Product Review Summary: ACOUSTIC GUITAR 2 DAVID HAMBURGER GREAT PRODUCT. RECOMMEND FOR ANY BEGINNER GUITAR PLAYER. FORGET WHAT EVERYONE ELSE IS SAYING, SUCH AS THIS IS MORE LIKE FOR CHILDREN ETC,. THIS WILL GIVE YOU A GREAT FOUNDATION. YOU WILL NOT BURN OUT. EASY, AFFORDABLE. I COULD NOT AFFORD LEARN AND MASTER BY STEVE KRENZ PRICE TAG, WITH TODAYS ECONOMY. I HAVE BEEN PLAYING THE GUITAR CONSISTENTLY FOR 2 YEARS. I HAVE STUDY AND REVIEWED ABOUT ALL THAT IS OUT IN THE GUITAR WORLD. GO FOR THIS!!!!!
Product Review Summary: The Right Stuff for beginning guitarists... This book is excellent for beginning to intermediate acoustic guitarists 10 yrs. old and up. It's not the be-all and end-all, but does the job quite nicely. I've been using it to teach 3rd to 10th grade students privately for about 2 years now. It is a little light on teaching how to read the treble clef, but the tab explanations are clear. It has very good examples on the CD's also, which should definitely be part of the learning process.
Product Review Summary: Not bad Not bad. Starts simple and builds as you go along. Overall, if you're looking for a teach-yourself book, this one is not a bad place to start.
Product Review Summary: awesome book! i went into this book knowing most of the things he talks about but i still learned a lot from his method. he teaches you to play and sing along, which drastically improves your playing ability. although the concepts discussed are simple, there is a lot of basic stuff covered that you need to know as a guitar player, such as chord progressions.
the biggest advantage to this book is the play and learn method. if you're just after theory, "try play guitar in ten easy lessons".
Product Review Summary: The next best thing to lessons I've strummed my acoustic guitar since the heyday of the Kingston Trio, briefly taking lessons, and plowing through Lord knows how many "easy guitar method" books.
But only after I stumbled onto Hamburger's book did I really begin to play. His common sense explanations, practice exercises and recorded examples--played a tempo and then slow--have given me confidence. While his lessons are basic, the text is rooted in serious musicianship and musical theory, and does not insult my intelligence as an experienced choral singer.
I've learned more from Hamburger's book in a a few weeks than I had in
40 years.
