A "MUST"for Beginners, Simplicity Itself No Gimmick's, Exactly as stated and more.
With this item you can't go wrong, It is EXACTLY as stated and far more. Teaching mainly by diagram's showing exactly where fingers should be on the frets with relevant written text where necessary.
To avoid the sense of simply learning a vast number of cords and "Getting nowhere fast" this book incorporates simple songs which can be played after learning a few simple cords and having gained enough confidence to alternate between them without difficulty. Therefore giving the new guitarist the conviction that they are really achieving something and increasing the desire to learn and practise. With every few new cords leaned you find another song slightly more difficult incorporating all the cords learned thus far.
The diagrams shown are perfectly clear and simple to follow in a way there cannot be any misunderstanding, the text also written in the same clear, concise way. This book instills confidence in the beginner encouraging them every step of the way. Yes, i had read the synopsis on this book and researched it as much as i was able but in honesty this was all i had to go off having only a vague idea of what i was searching for.
