Hal Leonard Guitar Method, Complete Edition: Books CD's 1, 2 and 3

My favorite book (2010-07-11) : 5/5
This is my favorite guitar handbook for beginners. It covers all the basic chords, string, and fingerings. It will have you playing simple songs in no time.
Great Stuff. (2010-06-01) : 5/5
The reasons I bought it have become what I like best about it. Actually, the fact that it had the plastic spiral comb binding, was cheap, and was 3 in one were the biggest factors in buying this over other products. I really like the binding--as a guitar instructor, it just makes things easier. I hate having to try and keep the book open during lessons. br /So, I've only gone through the book myself up to the point where you've learned all six strings in first position, and are beginning to use eighth notes and C#. I would hate this without the CD (it would be incredibly boring and you wouldn't have a musical context), but with the CD I really enjoy it! It's definitely a book for middle school on up. I wouldn't recommend it for younger learners. br /It's great stuff, and keeps a fast pace for learning!
Good Stuff (2010-04-19) : 5/5
Best starters book evar... teaches you at a good place, you learn sheet music at the same time. Always learn sheet music first!
Very quick delievery (2010-04-08) : 5/5
The book arrived very quickly to us in Doha. I am very impressed by the turn around in ordering the book and it being delievered.
Good for Beginners (2010-03-29) : 5/5
I have found this book to be very helpful in teaching myself how to play the guitar. I already knew how to read music, but if you don't already know this book does provide instruction on those basics. I like that it comes with a CD so you can hear the songs in the book being played. This is really helpful on some of the songs I am not familiar with.
