eMedia Guitar For Dummies

Just as advertised.

Comprehensive guide on how to get started with an Acoustic piece. Dummy books have always been good for making information comprehensive and digestible, this is no exception.

Easy to use

Great and easy to follow. My husband is using to learn to play guitar and hes learning so much quicker than I expected.

Doesnt work with windows xp and up. It kept freezing up and crashing after I tried to click on any of the lessons every time.

I found this quite useful in that it encourages me to pick up the guitar and play along to some of the tunes and it does help with getting your timing more accurate as I often find my playing speed varies when Im playing along on my own. There is a lot of variety in the songs from folk to rock and you are introduced to appropriate timing and strumming techniques in a very clear way. You can play along with the songs and then you get a virtual fretboard displayed and flashing notes to indicate where you - should be - up to; beware though the bloke who sings most of these songs has an absolutely awful voice.

Found this a great way to pick up and start playing from the very start. Next stop is the big time..

havent got into it very far, but it seems ok so far.....will keep working on it, as the weeks go by.....

Very, Very, Very GOOD!! Honestly, I learned more from this DVD than I have from a box full of DYI magazines, DVDs, running down several ghosts. I was 1/2 way through and sat back and had a think about what I just went thrght and was it worth the trouble?

Just started using this last night and am excited to move into chapter 4! Lots of features to help self-starters like me to try our hand at something new! Very easy to follow even if the playing of the instrument itself takes more finesse (I know Im just learning!)1
