What’s Inside

Acoustic Guitar for Adults – Books 1 & 2 is a combination of two books: Book 1 is for the absolute beginner and covers your first steps, like playing standard chords (G, C, D, A, E, F and B-flat Major, as well as A and E Minor). Then you’ll combine those chords with basic rhythms in the exercises. When you’re ready, play your first whole songs using your new music skills. Book 2 is for adult students with some experience playing basic chords; it introduces major barre chords, minor barre chords and 7^th chords. These songs are a bit more challenging rhythmically and will continue to grow your music skills. The combination is a terrific method for learning acoustic guitar basics and techniques.
