GCH Guitar Academy course unit 1 description
Using this course, the student actually learns how to play the guitar, and not how to play a few tunes.

If you want to play the guitar, GCH Guitar Academy course (Unit 1) is a must-have! This course has been developed and improved over more than fifteen years with students of all backgrounds and learning abilities. Because of this the course is now regarded as the best multimedia guitar course available anywhere in the world. It balances tunes with essential techniques and theory so that the student learns without getting bored.

This course has been used to teach absolute beginners to the point where they are playing professionally and writing/recording there own albums. It has also been used to teach theory and technique to guitarists who have been playing for 20 years plus, so they have improved within weeks of studying the course.

Each tune in the course has been specifically chosen to complement the lesson being taught. This allows the student to practice the technique or theory and therefore get a better understanding of the lessons. Also because the tunes are chosen this way the course has a complete mix of styles from heavy metal and grunge to folk and classical, giving the student a better appreciation of guitar music.

The greatest advantage of studying a structured course like this one is that the student actually learns how to play the guitar, and NOT how to play a few tunes. By understanding scale and chord theory as well as playing techniques a guitarist can become completely independent and able to play the music they really want to play without having to be taught every tune.

You can get all of this and judge it for yourself for less than the cost of a single private lesson. Remember though . . . . you need to practice.
