Acoustic Guitar Lessons
The Acoustic Guitar Workshop offers a wide variety of ways in which to learn to play the acoustic guitar. The website is primarily aimed at the finger picking style of acoustic guitar. Providing a valuable resource for the would-be acoustic guitarist, the Acoustic Guitar Workshop offers video lessons, newsletters and a range helpful web resources and links.
There are a choice of formats for the lessons on offer including: acoustic and finger playing lessons; MP3s; tabs and instructional videos. The videos are particularly helpful because there are split screens which allow players to see both the left and right hands in close up whilst studying the techniques and frets. To see the two different hands and techniques at the same time can be invaluable when learning the acoustic guitar. It may sound simple, but the ability to restart, repeat and jump to any point in the video lessons is really useful and there is of course no embarrassment in requesting repetition!
The videos generally have the feel of a one-on-one, person to person music lesson. Of course there can be no direct interaction, so the videos will very occasionally feel a little impersonal but everything possible has been done to minimise this. The video lessons are almost entirely focussed on the split screens, allowing detailed focus on hands, accompanied by vital explanations via the voiceover for the majority of the lesson.
A large number of seasoned teachers and musicians have contributed to the Acoustic Guitar Workshop, with extensive recording and production experience. All are well informed, interesting and helpful. The video lessons are all accessible through Truefire which hosts a vast collection of video lessons. The site is home to videos from the Acoustic Guitar Workshop and to videos for many other different styles, so there are other options and routes to broaden the users` guitar horizons beyond solely the acoustic guitar.
Learning a musical instrument can be hugely rewarding, it provides an outlet to be creative and expressive in a way that may otherwise prove difficult to find. Playing the guitar can be as easy, complex or challenging as a player wants to make it and it doesn`t require the ability to sing or to play another instrument. Through the lessons on the Acoustic Guitar Workshop it is possible to learn the acoustic guitar without being able to read music -- a learning curve which deters many people from committing to learn an instrument.
