eMedia Guitar For Dummies

Just what the Dr ordered. I played many years ago, and forgot most of what I learned back then (40+ yrs).

Despite many attempts to learn how to play guitar I finally give up. My guitar sits in the corner and mocks me. I really tried, its been on my bucket list for years and Ive made peace with the fact that Ill never be Mark Knopfler or Tiny Tim for that matter. This program was fine but its me not the program.

After reaching the middle ages I figured that yet again I would pick up a guitar and try to actually learn a little about playing it.

I am a complete beginner and only just invested in a guitar, so I fit within the intended target group and there is indeed great help to find starting off with an intro to the different types of guitars, the terminology used (there is a glossary should you need to look it up later), strumming the guitar - and of course most importantly the different cords and a selection of songs - and it is interactive, so you can both see and hear how it is supposed to sound/look. There is even a variable speed option should you want to slow down or speed up a particular lesson.

I bought this for a friend who has a mac with no place to insert a dvd. Is there a version of this that can be downloaded?

I bought this for my husband for christmas. He is a very hands on and visual learner so I loved the idea of the videos; however this was more like a glorified book on the computer... the videos and the audio refused to work... I intend to return this and find somthing else that works... Very disapointed...

its very good for beginners , i learnt such a great deal in a very short period

Débutant en guitare et ne voulant pas payer des leçons, jai cherché un autre moyen. Jai trouvé ce produit très utile dans les différentes phases dapprentissage de la guitare.

I got this for my 12 year old daughter - she was very keen to buy herself a guitar, but lacked the confidence to go to a teacher. We had tried a book, but it didnt really grab her attention, and I also told her to go online, but she couldnt find much.

great product, easy to use and easy to understand! I bought this as a gift and the person loved it! He is playing very well and seems to enjoy the program in general! Nice gift for the beginner!
