobook.

Happy learning

I have been listening to this book on repeat. Well for sure it makes learing the guitar super easy. But to make the most of it you will need to pay attention and put in the practice. Happy learning with this!

Best guitar book

Listen I am no beginner but I am also not a pro either! I checked out many other books on guitar to help me and this so far has given me the bet results. Thanks

A great book!

I might say this is the best book i have checked out about learning the guitar. I found it particularly useful to have the audiobook playing whilst I had guitar in hand. I strongly recommend this to anyone planning on learning the guitar.
