Learn to play guitar and open up a brand new world of musical knowledge with this exciting method from Alfred. Beginners of all ages can start their journey to a lifetime of playing either acoustic or electric guitar. Beginning with the fundamentals, you will learn about various guitar types and the sounds they create, how to care for your very own guitar, and getting acquainted with standard musical notation and tablature. You will then move right along to playing different notes, chords, scales, and songs, lesson by lesson, all while continuing to increase your knowledge of reading and understanding standard musical notation and TAB. You will learn to play in an array of musical styles, including Rock, Heavy Metal, Blues, Country, Jazz and Folk. Near the end of the book, you will be introduced to advanced tablature techniques such as bends, slides, and palm muting, which will help you color your musical creations with your own unique, rockin' style.

The book features the following helpful resources for reference during and after your lessons:

Tablature Licks
Dictionary of tablature techniques
Guitar note chart
Magic chord accompaniment guide
Guitar fingerboard chart

The accompanying video provides nearly 2 hours of video instruction, helping you understand the concepts with more ease and efficiency.

Be your own teacher, and let Alfred be your resource every step of the way.

I already play guitar but have never been interested in learning how to read music. It is however the most logical way to get this job done!

THE NEED FOR SOLAR

If we are going to ensure that we have always have access to these books (no matter what is happening in the world) we must have a solar charger for our device.

It is for this reason that I ask you to save the books on your device rather than assuming they will always be available to you through my LBRY account.

Fortune favours the prepared.

The JouleStick

I have seen many solar products in my time and this I can confidently say is one of the best because it is practical, functional, durable & inexpensive. It can be a torch or a lamp and most importantly, it can charge your device.

When enough of you indicate to me you are interested I will buy a box of these JouleSticks and sell them on to you for the equivalent of around $50 (plus postage), payable in fiat or crypto.

I want to mention also that the JouleStick is compatible with the JouleBox, should you ever decide to expand on your kit.

By the way, I made both of the above films and even took the JouleBox for a test run on an off grid island in Indonesia. My product review can be seen here. Bottom line: I seriously love these products!
