What You Will Learn?
- Part 1.
- In How to Read Music for Guitar - Beginner’s Class you will learn to read guitar sheet music and play the notes on guitar. By following my easy string-by-string method you'll learn 2 or 3 notes at a time on each string. Once you master a string, then move on to the next. With a little regular practice, you'll find yourself unconsciously knowing what to play when you see the notes. Just follow the method and have fun recognizing and playing the notes..
- This is a proven method that I developed while teaching guitar for (can you believe it?) 20 years! The FREE media content provided with the course is taken from my 3-book series Guitar in Real Time. With a little regular practice, you'll be able to experience the satisfaction of reading and playing music on guitar..
- What Exactly do You Learn?.
- Part 2.
- This section focuses on the other strings 4 through 6. These are the lower "bass" notes on guitar..
- You will also get to know about :.
- Bonus.
- As a BONUS, you also receive fingerstyle guitar lessons included with the course. Follow these lessons to develop a solid fingerstyle technique. Or, simply use any method of string picking that you choose..
- Fun Project.
- Once you complete the course, try the project to help you "burn in" what you just learned. It's always satisfying when you realize "I can do this!".
