Description
Homespun and String Letter Press, the publishers of Acoustic Guitar Magazine, have joined forces to create a DVD version of String Letter's best-selling guitar instruction book. This clearly organized, carefully graded set of lessons by popular guitarist and author David Hamburger teaches beginners to play guitar using the techniques and songs of American roots music. DVD 1 covers all the basic chords and flatpicking techniques; DVD 2 gives you a solid start on fingerpicking along with more advanced flatpicking styles. David gives total beginners a great start as he teaches you how to tune up, use the capo, play bass runs, vary your strumming patterns and form all the most important chords and chord progressions. DVD 2 continues on an intermediate level, giving those with some previous guitar experience a solid start with fingerpicking and an introduction to more advanced flatpicking styles, including scales and single note playing. Throughout the lessons you'll learn to play more than two-dozen classic songs drawn from blues, folk, country and bluegrass traditions, including Careless Love, Columbus Stockade, Darling Corey, In the Pines, Scarborough Fair, Man of Constant Sorrow, Stagolee, Hot Corn Cold Corn, East Virginia, House of the Rising Sun, Banks of the Ohio, The Crawdad Song, The Girl I Left Behind Me, Gambler's Blues and many others. Bonus: A four-song play-along session with guitarists Happy Traum and David Hamburger gives you a chance to practice your newly learned flatpicking instrumentals.

 Worthwhile purchase November 20, 2008
Kb Schumann (South Africa)
You definitely pick up tips from a DVD you probably won't get from a book. I'm still enjoying learning from this dvd, still on dvd 1 as I need to practise each lesson now quite a bit before moving on

I previously tried another DVD to learn guitar and made much more progress with this one. Go for it!

start from ground zero September 9, 2008
Gerald Manas
Im just learning to play, self taught, and this 2 disc set is perfect. Its more than what I expected. All basic info from holding pik to strumming to switching chords and some runs with explanation of where notes are within chords. Hamburger has a great method and personality that really makes it fun.

It's easy to follow, interesting, not too slow and he has a very dry sense of humor, which I find entertaining
