basic, I've had a guitar since 12 yrs old, now at 70, I find the basics a good primer for what's to come.

Creo que ha sido mi mejor eleccin. Sospecho voy bien encaminado a lograr mi objetivo de tocar guitarra instrumental.

By Gilberto Davila on 11/8/2020

Very happy with this course. The instructor is very good at teaching and you can see that he really loves music and is not doing this course only for making money. I'm not giving 5 stars only for 2 reasons: I would expect a little more material, maybe 2 or 3 extra songs. The second reason is that not all the exercises can be downloaded on PDF so you have to use the computer screen to practice. I definitely recommend this course for beginners.

ES un excelente curso para empezar a tocar la guitarra

By Ruth Olmer on 9/27/2020

Was bisher gesagt wurde, wusste ich schon, da ich kein kompletter Anfnger bin. Es ist aber sehr gut erklrt und es macht auch sehr viel Spa zuzuhren...auch wenn man es schon kennt. Ich bin sehr zufrieden.
Alles wird sehr gut und verstndlich erklrt. Die bungen zum Ende einer Lektion sind hilfreich und es macht einfach sehr viel Spa dem Kurs zu folgen. So macht das Spielen auf einer Klassikgitarre Spa!
